Doni and Julian are two of the most talented downwind foilers here in Perth. Julian was one of the first people in WA to start downwind foiling, and has tried his way through a wide range of equipment. Since then, he has helped pull Doni into this crazy adventure of foiling with him.
They are both pushing the limits whether it be trying out crazy small foils, using footstraps, planning and completing some epic foil missions or just seeing how much time they can wrangle out of their busy schedules to go foiling as much as possible. (Julian is an engineer and Doni a landscape architect.)
I want to finish this description with a quote that Doni said at the end of the podcast. (Maybe one of my favourite quotes because it resonated with me)
“I often thought of [downwinding] as something that I would never do, and now I can’t see myself living without it” - Doni
Downwind foiling has such a hard barrier for entry, but the battle to get there is definitely worth the reward.
Until next time... Stay Pumped!

Sven has got to be one of the most stoked foilers in WA, he won't miss an opportunity to go out for a foil session and there is never a session where he is not smiling. He has always gone out of his way to find the right kit, pushing brands such as Axis to create products for the bigger riders. It was awesome to talk to Sven about everything that he has done foiling as well as discussing new equipment that he is using.

Andrew Readhead, AKA Reeei-deee, works full-time as a critical care paramedic and is a loving father of two. But during every spare moment, he can squeeze into his busy life, he is either shaping foiling boards, wake-thieving boats from the Swan River, dropping cars for Downwind foil runs or out in the water carving some crazy lines. Reedy learnt to foil through downwind foiling, and if you know a bit about foiling, that’s a remarkable feat. Reedy, gives a whole heap of valuable insight into how you can also learn how to downwind foil during this episode.
Recently, Reedy completed a 105km solo downwind, won the Fenn Westcoast Downwind Foil race and built his newest crazy board, a 5’6” by 17 downwind machine. Super stoked to have this chat with Reedy, and thanks to @jamescasey7393 for joining the conversation and giving amazing insight as always.

Welcome back to The Foil Project and we are stoked to deliver you one of our biggest podcasts yet. Feel free to drop us any comments/questions it would be great to hear from you!In this episode of The Foil Project, we delve into all things Armstrong with founder and director of @armstrongfoils4948 , Armie Armstrong. In this episode we explore the history and origin of Armies humble beginnings, venturing into his design philosophy and testing process to produce innovative, high-quality wings and boards. Armie grew up around the water and wind, involved in numerous water sports from a young age including sailing, kite-boarding, kayaking and SUP surfing to name a few. His knack for water sports was clear from a young age and this inevitably lead to his interest in foiling, taking to the market years later to produce high quality wings that would transcend the foiling industry. His brand now caters for all riders in all conditions across the wide range of foiling sports, and shares strong links with the America’s Cup racing industry in New Zealand. We are so stoked Armie could come into the studio and loved having him on this episode of The Foil Project.Armie Drops a whole heap of important names along the way, so here is the list of all these legends if you’re interested in finding out more!
