Sometimes the best adventures begin closer to home than you might think. Guy Bridge sets out on an ambitious downwind mission from his own doorstep, proving that with the right conditions, a bit of planning and plenty of determination, unforgettable journeys don’t always require a plane ticket.

Issue 28

Perhaps our biggest test section ever, and one of the reasons this issue took a little longer to get over the line. We put the latest wings from Armstrong, Cabrinha, Ozone and Starboard through their paces, alongside two of the hottest new parawings on the market: the Ozone Pocket Rocket V2 and Power Pack. Jack Galloway also gets his downwind fix aboard the new Starboard MF foil, while we round things off with a look at Armstrong’s latest Performance masts.

Foiling is evolving faster than almost any other watersport on the planet. New disciplines appear almost yearly, gear continues to improve and riders are discovering entirely new ways to use wind and swell. But while the technology is moving quickly, the biggest shift in the sport may actually be who is getting involved. Former professional kiteboarder Sensi Graves has found herself at the centre of that change, not just as a passionate foiler, but as someone helping open the door for more women and newcomers through coaching, community events and her own journey balancing life on the water with motherhood.

Jack Galloway is pumped on parawings this issue. Jack's a fantastic downwind foiler, whether that’s with a paddle, chipping in on a prone board or dock starting out to the bumps. The parawing is the latest tool in his box that’s allowing him even more time on the water, and helping with logistics, while also acting as a safety backup too! This is well worth a read if you are para-inclined, para-curious or para-sold…

When Armstrong Foils hosted its first Women’s Week in Tarifa, Olivia Sánchez joined a group of inspiring riders for a week of wind, waves, and connection. Between powerful Levante sessions and late-night laughter, she found more than just progression on the water; she found confidence, friendship, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Foiling might look like effortless flight from the outside, but every glide hides a story of crashes, wipeouts, and stubborn persistence! In this editorial, Jack Galloway talks about the mindset that sets foilers apart: the willingness to sacrifice comfort, start from scratch again and again, and embrace the “walk of shame” in pursuit of progress.
