TOM INTERVIEW

Can you tell us a bit more about your passion for foiling? Being on the open sea above the water is a unique sensation that requires a lot of hard work but it is the purest form of gliding that I have ever felt.

You just won the lottery, what would you do first? A catamaran cruise with the people I love on board and my MANERA and F-ONE gear of course!

Next destination? The Canary Islands to train for downwind foil.

What’s the most amazing thing you’ve experienced? Meeting 15/20m whales during a surf session sitting on my board, it’s breathtaking!

What are you doing during a day without waves, wind? I continue my aeronautical training, so I still fly, but in the air.
