This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode we connect with fellow Canadian waterman Michael Pisarczyk—a dedicated foiler based in Sarnia, Ontario, right on the shores of Lake Huron. Recorded as fall conditions ramp up on the Great Lakes, these two passionate riders share stories from the water, celebrating the world-class (yet underrated) foiling potential hidden in these massive inland seas.Episode Overview:Michael's backyard access to Lake Huron—convenient home sessions, epic downwind runs (30-50K along the coast or on the mini-Hood River-like St. Clair River), and why almost any wind direction works hereHis multi-discipline journey: from youth sailing and windsurfing, to high-school kiting obsession, strapless surfboarding, and how foiling (wing, prone, pump, downwind) reignited the stoke with lower-wind windows and endless glidePair winging progression: starting rough, unlocking upwind tacks against river current, and the unique freedom (and challenges) of no lines or booms—just pure hand-held power on small sinker boardsThat unforgettable first committed prone downwind run: full-send on the industrial-lined river, no falls allowed, pure focus on older square boards with paddle startsBuilding the "Great Lakes Waterman" channels to showcase lake potential—inspiring more locals (and globals) with stunning drone footage, while growing a small but frothing communityFamily foiling fun: gently introducing his 9- and 7-year-old kids to e-foils (knees-first mastery turning to stand-up runs) and side-by-side cruising sessionsE-foiling's role in scratching the itch on flat days, keeping skills sharp with endless turns, and the exciting growth of competitive tours like the Surf Foil Tour (SFT)Why the Great Lakes are tailor-made for modern foiling—long fetch for rolling swell in lighter winds, massive playgrounds, and those rare but magical "world-class" bangers that make the chase worthwhileFrom cold-water commitment to uniting disciplines and dreaming of Canadian SFT events, this chat is a love letter to Great Lakes foiling—and a call to get more people out experiencing the magic.If you've ever chased lake swell, battled commitment points in downwinders, or wondered why these massive freshwater oceans deserve way more foiling love… this is it.Follow Michael Pisarczyk → @great.lakes.waterman (YouTube/Instagram) | https://www.greatlakeswaterman.com

The FBI announced it had prevented a deadly terrorist attack that would have taken place on New Year's Eve by a radical group called the Turtle Island Liberation Front. Glenn speaks with Capital Research Center investigative researcher Ryan Mauro to discuss the seriousness of this potentially deadly attack. Glenn and Stu discuss the anti-Semitic attack that occurred on Bondi Beach in Australia and the suspect's mother's reaction to her son allegedly perpetrating this horrific atrocity. The guys also discuss the dehumanization the Left engages in when it comes to political rivals. Glenn tells the story of the great Christmas truce during World War I, when German and British soldiers unanimously agreed to a ceasefire for the holiday. Glenn plays his latest AI Christmas song: "For a Night, We Were Human." Glenn and Stu discuss President Trump's disappointing post about Rob Reiner's death and the GOP's mostly unanimous condemnation of the post. Glenn analyzes the Christmas classic "It's a Wonderful Life" and how its message has only become more relatable over time. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch, as they serve up all good martinis and discuss the FBI thwarting a major terrorist plot, another conservative elected president in South America, and growing outrage in Minnesota over massive welfare fraud and Gov. Tim Walz's handling of the scandal.First, they applaud the FBI for thwarting a chilling plot by the Turtle Island Liberation Front to carry out a coordinated bombing campaign across Los Angeles beginning on New Year's Eve. Authorities describe the group as pro-Palestine, anti-government, and anti-capitalist. Jim and Greg are grateful for the arrests and are reminded that evil people love to plan horrible things around the holidays.Next, they celebrate the election of conservative Jose Antonio Kast as the next president of Chile. While the media absurdly label him as "far-right," Kast is a conservative Catholic who wants to crack down on crime and secure the border. He's also called a neo-liberal on economics, which means he's for smaller government, free markets, and deregulation. Seems like a leader the U.S. might be able to work with.Finally, they discuss new polling from Minnesota showing deep voter frustration with the state's sprawling welfare fraud scandal. Nearly 80 percent of residents say it is a major problem or the worst problem facing the state, while just 14 percent believe Gov. Tim Walz has handled it well. Jim questions whether Minnesota Democrats will abandon Walz in 2026 or continue standing by him despite the growing scandal.Please visit our great sponsors:Try Quo for free at https://Quo.com/3ML and keep your existing number—Quo means no missed calls, no missed customers.Give your liver the support it deserves with Dose Daily.

