The Jaws Drama Between Kai Lenny and Laird Hamilton | Pinch My Salt |

Описание: Kai Lenny breaks down the real story behind his tension with Laird Hamilton — the miscommunication, the “never meet your heroes” moment, and how they eventually squashed it. In this episode of Pinch My Salt, we go deep on big-wave surfing, tow-in surfing, foiling, stand-up paddling, windsurfing, kiteboarding, and what it actually takes to survive places like Nazaré and Jaws (Peʻahi). Kai shares insane behind-the-scenes stories from the lineup, near-death wipeouts, the chaos between sets, and why the ocean rewards the people who “read the room.” We also hit surf culture, waterman mindset, Red Bull athlete life, sponsorship reality, and the funniest fuel secret ever: Taco Bell bean burritos. Plus: gym/swim drama, relationship “cycle” theory, and the kind of unhinged comedy you expect from the Pinchers. Subscribe for surf podcast clips, big wave stories, waterman talk, and comedy with Sterling & Cousin Ryan.
