In Conversation: Sally Fitzgibbons and Stephanie Gilmore
Stephanie Gilmore: Hey Sal, it’s so rad to catch up! I saw that barrel you rode last weekend—absolutely gnarly. How’s everything going?
Sally Fitzgibbons: Steph! Long time no chat! Thanks, that wave had my name on it, couldn’t let it pass. Everything’s going pretty well! Training hard as usual, but also finding a bit of time to chill and enjoy life outside the surf. How about you?
Stephanie Gilmore: Same here! Balancing the grind with some downtime. I’ve been exploring some new music genres and even picked up the guitar again. It’s been refreshing, you know?
Sally Fitzgibbons: That’s awesome! Music is such a great way to unwind. I’ve been dabbling a bit in yoga and meditation lately. It’s really helping with my focus and staying sharp on the board.
Stephanie Gilmore: Meditation, huh? I’ve been meaning to dive into that! Is it really as game-changing as everyone says?
Sally Fitzgibbons: Totally, it’s a game-changer! It helps me center myself, especially before big competitions. You should give it a shot. Even just ten minutes a day can make a world of difference.
Stephanie Gilmore: I’m sold. Maybe we should trade—I’ll teach you a few guitar chords, and you can walk me through some meditation techniques. Deal?
Sally Fitzgibbons: Deal! This sounds like a party already. And who knows, maybe we’ll start a surf-yoga-rock band or something. ‘The Wave Warriors’ or ‘The Surf Shredders’—the possibilities are endless!
Stephanie Gilmore: I love it! Speaking of fun, have you checked out that new surf spot over on the East Coast? I’ve heard it’s a hidden gem, perfect waves, and hardly any crowd.
Sally Fitzgibbons: No way, I haven’t been there yet! Let’s plan a trip. It’s been too long since we hit the waves together. Consider it added to the bucket list!
Stephanie Gilmore: Surf trip is on! It’ll be epic—sun, surf, and a bit of music and meditation. Sounds like the perfect getaway. Can’t wait!
Sally Fitzgibbons: Me neither, Steph. It’s moments like these that make life so incredible. Here’s to more waves and wonderful memories!
Stephanie Gilmore: Cheers to that! Let’s keep pushing boundaries and living the dream. See you on the flip side, Sal!
Sally Fitzgibbons: See you soon, Steph! Keep riding those waves high!