This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode, we sit down with the newly crowned 2025 E-Foil Surf Foil World Tour (SFT) World Champion – the undefeated e-foil racer who took the title in the season finale in Abu Dhabi.Fresh off dominating the inaugural SFT season, the Florida-based ripper (and Flightboard early adopter) joins us to break down what it actually feels like to turn a five-year hunch into a world championship, how e-foil racing went from “nice idea” to a full-blown global tour in record time, and why this sport is exploding faster than anyone predicted.We go deep on:- From kite-smash accidents to building one of the first e-foil schools in South Florida - The wild Atlanta Foil Fest Enduro with Brian Grubb, Nick Leeson, and 20 riders dodging submerged trees at full throttle - Unsanctioned full-send dawn patrols through Amsterdam's canals (don't try this at home) - Gear geek-out: custom shims, chopped tails, 900 Flow vs 707 Flux wings, aftermarket race props, and why everything is still basically stock… for now - Why full-face helmets and downhill MTB armor are becoming mandatory at 33–35 mph - Mental warfare on the beach, prop-wash tactics, hot launches, and pulling 3+G turns - Traveling the world with boards but no batteries (and how the Flightboard rental network saves the day) - The massive progression from the first dealer races in 2022 to riders now training full-time and closing the gap second by second - Where e-foil racing is headed: open-ocean courses, city canal sprints, Everglades gator-chasing, and boards that will eventually hit 50 mph Year one of the Surf Foil World Tour is in the books, prize money is real, brands are paying attention, and the level is skyrocketing. The champ gives us the unfiltered look at what it took to stay on top — and why 2026 is about to get even crazier.If you've ever wondered what the cutting edge of foiling actually looks, sounds, and feels like… this is it.Follow the Surf Foil Tour → https://www.surffoilworldtour.com Justin Chait → https://www.instagram.com/_justinchait_/
This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode, we catch up with Tom Hartmann – tour manager of the GKA Kite World Tour, Wingfoil World Tour, and founder of the brand-new Surf Foil World Tour (SFT) – fresh from the biggest water sports spectacle the Middle East has ever seen in Abu Dhabi and now chasing the final Kite World Tour stops in Brazil.Tom takes us behind the scenes of the massive nine-day Abu Dhabi event on the soon-to-be “Miami Beach of the Gulf” (Fahid Island), where kite big air, wingfoil racing, e-foil, and wakefoil all shared the spotlight, 2,500+ spectators showed up on weekends, and the whole thing was broadcast live on TV across the region. With €10,000 prize money per SFT discipline, perfect glassy morning conditions, and a level of organization that left athletes speechless, this was the perfect season finale for the inaugural Surf Foil World Tour.- Abu Dhabi deep dive – why foiling (e-foil, wakefoil, wing, kite, surf, pump) is exploding in the Gulf and how the event showcased every flavor of the sport.- E-foil racing at the highest level yet – Justin Chait remains undefeated in 2025, Agnes takes the women's division, and we talk 3G corners, wingtip-out carving, and why technical skill still beats raw speed.- Wakefoil's breakout moment – first fully independent SFT wakefoil comp, drone + boat broadcasting magic, and why wakefoiling could be the most spectator-friendly foiling discipline out there.- The massive growth nobody saw coming – from a hopeful start to nine events worldwide in year one, with a 2026 calendar dropping in the next couple weeks.- What's next for SFT in 2026 – more surf foil, downwind, wakefoil, the return of the epic indoor Düsseldorf pump & wing event, and a brand-new Foil Assist discipline that mixes propulsion take-offs with pure pumping sections.- Plus Tom's love for açaí bowls at Brazilian sunset and maybe sneaking in some surf trips to Nicaragua or Costa Rica before heading home.Year one of the Surf Foil World Tour is officially in the books and it's safe to say foiling just went global – big budgets, big crowds, and bigger stoke. Here's to 2026 being even wilder.Follow the Surf Foil Tour → https://www.surffoiltour.com

