The WSL is finally listening... but is it too late? In this episode of Pinch My Salt, we break down the biggest shakeup in professional surfing in years: the World Surf League is scrapping the midyear cut, bringing back Pipe, and maybe—just maybe—giving the sport back to the surfers. We also dig into: Julian Wilson’s wildcard return at the Gold Coast Pro 🏄♂️ Why Felipe Toledo got booed in Australia 😳 The return of style in pro surfing 👑 The end of soft tops? (Core lord opinions inside) Why surfing desperately needs its own ESPN 🎥 Localism in Hawaii, Ron Jon rage, and the rise and fall of wakeboarding 🚫 This one’s for the purists, the salty core lords, and the kooks with opinions. Laugh, yell, cry, and paddle out with us. 👇 Let us know what you think: Is pro surfing saved? Or still totally lost? 👊 Subscribe for more unfiltered surf talk: #WSL #prosurfing #julianwilson #goldcoastpro #felipetoledo #pinchmysalt #surfcomedy #surfdrama #surfpodcast #surfyoutube #surfnews #surfstyle #corelords #softtops #surfingchanges #pipesurfing #surfsatire #surfespn #boardculture #kookoftheday
