Episode 41: Which Kaipo is the best Kaipo? What do Kaipo, Dennis Rodman and Tupac have in common? Who called Danny out for hating on foil-surfing? And can you name any Australian Open winners now that it’s over? All that, the new Globe movie, the new Volcom movie, and so much less in your weekly surf podcast quiz, The Dooley!


About: From the brains of two idiots at this here magazine, every Wednesday morning the news from the world of surfing is smashed into a pop quiz for serial contestant, Danny Johnson (the creative director of Surfing World and host of Internet show, Weak Wrap) by quizmaster Mike Jennings (that’s me, a senior writer of Surfing World!). You can play along as Dannny does his best not to lose against himself each week in this lighthearted, insightful, and funny round up of everything in surf culture that week. Out of all the surf podcasts getting around at the moment, this is definitely one of them.

  • SURFING WORLD’S 50 MOST INTERESTING: @frankieharrer “According to @stephaniegilmore, Frankie is among an abnormally hardwired collection of surfers who have the “confidence in themselves and trust in the universe – they have this cosmic thing about them where they just know that they can go out, even at Pipeline and be just fine. She’ll give you this look, make this weird little noise, and just shrug her shoulders, as if to say ‘Well, we’re here now, so we may as well paddle out.’” SW424 is out now. Support independent surf culture. Words by @jackoneillpaterson 📷 @johnrespondek
  • SURFING WORLD’S 50 MOST INTERESTING, No.31 @jaiglindeman “I can’t count how many times I’ve been paddling through a lineup and the first glimpse of Jai has revealed him looking out from deep inside a tube, or dancing through an elegant carve, full of poise,” writes @wolffon35mm. “It’s that incredibly annoying quality that great surfers have: a knack of always being in the right place at the right time and an ability to read the ocean that goes beyond knowledge and into the realms of instinct. Jai can be a ghost at times, in a very Dave Rastovich kind of way. He picks his moments, dips in and out of the North Coast hordes, but often finds himself on the wave of the day.” SW424 is on sale now. Support independent surf. 📷 @swillpics
  • When we caught up with @kai_mckenzie to chat for the new mag, he’d just had his first surf since losing his leg to a great white back in July. It was a big first step, and he ain’t looking back from here. “I’m past it,” he says of the attack. “Yeah, that happened, but now I just don’t want to be associated with it. You go out and people look at you and shit. All these other people are trying to contact me, shark survivors and stuff, but I don’t want to be a shark survivor. I just want to be fucking me. I would rather be defined as a guy who is going to be back out there and fucking killing it with a new leg. I’ll be back out there doing everything again. I can’t wait. That’s how I want people to know me.” We chat with Kai in SW424, SW’s 50 Most Interesting issue. 📷 @joshuatabone
  • SURFING WORLD’S 50 MOST INTERESTING: No.21, Nathan Hedge At 45, @nathanhedge_ has already lived a big life, crashed and burned a couple of times, but has been sober for a decade and today is focused purely on life with his daughter… and his surfing. Hog has had his eye on this South Coast bommie for a while now, and earlier this year finally took it on. “I can’t go back and put an old head on young shoulders,” he says. “Through that journey, it was what it was, but that’s where the strength and the power came from. Today, I’m like wow, this is still happening. There’s this whole longevity. So, I’m actually really stoked that it was gnarly, because that’s what it took to get me to the fucking big burnout thing and to start over again. If I stayed in the middle of the road, maybe I’d still be in the middle of the road, and there’d be no Cloudbreaks or no South Coast bommies today.” SW424 is on sale now. 📷 @tomhealyphoto
  • SURFING WORLD’S 50 MOST INTERESTING: No.8, Kirk Jenkins “It’s weird where I sit in this community right now,” @thisiskirkjenkins says of his hometown of Cronulla. “I’m 39, I don’t have kids, I don’t have a mortgage, I don’t have a wife. I’m straight, I’m single. I live in a motor home. I’m an artist. I cruise around the streets, draw with chalk on the walls, and I know everyone here. I just feel a huge amount of acceptance. I think people have come to accept me as I am.” SW’s 50 Most Interesting issue is on sale now: 📷 @southofthebridge
  • SURFING WORLD’S 50 MOST INTERESTING: No.2 Noa Deane As a surfer, you are what you surf, and a wave-rich country like Australia offers an endless variety of parallel surfing lives you could be living. “It’s all just different, isn’t it?” Noa ponders. “You have to do stints everywhere in Oz to become a better surfer. Like, if you only lived in Margies, it’s so hard to do a turn there, I swear. I think here, too. It feels like you don’t do turns here.” Noa laughs of his home today down south. “So, I’m stoked at least I was up north for my whole life till now, at least I got some turns done!” SW424 is on sale now. 📷 @benjacksonphoto
  • Sad news overnight with the passing of Phyllis O’Donell… 1964 world champion and one of the hugest characters in Australian surfing. Before there was @naughty_pauls there was even Naughtier Phyllis. ‘Oh, I tricked around,’ remembers Phyllis of her surfing at the ‘64 World Titles at Manly. ‘I didn’t have a clue; they just played the groovy music and I relaxed and if they hadn’t played the groovy music I don’t think I would have won. I was a totally hopeless dancer; it was only on a board. ‘They announced the women’s before they should have and I was up there with Linda,’ recalls Phyllis of the presentation. ‘They announced that I had won the women’s. I didn’t win any money for the world title; I won the trophy and a carton of Craven A cigarettes.’ She pauses before admitting, ‘And I smoked them all! Linda and I went up to the Manly Pacific and we had a couple of noggins to celebrate.’ 📷 Ron Perrott, John Pennings
  • SURFING WORLD’S 50 MOST INTERESTING… Ellis Ericson @ellisericson has gone down the rabbit hole with design ideas, most notably George Greenough’s edge board. He’s recently moved south to a stretch of coast where he’s got some land, built a shaping shed and a garden, and spends his days cutting blanks and working on cutting edge craft. For SW424 he up with old mate and fellow shaper @goodbugmix for a chat. “Yeah, I think if you’re surfing and hand-shaping, you will naturally spend enough time with that surfboard to make it your own. I think that’s the great thing about hand shaping; if you do it enough, you’ll shine through. I feel like your character will shine through in your boards and it’s like a reflection of your personality. I feel like you can see that with surfboards if you’re looking at it.” SW424 is on sale now. 📷 @short_films_