This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode, we sit down with Sascha Lange, the 41-year-old German windsurf coach, personal trainer, and author of the brand-new wind bible called "Never Not Windsurfing – Defeat Age & Keep the Stoke Alive". Fresh off a one-year writing marathon (and still hand-packing and shipping every single copy himself), Sascha joins us to talk about why he poured his soul into the ultimate fitness and longevity guide for windsurfers over 40 – and why even the youngest PWA pros are already using it.From his beginnings as a passionate windsurfer in 1997 to becoming one of the most sought-after coaches in the sport, Sascha explains how analyzing YouTube clips of his clients at midnight led to hyper-specific training programs that fix exactly what's holding riders back on the water. With contributions from over 50 of the biggest names in windsurfing – Björn Dunkerbeck, Sarah-Quita Offringa, Marcilio Browne, Ricardo Campello, Victor Fernandez, Gollito Estredo, and an epic foreword from Captain Paul Watson, plus extra-long contribution from the godfather himself, Balz Müller – this isn't just another fitness book.Why “Never Not Windsurfing”? Turning 40 sparked the idea: Sascha is fitter now than ever and wanted to prove age is just a number if you train smart.Book Structure & Philosophy: From decade-specific body changes to mobility, functional strength, balance & coordination, breathing techniques, biohacking (sleep, sunlight, cold plunging), and a full chapter on designing your own success plan – pick what you need, when you need it.Who It's For: Primarily the 40+ crew (weekend warriors, parents, people with real jobs and no trade winds), but young pros are already stealing the advanced stability, endurance, and mental-game tools. Works for wing foiling too.Real-Life Impact: How 10–15 minute targeted sessions beat three-hour gym marathons, why your core is the “transmission” between sail and board, and how small consistent wins stop you starting every season from scratch.Cold Plunging, Breathing & Biohacking: Sascha's daily reset rituals, why nasal breathing through an ice bath is the new meditation, and how to use cold exposure without freaking out.The Captain Paul Watson Foundation: €1 from every book goes straight to ocean protection – plus Paul Watson himself wrote the foreword because the oceans are our playground and the animals' living room.Behind-the-Scenes Madness: Self-publishing both English and German editions, hand-writing dedications, midnight post-office runs, and why the book is stitched (not just glued) so it literally lasts forever.What's Next: Online “Fit for Surfing” programs, windsurf retreats (Vancouver Island anyone?), and maybe… a wing-foiling version one day.Whether you're chasing your first solid gybe, still ripping at 60, or a pro looking for that extra edge, *Never Not Windsurfing* is built to keep you on the water longer, stronger, and stoked for life.

This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode, we sit down with Björn Dunkerbeck, the 56-year-old windsurfing legend with 42 PWA World Titles (more than any athlete in any sport), 32+ years with Red Bull, and a personal best of 103.68 km/h over 500 m. Fresh off double-hip surgery and pain-free for the first time in years, Björn joins Luc from Lüderitz, Namibia, where he's chasing the outright windsurf speed world record during the month-long November window at the infamous Lüderitz Speed Channel. From the early days of 16-knot records in Weymouth to breaking 50 knots in a hand-dug Namibian trench, Björn walks us through the 50-year evolution of speed sailing, the physics of wind angle, water flatness, and why 8–10 m wide is now “as good as it gets” for a channel you can't fall out of at 100 km/h.Channel Evolution & Record Progression: How speed sailing jumped from 30 knots in the South of France to 40 in Saint-Marie-la-Mer, 45 by Thierry Bielak, then exploded in Walvis Bay and finally Lüderitz—where a kitesurfer named Sebastien Cattelan dug the first trench, and six riders broke 50 knots in one week (2012–13).Lüderitz 2025 Setup: Björn's first sessions in “perfect south-easter” conditions, why 45–50 knots of wind is the sweet spot before chop kills speed, and how a scratched fin or lack of starting-area depth can end your run before it begins.Post-Surgery Comeback: At 115 kg and 56 years young, how titanium hips have restored confidence, why Severne sails (5.2–5.7 m²), 40 cm Starboard speed boards, and custom fins are dialed, and the mental edge of knowing “I can still do this.”Gear & Technique for 100 km/h: Why boards are only 227 cm long / 35–45 L, how you rail the upwind third of the channel, and the art of body-position micro-adjustments to keep a 40 cm board from catapulting in full-power 5.2 conditions.Wipeouts & Safety: “Your day is over after a big one.” Helmet + impact vest = minimum; grit + not crashing = the real safety plan.Getting Into Speed Sailing: Download the WaterSpeed app (free), track your 100 m / 250 m / 500 m times anywhere, then upload to GPS-SpeedSurfing.com and join the Dunkerbeck Speed Challenge (50+ countries, 10th year running). Start on whatever gear you have—25 knots becomes 30, then 40…Family Legacy: Four