I met Roman as host of the Freefoil Summit in Austria. It is incredible, how much voluntary and unpaid work he puts in his passion. In the episode, we talked about how and why a Pumpfoil club is needed and how they managed to finance a 30k dockstart boat. We also relived the Freefoil Summit that took place a couple of weeks ago.
