    2021’s Best Chats: Peter Mel, Chris Burkard, Jon Frank & Andy King

    2021’s Best Chats: Peter Mel, Chris Burkard, Jon Frank & Andy King

    Whether 2021 was an annus horribilis for you or not, well it’s all behind us now. For this episode, It’s Not Length looks back on some of the very best chats of the year that was, as your hosts Evans and Mondy brought you insights from an array of some of the legendary folk in the sport.

    Peter The Condor Mel tells us all about becoming the Mav’s GOAT and riding the best wave ever at Mav’s - possibly the best wave anywhere, ever - back in January.

    Next up photographer/explorer Chris Burkard checks in from the wilds of Yosemite to chat all things travel and adventure surf photography. The line is crackly, but the insight and inspiration is tack sharp.

    Jon Frank tells the story of filming Litmus back in 1995, and the Irish surf scene back at a time when relatively little was known about the surf riches of the Emerald Isle. Now co-owner of Australia’s legendary Surfing World Magazine, Frank has long been one of the most artistic surf photographers in the game.

    When Gabriel Medina sat down to mastermind his World Title winning 2021 campaign. He called Fanning. Fanning called Kingy. We called Kingy too, and he told us about working with Gab, life on tour, his own fascinating backstory, but above all gave performance surfing advice for Evans and Mondy.

    Best Wishes for 2022 from everyone at Wavelength.

    Ep 27: The Winds of Change

    Evans & Mondy would like to borrow your ears to float some great great surf chat in your general direction. Topics up for discussion in this latest episode of the pod include Wozzle worries, recent mountain forays, while Paul is brave enough to tell Ben the tough truths about his sub-standard written work that only a true pal would.

    Meanwhile, Ben hints to a slightly worrying mental state that means he’s still caught up in a lingering Azores Pro finals day emotional high, even though the event was actually so long ago, Paul forgot they were even there. Awks.

    Up for discussion this time out…
    Drugs: Weed, Hapé (shamanic snuff), Oxy
    Sports: Snowboarding, surfing, F1, cricket
    Culture: Jazz (experimental feminist trumpet), The Scorpions, Pete Mel’s Movie Everything & All, Craig Ando in Ceremony, Patrick Raddin Keefe

    FOIL WARS: Paul gets into deep and lengthy foil beef with a dangerous, angry kook, yet lives to trim another day with a typical display of resilience, diplomacy and calm under pressure.

    ITALO… BIT OF A C**T?: What’s happened to the 2019 World Champ? Is having a gold chain minion conducive to being a good human? Find out.

    TOM MOREY RIP: Mad cap inventor, innovator, free thinker and jazz enthusiast moves on up to drop knee the endless boogie wave in the sky.
