The WangLordZ return. We've not sat down together for a while, its been busy!

Rich is buggering off to see his brother in NZ for a good few weeks so we made an effort to head down to Bantham for a session and a chinwag afterwards. Fuelled by Coffee and bacon we dissect the goings on of the last few weeks including Rich and Liams trips out to Portugal for the North Dealer Meeting last month, as well as Rich's trip to the Appletree factory.

Enjoy our own reviews of a few new products we've been playing on - Appletree boards, Armstrong wings and F-one foils. And Rich gives us his latest ramblings on the world of downwinding and pump foiling.

Also - Foiling Bicycles, yay or nay?

We finally managed to schedule in a sit down with Mr Armstrong after weeks of trying - the mans been all over the shop recently and finding a time zone was proving difficult! From New Zealand to China to the States to Maui, he has been all over in the last couple of months!

We ended up having a fantastic couple of hours discussing all things Foiling and Armstrong as well as his recent completion of the Maui to Molokai downwind race in preperation for the big Molokai to Oahu later this month.

We talk XPS wings, the HA origins, Armies links with the NZ sailing lot - tonnes of gems in this one and hopefully it comes across how much fun we had.

follow us on social media, we managed to use a different group chat function for this one so managed to get some video and some shorts out of it we'll aim to release soon enough too

With the all New Spitfire range from AXIS dropping worldwide, we managed to persuade Adrian Roper to join us on the podcast! Very happy about this one, Liam and I had a great time recording it and it was awesome to finally get to ask Adrian some questions we'd be considering for a long while.

For me (Freddie), Adrian was the first person I wanted as a guest when Liam and i started talking about doing some podcasting - a super interesting bloke with a great background in windsurfing, kitesurfing and now foiling.

We hope you enjoy this one, its become one of my own favourites. We discuss foiling in depth, along with a fair bit of engineery chat between Liam and Adrian while i saw quietly in the corner....

This is Part 2!

We had a bloody great time chatting to Rob this week, so much so we spent 2.5hours chatting. He actually admitted at the end that he forgot we were recording! Because of this, we've split it into 2 chats. If you like technical chat, you'll like this episode. If you like industry chat, you'll like this episode. If you like Rob, you'll like this episode. If you like high tech new material chat, you'll like this episode. And, if you like knob jokes, you'll like this episode!

Episode 33 see's us trying something different again - we're doing live interviews now. But don't worry, we're just as bad at these as we are doing regular 'studio' recordings. Shaky microphones, loud noises and interuptions everywhere - those of you after prime audio will be spitting feathers!

However, it only seemed right to get some wisdom from the Industry veterans on the beach in Littlehampton this weekend just gone, and try show you the listeners some insight into the inner workings of some of the brands we know and love.

Today's episode Liam and I had a catch up on the goings on of the event we were at - IKSURF and Tonic Mag's demo weekend at Littlehampton on the south coast of the UK. We chat with Liam Dredge who is part of the GWA and GKA global events commentary team - he gives us a run through of life on the event calendar and what we can expect from them coming up. Good pal and UK Cabrinha rider Jack gives us a run down of his recent goings on and Tris from the OTC gives us some insight into the hot products coming out of Armstrong at the moment

We hope you enjoy the spontaneity and spur of the moment questioning, because i've got another entire episode with some of the other faces and names from the weekends - working with brands you all know and love. Keep an eye out for that one very soon too!

Today Liam and Freddie catch up together to discuss a few new topics as well as dissecting recent sessions -

We'll both be down at Littlehampton on the south coast next weekend (9/10/11th June) for the IKSURF and TONIC mag demo weekend. Freddie will be there with everything from Ozone and Axis on show (and we're hoping the new Ozone Flux wing will arrive just in time for it!), and Liam will be mooching around like all good journalists do. Come and say hey to both of us - its always good to meet likeminded wangers!

for now we hope the waves come back soon! follow us on instagram for more up to date conversations and ping us a message on there or via email with any questions!

Hot off the back of some insane swells that got 'wedding cake island' break off the coast of Sydney firing, Jeremy joins us for a catch up to relive the days and discuss the future of big wave foiling, and the gear needed to push things forward. Check out his socials if you haven't already to see some pics and look out for more footage coming soon. ⁠@oceanpixels⁠
