Tracks presents the first in a three part series where Christian Fletcher speaks his mind on the big issues in surfing. “The whole world is too PC I think,” laments Fletcher. “Everything is just too politically correct…they need to get a sense of humour.” Shot on the Gold Coast earlier this year during the Quiksilver Pro, the Don of aerial surfing shoots from the hip and calls it how he sees it. “When you bring money into it people are really conservative. They’re scared that they are going to say something that is going to offend somebody and they are going to lose their sponsorship or something like that.” Stay tuned for part two and three dropping this week.
