Justine Dupont – French Surfer, Series 1 Episode 5

Decoding Athletes

In this episode, I decode French Big Wave Surfer Justine Dupont who became World Champion at the age of 15 and probably surfed the biggest wave ever as a woman. Together with her boyfriend and Bodysurf World Champion, Fred, she surfs the biggest waves the ocean can create in Nazaré, Portugal. Justine tells us about her relation to fear, how she crashed in 2018 and how her and Fred deal with the massive risks. You will hear about Justine’s way from being scared to surf a one meter wave to the feeling of surfing a building of seven storeys.
