Word of the week is flying kickout—you will want to try it after hearing this

What do pullouts, flying kickouts, and island pullouts have in common? More than you think. In this episode, we trace the evolution of the pullout — from the days of heavy, finless longboards where stopping was nearly impossible, to the stylish, safety-first exits of modern surfing. You’ll hear about the flashy chaos of the flying kickout during the shortboard revolution, the invention of the leash that changed everything, and the graceful island pullout that still shines in small surf.
