Girl's Can't Surf: Film Director - Christopher Nelius - a podcast by Wax Radio

Girls Can’t Surf shares the untold story of a ragtag bunch of inspired, renegade Australian, American, and South African women surfers who battled against inequality, homophobia, and chauvinism of their fellow sportsmen, sponsors, and institutions. As the sea ebbed and flowed, so did their struggle, fortunes, and notoriety of these pioneering surfers, but nothing kept these radical women from catching their own waves.

On this episode of Swell Season Surf Radio, host Karen Song had the privilege of interviewing the director, Christopher Nelius on the upcoming release and the process of making this film.
The films release couldn’t be timelier as women in surfing continues to rise. With the WSL’s recent pioneering of equal gender pay and the sports debut in the Olympics on the near horizon, the time is ripe to look to the past, to see truly how far the sport has come, and the women who made the sacrifices, laid the foundations, and fought for what it is today.

This episode was Recorded with the Newstand Studio at Rockefeller Center in the heart of NYC and is distributed by WAX.Radio
