Isabella Nichols' Unforgettable Rookie Season, Wave Pool Engineering And The Rip Curl WSL Finals

Episode 74

WSL Championship Tour rookie Isabella Nichols talks about her unique and memorable first season on tour. She describes waiting a whole year between qualification and her first event, her strong Australian leg that included a second-place finish at Newcastle, and the challenges of surfing at Surf Ranch for the first time. She discusses pursuing her education while chasing her dream of making the tour, getting a degree in engineering, and her desire to work with wave pool technology. Isabella also touches on her scariest session at Sunset Beach, working as a stunt double for Blake Lively and her strategy and preferred seeding if she were to make the Rip Curl WSL Finals.
