How arctic surfing (and a sandwich-snatching eagle) shaped Freia’s passion for boardsports

What do Japan, Iceland, and a stolen sandwich have in common? Freia. In this episode, we meet 25-year-old filmmaker and Arctic surfer Freia, whose unlikely surf journey started on a family vacation in Japan and eventually led her to the freezing lineups of Reykjavík. We talk about her first surf (and first eagle encounter), why she made a documentary about women in boardsports, and the quiet pressures female surfers still face in a male-dominated scene. From Hoddevika to equal pay in surf comps—this one’s a joy.
