  • 144 - Fred Hope and Slingshots Project Drag
    2026/06/15

    Fred joins us to discuss the Project Drag programme from Slingshot. It feels like this has been a long time coming now, but thats maybe as we've talked on and off about it a lot already. Liams got a setup and he's also been riding his home made board which is based off Kens shape as well.

    Nows the time to delve deeper into how its going for Slingshot though and why they chose to go this route. Fred discusses how setting up their discord forum has enabled him to talk directly to the consumer and figure out which direction to take things.

    We know we've not been around for a while - its been peaceful! We've a few episodes coming up though, so while we might not be weekly again just yet - theres more to look forward to!

  • 143 - Omen Foils - Greg Falck
    2026/04/28

    One of our most requested interviewee's for a while now, we finally managed to all organise a time to chat.

    We don't see much/any Omen here in the UK but we're very much aware of it's presence - and Greg has cemented himself as one of those foil brands thats worth listening to. His Youtube presence has been solid since the beginning and even Liam and I have learnt a lot by listening to him explain the likes of mast shims in easy and precise language on the internet - well worth a watch if you haven't already.

    Enjoy the chat - its a lengthy one, and Liam and Greg really dive into the tech!

    We're still blaming a slow start to the year for our lack of episodes.... but I understand its now nigh on May!! You'll be happy to hear the suns out here in the UK, the winds been stonking and Liam and I have both had some awesome sessions - which means chatting about said sessions can only be a short time away.

  • 142 - Dave Kalama
    2026/03/31

    When Gabriella Bella messages you to say that Dave Kalama wants to come on the podcast, you don't quite know what to believe. April fool's?! Cruel joke set up by the X Foils podcast? A messenger from someone Freddie's offended. What neither of us expected was that he was a semi regular listener and was keen for a chinwag. It is fair to say that we both thoroughly enjored the oppurtunity to share a conversation with this watersports legend and think we made the most of it!


    We hope you enjoy this one....if you don't, we'd may as well sack it all in!

  • 141 - Dane Wilson
    2026/03/24

    Videographer extraordinaire, Dane Wilson


    We met Dane for the first time last year when we were forced 'last minute' to MC his and Josh Ku's latest video escapades from Bali in Hood River. Turns out he's been involved with a fair few of our favourite foiling footage over the last few years - so we were keen to learn more.

    This is what its all about - enthusiasm and enjoyment. Thanks to Dane for taking the time - we look forward to catching up again in real time, now we're better acquainted!


    If you like what we're doing, check out https://buymeacoffee.com/gfpodcast to support. We're hoping to use the funds to buy beers in both America and Australia later this year.... God knows those Aussie beers are expensive.

  • 140 - A Session Debrief and the F-One Titan2
    2026/03/03

    We've been quiet - its been a slow start to the year for both of us. But here we are, back with a nice new episode for all to hear.


    Liams bought a house and is spending his days rubbing the walls down with sand paper, so he's been far too pre-occupied to talk foiling. Coupled with the constant rain and lack of motivation to get out, we haven't actually foiled until this sunday just gone - my first session since NZ!


    So, we dissect a session and some more new kit as always, and we also put some thoughts down on this fancy new Titan2 system F-One have been getting some grief for. They're opinions, but they're fun ones.


    Hope everyones been getting out and about more than us!

  • 139 - Edo Tanas Joins Slingshot
    2026/02/16

    The start of the year is always a fun one with regards shakes up in the industry. One such shake up was hearing that Edo was leaving F-one after a very successful couple years working with the brand. Where would he end up going?

    It might have come as a surprise to hear he was going to be working alongside the Slingshot guys - but I recon once you've listened to what the man himself has to say you'll understand the decision completely.

    A young man at the pinnacle of his discipline meets a young team with a tonne of potential at a brand with a strong heritage - we look forward to seeing where that can go!

  • 138 - Ken Adgate & Kyle Touhey - Who doesn't want to own a Ken Adgate board? It seems one of the big brands were asking the same question!
    2026/02/10

    FOILING NNEEEEWWWWWWSSSSZ! This is big!


    In this episode Liam sits down with Ken Adgate and Kyle Touhey...funnily enough, they talk about boards. The boys have wanted to have this catch up for a long time to review Liam's most recent DIY board project which they provided the shape for, but it got pushed quickly to the top of the to do list when we found out that one of the big dog foil brands were bringing the guy's most recent design concept to production.


    This is something I'm so stoked to see come to fruition and it is something that, now the wheels are in motion, I can't help being surprised it didn't happen sooner. Anyway, listen along to hear what they've been up to. We hope you enjoy the episode.
