Surf journalist and beach commentator Chris Binns joins The Lineup podcast to break down the Western Australia Margaret River Pro Presented by Bonsoy. As the Aussie Treble rolls on, George Pittar claimed a career-defining first CT win over a murderers row of competitors, including an in-form and current World #1 Gabriel Medina. Lakey Peterson returned to the top in powerful form, claiming her second Margaret River win. The conversation dives deeper into the emotional weight lifted off former mid-year cut victims “rewriting their Margies stories,” and why Gabriel Medina looks more dangerous than ever. They also unpack a tough start for the 2026 rookie class across two of the Tour’s most technical waves, ongoing format debates and overlapping heats, and how event pacing shaped the viewing experience. Binnsy touches on Carissa Moore’s inspired comeback mindset, the evolving CT rankings after two unpredictable events, and why Margaret River remains one of the most psychologically demanding stops on Tour – all setting the stage for what’s to come at Stop #3, Snapper Rocks.Follow Binnsy here.Relive the Western Australia Margaret River Pro.Stay tuned to Stop #3 on the Championship Tour, the Bonsoy Gold Coast Pro Presented by GWM, May 1 - 11.Join the The Lineup Podcast Mega League Fantasy and the Lineup Podcast Brackets for your chance to win Prizes!