kids, two girls, two boys. Son Liam (17)—triple U21 wave world champ, former U18 Lüderitz record holder (80+ km/h)—currently training on Maui. Youngest Daniel (13 next week) already ripping waves and speed. How Björn transitioned from pro dominance to proud dad without losing the fire.Bonaire & Dunkerbeck Pro Center: 10 years strong at Sorobon's turquoise lagoon—Defi Wind Bonaire returns June 16–21, 2026 (111 spots only). From 5-year-olds in harnesses to 90-year-olds still planing, it's the world's safest speed playground.Foiling vs Fin: Björn's light-wind foil arsenal (6.0–10.0 m² + Phantom 960/1950/910 wings) as low-wind speed training, why foils won't touch Lüderitz (not enough depth, too much drag), and whether sub-40 cm masts could ever push foils past 100 km/h.The Limit? Björn's take: 100 km/h average on 500 m is very possible; top speed >103.68 km/h likely. Beyond 105 km/h, cavitation theories split the experts—we'll know when we get there.Red Bull Family: 32 years, 800+ athletes, from windsurfing's early days to F1 and America's Cup. Plus Björn's long involvement with Wings for Life spinal cord research.Follow Björn - https://www.instagram.com/bjorndunkerbeckDunkerbeck Speed Challenge - https://www.GPS-SpeedSurfing.comWaterSpeed App - Free downloadLüderitz Speed Channel live updates all November!
Send us a textWhat do you say to God when life breaks your heart? We turn to Job's first chapter and sit with a hard, hopeful truth: true faith can be shattered and still not rebel. Together we explore why Scripture records that Job did not charge God foolishly, how sovereignty sets real limits on evil, and why the Spirit's witness in us makes cursing God unthinkable even when questions pile up.We move from the claim that a true believer cannot curse God to the honest language of Mark 9:24—Lord, I believe; help my unbelief. That tension shapes Christian endurance. You'll hear how lament differs from apostasy, how sanctification trains us through affliction instead of sparing us from it, and why God's providence is a place to rest, not a puzzle to resent. Along the way, we connect Lamentations 3, the Psalms of seeking and steadfastness, and Jesus' words to Peter about sifting and prayer, forming a biblical map for long nights and heavy days.Stories bring the theology close. A lawsuit that threatened a family's livelihood, a hymn born in catastrophic loss, and the small mercies that made a concentration barrack off-limits to guards—each witness sings the same refrain: wisdom and grace triumph over Satan's best. The hedge that matters most is around the life God preserves. We may be broken, but by the Spirit we are not rebels. Faith becomes the way through the fire, and worship rises from ashes with Job's words on our lips: blessed be the name of the Lord.If this conversation strengthened your hope, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs courage, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Send us a textWhat if the fiercest storms in your life were allowed, not to break you, but to reveal what anchors you? We return to Job 1 and walk scene by scene through the rapid-fire calamities that strip Job of wealth, defenders, and finally, his children. Along the way, we spotlight details the text refuses to hide: the Chaldeans arrive in three bands, servants are slain, camels are carried off, and a great wind strikes the house at all four corners. This is not chaos without cause; it is a portrait of coordinated assault under divine limits, where Satan acts but never rules.As a panel, we map strategy to spirituality. If raiding parties showed reconnaissance and planning, believers need vigilance that is grounded, not fearful. We talk about Job's likely prominence, why organized forces targeted him, and how the loss of servants was also the loss of protective power. Then we face the heaviest blow—the death of Job's children—and wrestle honestly with the question people still ask: why would God permit this? The answer is not tidy, but it is solid: sovereignty sets boundaries, suffering refines integrity, and growth often arrives through testing. We connect this to “Christian bearing,” a disciplined composure under fire that reflects who we represent and how we trust.This episode blends close reading with lived experience. You'll hear practical counsel for spiritual vigilance, stories that mirror Job's pressures in modern workplaces and homes, and a refusal to call coincidence what Scripture calls design. If you're navigating loss, confusion, or relentless headwinds, this conversation offers steadiness without clichés, courage without bravado, and hope without denial. Listen, share it with someone in the storm, and tell us: where have you seen purpose take shape inside your trials?

