On Instagram you see the clip. Five, six, seven seconds on the nose, on someone's best day, on their best wave. You don't see the eighty attempts it took. So I'm going to show you my messy middle.

🌊 Free Noseride Guide — the first thing I'd hand my 2012 self: https://surfsociete.com/noseride-guide 📍 The Noseride Blueprint — twelve weeks inside The Surf Société, Starting Aug 18: Surfsociete.com/noseride-blueprint 📖 Read the written version: I Spent Ten Years Wanting to Noseride I wanted to noseride for over a decade and I couldn't do it. Not for lack of wanting. I watched the one video that existed in 2012 — Kelia Moniz at Waikiki, toes over the nose — and I knew that was the thing I wanted. Then I spent the next ten years guessing at how to get there. I bought the wrong board because I didn't know what to ask for. I practiced cross stepping on my bedroom floor next to my laptop. I collected kind, contextless advice from better surfers. I paid $250 for an hour with an instructor who told me "if you feel like cross stepping, take a step," and then spent the lesson talking to her friends in the lineup. And then, slowly, I stopped saying the goal out loud. This episode is the whole story — including the part nobody talks about, which is what it feels like to quietly get okay with not progressing at something you really want. It turned out it was never a talent gap. It was an information gap, a mindset gap, and a support gap, and all three of those are fixable. If you've been saying you want to noseride for longer than you'd like to admit, this one is for you. In this episode: Why the board you were sold probably isn't a noserider, and what actually makes oneWhat length board you need to noseride, and why length is the smaller half of the answerCross stepping vs shuffling to the nose, and whether it mattersWhy your nose sinks every time you get to the front of the boardHow to get real value out of a surf coach, and the language you need before you hire oneWhat to do when Instagram stops being inspiring and starts feeling like a verdictHow long it actually takes to learn to noserideSend us Fan Mail!

Working on your cross-stepping or noseriding? 👉  Learn more about the Noseride Blueprint Watching Gidget as a little girl changed the entire course of Susie Terry’s life. What started with a surfboard strapped through the sunroof of her mom’s VW Bug turned into a lifetime of chasing waves, building community, and staying stoked well into her seventies. In this episode of Confessions of a Surf Lady, The First Women’s Surfing Podcast™, I talk with Surfer Susie about growing up surfing in Ventura in the late 1950s, teaching herself how to surf before leashes or wetsuits existed, and what it’s been like watching surf culture evolve over the decades. We also talk about aging, fitness, social media fame, and why surfing still gives her the same excitement it did as a little girl. Susie’s energy is infectious. She’s hilarious, grounded, wildly relatable, and a reminder that surfing doesn’t have to stop at a certain age. If anything, her story shows how the ocean can keep giving back for an entire lifetime.  🌊 Main Themes Growing Up in the Original Gidget Era: After watching Gidget as a young girl, Susie immediately knew she wanted to surf. With no surf mentors, no wetsuits, and no leash, she taught herself at the Ventura Pier and became part of an early generation of women surfers.Surfing as the Fountain of Youth: At 77, Susie still paddles out and says surfing keeps her feeling alive, connected, and young at heart. She talks openly about aging, staying active, and the gratitude she feels every time she gets in the water.Unexpected Social Media Fame: What started as simple beach selfies with help from her granddaughter turned into viral videos, recognition in the lineup, and a whole new community online.Follow Surfer Susie  Instagram: @surfersusie66  TikTok: @therealsurfersusie Show Resources  📲 Follow Laura Day → @confessionsofasurflady 💌 Join my Newsletter here.

Chey’s story will leave you inspired. As a mother, a surfer living with MS, and a woman paddling out in Santa Cruz’s notoriously aggressive lineups, she reminds us that strength isn’t about perfection—it’s about choosing joy, resilience, and community. In this episode of Confessions of a Surf Lady, The First Women’s Surfing Podcast™, I talk with Chey, a Surf Société member whose journey spans from growing up around lakes in Canada to raising a family that surfs together in Mexico and now living in Santa Cruz. Along the way, she’s navigated health challenges, learned how to read the ocean, and discovered the confidence it takes to hold her ground in one of the world’s most aggressive surf lineups. Chey’s story is a reminder that surfing is layered, personal, and ever-changing. Through The Surf Société, she’s found not just skills and knowledge, but a supportive community of women who celebrate each other’s wins. From reflecting on tough sessions to choosing joy in the lineup, her perspective will inspire you to keep going, keep learning, and keep protecting your stoke. Main Themes Surfing as a Lifelong Journey Chey shares her path from early water experiences in Canada to surf trips in Costa Rica and Mexico, and finally finding home in California.Confidence in the Lineup From Santa Cruz aggression to run-ins with entitled surfers, Chey explains how she’s learned to protect her energy and hold her ground. “You can choose to paddle in—you’re not giving into them, you’re protecting your positive experience.”The Power of Community and Knowledge Chey describes how Surf Société gave her confidence, ocean knowledge, and a sisterhood where everyone’s progress feels like a shared win.Show Resources 🌊 Join our global women’s surf community — The Surf Société — and start your free 7-day trial today → Join Now Learn more first → Surf Société Overview Follow Laura Day → @confessionsofasurflady Follow Surf Société → @surfsociete 🛍 Shop Surf Société → shop.surfsociete.com How to Support the Podcast 💙 Support our sponsors – They help keep this show going.🛍 Shop Surf Société – Support women-centered surfwear and community.⭐ Leave a Review – Help more women find us on Apple Podcasts & Spotify.📲 Share this episode – Send it to a surf sister who needs to hear it.Send us Fan Mail!

