In this episode, I decode French Big Wave Surfer Justine Dupont who became World Champion at the age of 15 and probably surfed the biggest wave ever as a woman. Together with her boyfriend and Bodysurf World Champion, Fred, she surfs the biggest waves the ocean can create in Nazaré, Portugal. Justine tells us about her relation to fear, how she crashed in 2018 and how her and Fred deal with the massive risks. You will hear about Justine’s way from being scared to surf a one meter wave to the feeling of surfing a building of seven storeys.Go check out the crazy Vlog of our trip to Nazaré: https://youtu.be/rG2KDaH1wbcClick here for the Video Podcast on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Zaemrf-ml-QJustine also did a Vlog of the trip: https://youtu.be/KdAeK__xrlwDon’t miss out when we drop the next episode next week with American fencer Miles Chamley-Watson and subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, on any other podcast app and on https://www.redbull.com/int-en/projects/red-bull-decoding-athletes-podcast.If you’re enjoying the series or inspired by the stories you’ve heard, get in touch with us using #DecodingAthletes on social.Follow me on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/matthiasdandoisTwitter: https://twitter.com/MatthiasDandoisFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MatthiasDandoisYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/MatthiasAlex1TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@matthiasdandois Follow Justine Dupont:Instagram: http://instagram.com/justinedupont33YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/JustineDupontSurfDecoding Athletes with Matthias Dandois is produced by ASI Media Events (Matthias Dandois & Pierre Blondel) and Maniac Studios (Daniel Sprügel & Simon Wimmeler) for Red Bull Media House.
