    Mike moved to Bonaire to wing foil

    This episode was a coincidence. Mike added me falsely on Facebook but we started to chat anyway. I thought that his story was interesting. Interesting enough to share it with you! What resulted was a 3 parter about Bonaire. So this is the first episode about Bonaire. Mike Ross' Story on how the came to the Island as a tourist and decided to stay there half of the year.

    How biased are foiling reviews? - A chat with Nico Hopp (Hoppline) and Gav Blake (hydro_gav)

    Can we trust this review or is it just an ad? This is a difficult question to answer in the age of Influencers that try to make a living out of it. In this episode, I invited @hydro_gav and @hoppline to chat about being biased or unbiased in videos and reviews. It is difficult to be 100% unbiased but still honest. Our advantage: we are a bit older and are not surviving off Youtube and Instagram. Still - we love support from riders who enjoy our content.
