In this episode, I sit down with James Casey to explore the exciting world of downwinding and parawinging. James shares his journey from different water sports into foiling, we dive into the emergence of the parawing, its advantages for downwinders, and the unique dynamics of light wind sessions. We also cover important safety considerations and talk about the future of downwinding with parawings, making this a valuable conversation for anyone passionate about water sports. James discusses innovative techniques, self-sufficiency on downwind runs, and how foil selection impacts performance. He shares insights from recent races and reflects on where power winging is headed as a community-driven sport. Throughout our conversation, we compare learning how to downwind on the parawing verses other disciples such as winging, SUP and foil drive. What comes out of this might surprise you! Thanks for coming on James. It was great to finally get this podcast done and I look forward to continue to follow your evolution in this sport! #Parawing #Foiling #Podcast
