May 12 2024 70 mins  
This week we welcome Lord and Lady Bridge of Exmouth to our little show. Famous across the county and further afield in the wing/kite industry and incredibly well regarded - nobody forgets meeting Steph and Eric Bridge. From starting a small sailing school back in the 80's in their home town of Exmouth, to now running one of the most successful kite/wing schools and shops in

68 - The Salmon

May 02 2024 77 mins  
Freddie's away so Liam has a chat with local boy Jack Salmon. A name that is already likely to be known by UK folk, Jack has the potential to take things further in the watersports industry once he has got his degree out of the way. Not only is he a talented waterman that excels in every discipline he takes his hand to, but he's an energetic creative that also enjoys his ti

67 - Child's Play / Like taking candy from a baby

Apr 22 2024 59 mins  
Some more childish banter in response to some comments made online recently that we thought needed addressing....... There is some foil chat here though, don't fret. Ken Adgate jumps in with a voice note to give us some answers to questions we've had from listeners about how to engage in flat water wing shenanigans. We dissect how these potential 'party tricks' may

66 - Wieger Buurma No.2 - Appletree's New Appleslice V3

Apr 16 2024 122 mins  
We welcome Wieger back finally, after chatting to him way back at the start of 2023. His best selling Appleslice model is being renewed for the 3rd Version and so it seemed like a great excuse to rope him back in. I'm sure we did discuss the new board at least a little bit but as always its the ramblings in other directions that made this chat so much fun once again. Great guy

65 - Old Olympians that foil

Apr 01 2024 128 mins  
Ben Rhodes and Stevie Morrison join us this week for a couple beers in Liams flat. They partnered together in the 49'er sailing fleet way back when, winning multiple world championships and representing Great Britain in the 2008 and 2012 Olympics. Exmouth locals, they're both now into their coaching of both Olympic kite foil racing and sailing while being well into their o

64 - Pure Journalism

Mar 25 2024 50 mins  
Multiple sessions this week just gone, we've had some great powered conditions to play in! Jezza's traffic light power zones has worked its wonders on Freddie's wiggles on the wave.... Liams had his mind on some board building ideas and we hear from Ken Adgate briefly for some thoughts to discuss. More Room 101 points from our own dear listeners! Give us a shout on

63 - The three amigos ft. Jeremy Wilmotte

Mar 17 2024 127 mins  
It'd been too long, we've been overdue a good chat with our man over in Aus. Today Jeremy joins us as a co-host of sorts and we catch up on the coming and goings. I'm writing this on Sunday evening and Liam and I just finished a 20 mile running race today, its safe to say my brain isn't quite computing anything yet (neither of us would classify ourselves as runners

62 - Kane De Wilde

Mar 10 2024 88 mins  
Kane shouldn't need an introduction - he's been around long enough in the foiling space, producing hugely popular after market rear wings to suit every brand's kit. But now he's working solidly at KT as a designer we were keen to hear plans! Liam and Kane waffle on almost straight away into techy foil designs..... and as always, Freddie brings it back in line for t

61 - Sunday Chinwags - Opinions are like Arseholes, everyones got one

Mar 03 2024 51 mins  
After Ken's episode blew up last week, we're back with a nice chilled Sunday evening chat. Plenty to discuss and catch up on - despite Liam and I spending all weekend together already. Our T-shirts are available to buy!! Message on the socials for now for more info.... GWA Ponta Preta - Surf/Surf Freestyle?? Guy Bridge's Downwind Video on youtube - search for it! Li

60 - Ken Adgate - King of the Tacks

Feb 25 2024 121 mins  
We get into it with Ken Adgate, a man with fingers in many pies. Shredder, board builder, un/official test rider for Ozone and Mikeslab and gas guzzling car dealership owner in the US of A. We've been fans from a far of Kens for a long while, and if you've not seen footage of him riding yet you will be soon enough too. We hit the big time though after Ken listened to a few
