Party & Bullshit
April 9, 2022

Last night we hit Paddington to catch the first ep of ABC’s new drama.

And we can confirm Barons is defintely worth watching when it hits screens on April 24th. The show, which takes inspiration from the stories of Ripcurl, Billabong and Quiksilver, follows a group of surf-crazed mates who seemingly drift into the world of big business establishing brands that change the surfing world forever. Legendary surf filmer Taylor Steele has been enlisted to shoot all of the action in the water, so it doesn’t have any of those cringe moments that normally pop up in surf-dramas where someone takes off left and ends up on a right-hander.

The premiere at Paddington’s Verona Palace last night was bubbling with members of cast and production, as well as a healthy dose of members of the Aus surf scene. Check it out in the gallery above, including some snaps from the afterparty at The Rose:
