S2 E 8 The Good Enough Dad with Glenn Hall & Ace Buchan – How surfing can build strong family bonds

Professional surfing legends Adrian “Ace” Buchan and Glenn “Micro” Hall join Maggie Dent to reflect on their journeys — not just through waves, but through fatherhood. Adrian, who spent 16 years on the World Surf League tour and twice defeated Kelly Slater, now serves as chair of Surfing Australia. Glenn, a former pro who has become one of the sport’s most respected coaches, shares his experience balancing career and family life.

Together, they explore the parallels between surfing and parenting — resilience, presence, identity — and what the ocean continues to teach them as dads raising the next generation.
