CASUARINA/NSW (December 16th/2020) : Aussie surf fans have proven the nation’s former masters of the sport aren’t forgotten in retirement. Surfing Australia Studios Season One of ‘RIVALS’ was a resounding success with both mainstream fans and core lords of the sport alike supporting the concept through both Channel 9’s free-to-air broadcast and mySURFtv’s YouTube offerings over the twelve-week season. From Nathan ‘Hog’ Hedge and Tommy Carroll’s pep talk at Narrabeen to Kai ‘Ottz’ Otton calling out old sparring partner Joel Parkinson, good hearted banter was the flavour of the season, not to mention great surfing.