Send us a textWhat if the worst day of your life was not random, but permitted with purpose? We step into Job's story as a cosmic courtroom, where God sets boundaries and Satan wagers that faith will collapse once comfort is gone. From the opening claim—nothing belongs to us, not even our lives—we track a rapid succession of blows that feel otherworldly: raiders, fire, wind, and a final strike at Job's heart. Along the way, one survivor escapes each calamity, a detail the panel reads as both witness and weight, driving the test forward without pause.We wrestle with a provocative question: was Satan being set up? Pride blinds him; he assumes devotion is transactional. That blindness mirrors modern unbelief, where creation sings yet hearts stay shut. We map biblical echoes—the firstborn in Egypt, Abraham and Isaac, and the eldest brother's house—without forcing symbolism. We also examine the Chaldeans through Habakkuk's lens, noting how ruthless instruments in one moment face judgment in another. The throughline is sovereignty: God permits, limits, and ultimately redeems, revealing a faith that blesses God beyond blessing.The conversation turns practical and piercing. Why were Job's children feasting while disaster spread? Distance and supernatural speed likely kept them unaware, underscoring the intensity of the trial. More crucially, the panel confronts entitlement: if we are creatures, our lives are gifts, not rights. That reframes grief without trivializing it. Like Joseph's confession—what was meant for evil, God meant for good—Job's confession anchors hope in a God who writes straight with jagged lines. The Lord gives; the Lord takes away; blessed be the name of the Lord. Join us, rethink suffering, and consider what anchors your worship when every prop falls.If this challenged or encouraged you, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway.

Send us a textWhat if the God you talk about isn't the God you meet when everything breaks? We dive straight into the furnace with Job 1:20–21 and ask what worship looks like when the bottom drops out. Not the mascot of modern spirituality, but the sovereign Lord who gives and takes away—and remains worthy.We talk plainly about sovereignty, election, and the uncomfortable gap between our sense of fairness and God's freedom. That isn't a cold doctrine lesson; it's a way of seeing that frees us to speak truth with love. If God is truly God, we don't shrink him to fit our expectations or hold him to our standards. We introduce people to him whether they feel ready or not, because real hope doesn't begin in our preferences—it begins in his character. That's why Job's movements matter: he tears his robe, shaves his head, falls to the ground, and worships. Grief isn't faked away; lament and reverence share the same breath.We also expose Satan's miscalculation. The wager assumed Job loved gifts more than the Giver. But Job blesses the name of the Lord, proving that authentic faith can't be bought off by comfort or crushed by loss. We explore why the order of his confession—“The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away”—re-centers the heart on grace before deprivation. Along the way we touch remnant faith, how truth gets passed through families and seasons, and why humility grows as our view of God grows. The goal isn't bravado; it's a quiet courage that can say blessed be the name of the Lord even when hands are empty.If you're craving a deeper, sturdier faith—and a picture of God that can hold your real life—this conversation will meet you there.

