EP 122: Tatiana Weston-Webb - Competing for the World Title at the Rip Curl WSL Finals, The women’s historic return to Teahupo’o, The road to the Finals, Her inspirations in Kauai, Her career journey, and How her outsider mentality makes her a contender

World No. 3 Tatiana Weston-Webb joins the podcast before she
competes for the World Title at the Rip Curl WSL Finals. She breaks
down her preparation for the title-deciding event at Trestles, how
she’s been training, how she feels about her seeding, the support
team behind her, and her strategy once she’s in the water. She
talks about the last few events of the regular season leading up to
the Finals, the women’s historic return to Teahupo’o, competing in
serious conditions, what it was like staying in Tahiti, and dealing
with the pressure of the fight for the WSL Final 5. She looks back
at the 2021 Rip Curl WSL Finals, coming so close to her first World
Title but finishing second to Carissa Moore, the challenging
offseason that followed, working with a sports psychologist, and
starting this season at Pipeline. Tati also details her career
journey up to this point, from her upbringing and inspirations in
Kauai, the importance of Brazilian culture in her life, her
introduction to surfing, and how her outsider approach makes her a
World Title contender. Learn more about Tati here and follow her
