Creating more surfing opportunities for women
Show Notes
Steve is joined by Shasta O’Loughlin from the 13th Beach Boardriders to talk about how the club has created more surfing opportunities for women in their community.
A great conversation that proves that just because a group aren’t participating, it doesn’t mean they don’t want to.
Shasta talks about how they made surfing accessible and possible for all women, and how they overcame the fears of many that the surf is an intimidating and scary place.