This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. Note: Tech Glitch -- My Audio is not the cleanest, Sorry! Guests came out great. (Luckily I don't talk a lot!) In this episode, we catch up with Josh Ku and Dane Wilson, accomplished foilers, surfers, and creatives pushing the boundaries of ocean adventures. Joining Luc from their respective locations amid busy travel schedules, Josh and Dane recount their daring foil crossing from Uluwatu in Bali to the iconic G-Land in Java, the raw survival moments that unfolded, and the making of their film "The Strait Path." From near-disasters at sea to epic surf sessions on a vintage Jerry Lopez board, they dive into the spirit of exploration, the Waterman ethos, and the thrill of turning an uncharted journey into a captivating story.Episode Highlights:- Origins of the Idea: Josh and Dane discuss how the project sparked from shared creative vibes, Josh's inspiration from Dane's prior adventure film with Zane, and the goal to blend foiling with classic surfing in Indonesia's wild waters—pitching a high-stakes crossing that aligned perfectly with swell and wind forecasts.- Planning and Launch: The duo reflects on committing to the trip just a week out, Josh's background in downwinding and island traversals, and Dane's hands-off approach to filming, relying on a support boat for safety and shots in an unpredictable ocean playground.- The Crossing Drama: A deep dive into the 92km foil journey turning chaotic—getting off course, the boat snagging debris and vanishing, Josh navigating solo by wind, watch, and stars while battling dehydration, currents, and wildlife, and Dane's tense hour-plus search feeling utterly isolated without comms.- Survival and Reunion: Josh shares the mental shift to survival mode, ignoring ground swell to follow wind direction, spotting whales and debris, and the massive relief of reuniting; Dane recounts the crew's frantic scans, aligning rescue plans, and capturing the emotional finale with jungle backdrops.- Surfing Legacy at G-Land: Wrapping the adventure with perfect waves, Josh riding a single-fin Jerry Lopez Lightning Bolt board for a bucket-list tube session, paying homage to surf pioneers like Lopez and McCabe, and how it tied into the film's theme of exploration beyond crowded breaks.- Filmmaking Challenges: Dane opens up on the pressure to capture the trip's raw magic in editing—focusing on audio, story flow, and visuals without over-stylizing—while emphasizing the foil as a tool for adventure, not the sole focus, in a nod to historical ocean tales.- Reflections and Growth: Insights on embracing uncertainty, learning from mishaps like inadequate safety plans, the addictive "have a go" spirit of true adventure, and how the experience reinforced their Waterman perspectives without modern tech crutches.- Premieres and Next Horizons: Details on upcoming screenings in Sydney (November 7, 2025, at Collaroy Cinema) and potential LA showings, plus teases for future collaborations blending Josh's athletic pushes and Dane's filmmaking prowess.Follow Josh - https://www.instagram.com/joshku/Follow Dane - https://www.instagram.com/dane___wilson/

Welcome back Adrian Roper of AXIS Foils - the man who still holds the mantle for the most listened to podcast we've ever done - from 2 years ago!We were already keen to chat to Adrian about the mountain of new innovations that seem to be hitting the market soon from AXIS - but before we had a chance to ask, he cornered us in the carpark of the Hatch to ask us exactly the same.It was hard to miss the hype around the brand at the AWSI show this year - there was a hive of activity around the stand the whole time we were there, and its also been very apparent from the downwind race season this year that AXIS had some pretty impressive kit on the way.So, we let Adrian bring over all these new bits to show us through. Hopefully at some point we'll put some video up from it, because as you'll hear - he's man handling kit the entire episode. Frank even joins us at the end to discuss their relationship for a few minutes as well.Podcast aside - we've been busy squirelling away on a couple bits.

Published 2 November 2025This week we discuss the iconic Australian sailing class The Sharpie. The Sharpie is a fantastic class that is very popular. The combination of a three person crew, close racing, fun regattas and affordability make it very appealing. And with their Nationals in Port Lincoln and each of us having sailed them, we couldn't resist. It was a lot of fun.

