My Playlist: Surfer Stephanie Gilmore shares her 5 favourite tracks.

We caught up with pro surfer Stephanie Gilmore to find out what she’s been up to, what she’s up to next and get a taste of her favourite music… presenting Stephanie’s playlist! After a brief chat to the girl herself…

What was a highlight for you in 2013?

Meeting and chatting with Rodney Mullen, he’s the coolest!

What are you looking forward to in 2014?

New adventures to some new destinations. Surfing some good waves and the new events we have on the ASP world tour for the women in Fiji, California and Maui, Hawaii.

And congratulations on taking out the Roxy Pro at Snapper Rocks… what do you feel pushed you over the line there that hadn’t been working in your favour in 2013?

I was definitely in a better headspace this year, that and I just really wanted to win to prove something to myself. We also had better waves, which I tend to perform better in.

If you could join any musician/group on stage who would it be?

The Voluptuous Horror of Karen Black or Rolling Stones…

And now, for the playlist… enjoy five of Stephanie’s favourite tracks:
