This is the Hail Mary Podcast Ep. 2. A supplement to the upcoming film, where we dive a little deeper into the story of Balaram Stack and the people who have helped him along on his journey. On this episode, we follow the unlikely rise of Balaram from early grommet hood
to becoming a top ranked amateur and eventually being discovered by Quiksilver and becoming a marquee Junior surfer for them. We explore the sacrifices and support from his mother Mary and the people who helped him along the way such as Mike Nelson and Dave Juan at Unsound Surf Shop. We also get a glimpse into his initial taste of Hawaii, a place that would become key to his success as a professional surfer and his reputation for being a top Pipe specialist. We hope you enjoy episode 2 of the Hail Mary Podcast
