RE-AIR: Molly Picklum - Her breakout season, The talented new generation of women on tour, Reaching World No. 1 for the first time, Overcoming the Mid-season Cut, Viral surf video parts, and Honoring inspiring female athletes in Portugal

The Lineup with Dave Prodan - A Surfing Podcast

This week, we are re-airing our episode from 2023 with CT standout, Molly Picklum. The Championship Tour’s current World No. 1 surfer and Rip Curl athlete Molly Picklum joins the pod for a special Women’s History Month episode to talk about her breakout season. She describes her confident mindset entering each event, her first impressions of Portugal, and what it’s been like sitting atop the rankings and capturing the yellow leader jersey for the first time in her career. She discusses her road to the tour, her entry into surfing, the strong surfing town she grew up in, how working with coach Glenn Hall has changed her approach, her relationship with Rip Curl, and how making the Challenger Series coming out of Australia is so difficult. Molly also touches on her video part that blew up in Postcards from Morgs, overcoming the Mid-season Cut last year, learning to trust herself, the uber-talented young generation of women on tour, and the woman she chose to honor for International Women’s Day.