Working on your cross-stepping or noseriding? 👉  Learn more about the Noseride Blueprint What does it feel like to paddle out in your fifties, sixties, or even seventies? For the women of the Sassy Silver Surfers Club, it feels like freedom. It feels like strength. And most of all, it feels like proof that surfing doesn’t have an age limit. In this episode of Confessions of a Surf Lady, The First Women’s Surfing Podcast™, I’m joined by co-founders Lisa Alfano and Inessa Love, who started surfing later in life and quickly realized how few role models they saw in the lineup. Together, they created the Sassy Silver Surfers—a vibrant community for women 50+ who are showing up with courage, joy, and inspiration. Through heartfelt confessions from their members, Lisa and Inessa share stories of women who started surfing at 57, became instructors in their fifties, and even returned to the waves at 72. These are stories of resilience, self-discovery, and the wisdom that comes from embracing life fully at every stage. This is a conversation that will make you laugh, tear up, and walk away believing that your best waves may still be ahead of you. Main Themes Redefining Surfing After 50 Lisa and Inessa share their personal journeys—one from triathlons, the other from Hawaii—and how they built a thriving community that proves surfing isn’t just for the young.Challenging Ageism in Surf Culture The women of Sassy Silver Surfers are breaking stereotypes and pushing back against the idea that you’re “too old” to surf.

Elaine Abonal was an exchange student in Florida when she first saw surfing—and something inside her lit up. But it wasn’t until she returned to the Philippines and realized there were waves in her own country that everything changed. In this episode of Confessions of a Surf Lady: The First Women’s Surfing Podcast™, Elaine shares how her surf journey started by breaking cultural expectations and carving out a new path in the Philippine surf scene. As a Filipina surfer, community builder, and entrepreneur, she’s created something truly powerful: a space where people feel welcome, safe, and inspired to surf. We talk about her experience originally being one of the few women in the water in Siargao, what it's like to build surf culture from the ground up, and why inclusion—especially in the global surf conversation—has to come from people who live and breathe the culture every day. Main Themes: 🌍 Surfing as a Cultural Awakening “I thought I had to go far away to learn to surf. I didn’t realize the waves were in my own country.” – Elaine Abonal💪 Creating Safe Spaces in the Lineup From guiding tourists to teaching locals, Elaine opens up about her mission to make surfing feel welcoming—especially for women in the Philippines.🏄🏽 Representation in Surf Culture Why it matters that the face of surfing includes Filipina surfers, and how surf media often misses the real stories from local communities.🌀 Surfing as a Mirror for Growth We explore how surfing helped Elaine confront fear, trust herself, and return to joy—even through life’s personal and professional challenges.

Working on your cross-stepping or noseriding? 👉  Learn more about the Noseride Blueprint What if your 'summer body' wasn’t something to fix—but something to fuel your surf stoke? If you're tired of seeing summer framed as a time to shrink yourself, this episode of Confessions of a Surf Lady: The First Women’s Surfing Podcast™ is your permission slip to redefine what it means to feel good in your body—on land and in the lineup. In this raw, unfiltered conversation, Surf Société Member Danyelle Carpenter and I reflect on body image, the toxic messages women receive from a young age, and how to gently dismantle the beliefs we inherited about how we’re “supposed” to look. We talk about what it means to build a nourishing, sustainable relationship with your body—especially in surf culture, where expectations can be as rigid as they are outdated. From the pressure of "getting beach ready" to the insidious marketing of inclusivity in surf brands that still only reshare flat-stomached influencers, this one gets real. But it’s also full of laughs, healing moments, and the powerful reminder that we get to redefine what it means to show up for ourselves—especially in a swimsuit. Whether you’re navigating your own summer body thoughts or just need to hear two surf sisters keeping it honest and tender, this episode is for you. Main Themes: ✨ In this episode we explore: The rule I live by: “Never go to war with your body”Why body neutrality might be more helpful than body positivityThe truth about surfing, endocrine health, and emotional weightHow women are marketed to—even by brands claiming to celebrate usWhy I stepped back from my surfwear line (and what that taught me)Resources: Surf Société Membership: Join The Surf Société with 7 days free.Shop Dip and get 15% OFF with the code "confessionsofasurflady" at checkout at Dipalready.comThe Surfing Copywriter: Learn more about his work at www.thesurfingcopywriter.com.How to Support the Podcast: 💙 Support our sponsors – They help keep this show going!🛍️ Shop at shop.surfsociete.com – Support women-centered surfwear and community.⭐ Leave a Review – It helps more women find us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.📲 Share this episode – Send it to a surf sister who needs to hear this.🌊 Join Surf Société – Come learn and surf better inside a powerful, like-minded women's community.Send us Fan Mail!
