[blueplanetsurf]

Thanks for the comments.  Here is the latest Blue Planet Show interview with Olivia Piana who excels in so many watersports disciplines:

This Blue Planet Show is a recap of the Voyager X Wet Feet downwind race here on Oahu. It was probably the biggest downwind foil race we've had here on Oahu, maybe anywhere. I'm talking with Brian Tricario and Derek Hamasaki who finished first and second in the wing foil division.

Really enjoying this one. The guy that comes in on the Duotone at the finish you guys didn't recognize is none other than bigmtnbill.

All right, glad you enjoyed it, thanks for identifying him!

Here is a recap of the Day 1 race: Maui to Molokai.  Wing Foiling was the biggest division:

I've been trying for a long time to get the Spencer brothers to come on the show and I finally met up with them after the Molokai To Oahu race and I got them both on the show today. Finn recently won the Maui to Molokai race and the Molokai to Oahu race, even though he had a major infection on his foot.  And both Finn Spencer and Jeffrey Spencer are amazing athletes, not just in wing foiling, but also downwind foiling, prone foiling, surfing.

Another great show Robert! Humble rippers. Now I need to go try a backflip.

Jimmy Lewis gave us a full tour of his board building workshop in Maui and talks about his steps in building a board, including hot wire cutting the blank, installing foil boxes, glassing, how to get a sharp edge on a carbon layup and much more, thanks for sharing Jimmy!
This interview is also available as a podcast.

Thanks Robert,
The Jimmy Lewis chat was awesome. 
Love your signed World Wide shirt, wear it with pride.
I have the Rush Randle air chair aluminum hydrofoil which I use for kitesurfing, he welded a mini tuttle top to fit onto his board.  Thst seaplane V in the front of jimmy's board wth hard rails looks sick.

Thanks Robert, excellent content.  What a great summary of what he's done over the years.
 
Dave's story beginning at 1:23:30 is excellent.  It's great hearing that from him.

Great punch line - "I have to wait to see what the numbers say, to determine whether I had fun or not!"
