The sun beats down on Bondi Beach, a chaotic symphony of tourists and crashing waves. Yet, the heat isn't what drew you here. A childhood memory lingers: a rogue wave, panic, and the steady hand of a lifeguard pulling you to safety. That moment defined a purpose. Now, having completed rigorous training, you stands ready. Hoppo leads the way into the watchtower, walkie-talkie in hand, pointing out the team—Azza B, Reidy, Harries, Glick, Quiggers, Jethro, Chase, Chappo, and Ryan—spread across the sand. Terry is absent, ill. Hoppo gestures to the array of rescue gear and medical supplies. “It’s a lot at first, mate,” he says with a reassuring smile, “but it’ll become second nature. You’ll do just fine.”
