The new documentary Girls Can’t Surf depicts competitive surfing culture in the 1980s and 1990s – rearranging competition times so women had worse waves or putting their competition on at lunch so the audience was smaller. But it’s also about the world’s best female surfers and how they turned the tide on inclusion, recognition and equality. Legendary Australian surfer Pam Burridge, who was competing at this time and features in the documentary, chats to Bron about her experience.
