Hosted by Rachael Tilly and Shannon Hughes, The Double-Up features current women's surfing news along with deeper conversations delving into particular topics within the women's surf world.
From California and currently living in Australia, Rachael set her name in surf history in 2015 when she won the WSL World Longboard Title, holding the record of surfing’s youngest ever World Champion. While she continues to compete on the Longboard Tour, she has also taken a full-time job with the World Surf League office in Australia, based in Coolangatta, Gold Coast.
A commentator with wide-ranging experience, Shannon has been involved in multiple roles within surfing and brings her extensive knowledge to the podcast. Growing up in a classic Southern California beach family, Shannon has been a surfer almost from birth. While the majority of her current work comes from shortboarding, longboarding is her true love.
