Rockaway’s Yeasty Revolution: Creating Inclusive Surf Spaces
Description
Today we chat with Gina Jurlando, the founder of Yeasty Boys, a fem focused, beginner surf club and community group based in Rockaway Beach, New York. Yeasty Boys was born from the desire to support diverse groups of people in the surfing world, and stand against the intimidation factor that often coincides with the sport. In this episode we discuss allyship, the New York surf scene, creating supportive spaces in surfing, how surf therapy can work in community groups, and giving back to the neighborhoods we live in.
