Downwind Foiling is now a sport that hundreds of...

I asked Lukas to come on the podcast as he has a bit of a different story compared to others I have had on. He is from Germany and learnt to foil in a river using a bungee.

It was a pleasure to dive into his foiling journey and he even flipped the questions onto me at the end. Lukas is also a Coach Casey Club member and heading to the French Downwind Race in October which will be...
