This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire.
Hugo Marin joins us from his home in France to talk about:
- His upcoming trip to Chicama, Peru
- His favourite wing foiling spots include Tahiti, Mauritius, and Cape Verde.
- Travelling to different foiling spots can be affordable, especially if you are open to camping or finding budget accommodations.
- Giving back to local communities when visiting foiling spots, especially in areas where the sport may not be accessible to everyone.
- Even though competition is a part of the sport, focusing on the lifestyle, content creation, and supporting sponsors can be equally rewarding.
- He aspires to become a commercial pilot in the future, so he uses that knowledge to provide feedback and help with research and development in wing foiling. This can be challenging, especially when considering the different preferences and styles of riders.
- His recent trip to Defi Wind
- And much more.
