How much can fitness really impact your surfing? In this week’s episode of the Basis Surf Podcast, I’m joined by Coach Lenny V (@coachlennyv) and Cooper Walters (@cooper_walters) to share how dropping 30 pounds has completely transformed my surfing. From quicker pop-ups, catching more waves and surfing for longer. If you're ready to take your fitness and surfing to the next level, you’re not going to want to miss this episode!