This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode, we catch up with Jake Kelsick, a seasoned kitesurfer, wing foiler, and content creator from the beautiful island of Antigua. Joining Luc from his island paradise, Jake shares his lifelong passion for water sports, his journey from early kiting days to running a successful school, and the evolution of foiling in a tropical haven. From epic adventures in Bora Bora to dissecting ideal setups for beginners and pros, Jake offers an authentic glimpse into island life, the thrill of progression, and the joy of sharing the stoke with newcomers.- Island Roots and Early Days: Jake reflects on growing up in Antigua, getting hooked on kitesurfing since 2003, and how the island's warm waters, reefs, and consistent winds made it a dream spot. He discusses the shift from kiting to wing foiling, the local culture's relaxed vibe, and standout locations like Half Moon Bay for rolling waves.- Building a Water Sports School: Jake dives into starting Kelsick Kiteboarding (now expanding to water sports) in 2020 amid COVID, transitioning from pro freeriding to teaching 50/50 kiting and winging. He shares insights on demographics (mostly 30-50+ adventurers), the forgiving conditions for learning, and why Antigua strikes a balance between beginner-friendly and progression-focused—plus tips on affordability compared to spots like Bonaire.- Adventures and Pro Journey: From a wild birthday invite to Bora Bora's aquarium-like lagoons (saved by kite foiling in light winds) to competing in Russia and demo tours, Jake recounts standout trips that expanded his horizons. He talks about the realities of pro life—cool perks but tricky monetization—and how content creation bridged the gap, evolving from DVDs to YouTube gems like "Cruise Mode."- Gear Evolution and Teaching Tips: Jake breaks down his North gear loyalty, from beginner setups to high-performance foils (like the SF series), and how tech advancements made winging accessible. He emphasizes board sizing, foil progression behind boats, and why winging lowers barriers vs. kiting—allowing safer self-practice and quicker stoke moments, even for cold-water riders.- Community and Future Vibes: The conversation explores winging's explosive growth, its potential to rival windsurfing by attracting foil newcomers, and the addictive "rep game" of foiling. Jake highlights family life (with his wife and young daughter joining the fun), the transformative power of sessions for mental reset, and Antigua's long season (November-July) as a home base for camps and content.- Looking Ahead: Jake teases more island explorations like the Cook Islands, gear tweaks for evolving sports, and growing his school—while keeping the focus on fun, safe progression for all ages.Follow Jake - https://www.instagram.com/jakekelsick/

This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode, we catch up with Kiran Verma, a passionate pro wing foiler and content creator from Australia's Sunshine Coast. Joining Luc from across the globe, Kiran shares his inspiring journey into the sport at age 37, his recent switch to North gear, and the highs of pushing limits in a rapidly evolving industry. From mastering foil slides to dissecting his favorite setups, Kiran offers an honest look at what it takes to progress, the joy of community connections, and the transformative power of foiling at any age.Journey into Foiling: Kiran reflects on starting wing foiling later in life, now at 41, and how it changed everything—from traveling to places like Cape Verde, Fiji, Mauritius, Brazil, and Chile, to embracing rejection and training harder. He emphasizes the mental freedom of pursuing passion without caring about judgments, and how foiling has brought happiness despite life's demands.Switching to North Gear: Kiran details his transition to North after positive experiences with their foils, highlighting the SF-530 for tight turns and the SF-680 for versatile light-wind performance. He praises the brand's receptiveness, community support (like backing Max Robinson and We Can Foil), and gear like the 55L Swell board, while sharing how video analysis helped refine his riding.Gear Breakdown and Tips: Diving into his go-to setup—a 680 front wing, 145 stabilizer, 60cm fuse, and 85cm mast—Kiran explains why he sticks to minimal changes for consistency. He discusses foil slides inspired by riders like Cash Berzolla, the appeal of short boards for prone foiling, and why foiling appeals to the 40-70 age group with its technical, accessible nature.Community and Growth: The duo explores the sport's potential to go mainstream, comparing it to golf for its niche appeal and inclusivity. Kiran stresses the need for more entry-level programs to grow foiling beyond the elite, the role of small brands in innovation, and how sessions clear the mind like nothing else.Future Plans: Kiran teases upcoming trips, possibly to Morocco for right-handers or Cape Town for King of the Air, plus content on learning new tricks like one-hand grabs. He hints at deeper involvement with North's R&D and a desire to see foiling explode in popularity.Follow Kiran - https://www.instagram.com/kv_foil/
This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire.

The F-One Frigate takes the top spot, while the Gong Lowkite Plus impresses as a budget-friendly standout. Matt explains why some wings, like the FlySurfer Pow, shine in specific conditions but require skill to master.Testing Challenges: Matt shares the behind-the-scenes effort of measuring and testing parawings, from weighing canopies at a local shop to battling inconsistent wind at Lake Silvaplana. He discusses the difficulty of giving honest feedback, especially when brands provide free gear or personal support, and the importance of staying authentic for the community.Gear Evolution: From depowering innovations to material durability concerns, Matt and Luc explore how parawings are evolving. Matt questions whether ultra-light canopies are worth the trade-offs and highlights unique designs like the 777 PT Skin's integrated harness system.Safety and Accessibility: The duo discusses the physical demands of parawinging, cautioning beginners about the learning curve and potential risks, especially for those with prior injuries. They look ahead to future innovations that could make pair wings more accessible and user-friendly.Follow Matt - https://www.instagram.com/mattonfoil/
