017_Dave West: Has His Views On Parawinging Changed?

In this episode featuring Dave West, we dive deep into the advantages of parawinging compared to SUP downwinding. Dave is a professional, multidisciplinary foiler who recently released a series of three videos documenting his experiences learning how to parawing, which sparked considerable controversy online. His polarizing views have generated engaging discussions that we explore in this lively debate. In addition to our banter, we discuss skateboarding drills to improve your parawing handling skills, Dave’s pro model, The Cypher, which is an excellent choice for parawinging, and the current state of the major downwinding racing scene in Hawaii. It was a pleasure hosting this amusing, charismatic, and talented rider.
