On this episode of the Salted Spirit Podcast, Malin Kirjonin, a Swedish stunt double living the dream in South Africa joins us after her choppy sunset surf and a full day of filming. Gear up and hear stories of her diving through windows, ditching motorcycles mid air and bobbing in big ocean waves behind the camera.
