Josh’s Barcelona Vlog – On the Ground with the Crew
Team rider Josh Ku takes you behind the lens in this vlog capturing the full race day and all the small details.
“It was an amazing event put together by Xavi from Wind Paradise. A 18km race with 2 fun days of foil demos on the side. We scored fun waves to surf and multiple downwind runs each day. It was awesome to meet all the local foilers and foilers from Europe who travelled to come to compete.”
