Pierre Mortefon. The 2019 PWA World Slalom Champion. Some might say well overdue as already in 2015 he was very close to getting it. He lost on a tiedbreak to Antoine Albeau and to make it worse it took hours after the racing was done for him to find out since nobody knew what the rules were. How did that change him? What is his relationship with Matteo Iachino and Antoine Albeau his title ever-present title rivals? How did his aproach towards no rules after the life-threatening crash with Taty Frans? Do you get slower when your first child is born? All that and a lot more in the newest installment of The Windsurfing Podcast.

Welcome to ‘The Windsurfing Podcast’ this is where we are going to dive deep into the world of professional windsurfing. World Champions, legends, shapers, activists, industry members, media people… they will all get grilled by Maciek Rutkowski – a professional windsurfer himself, PWA race winner, podium finisher, and, by his own admission, the sports biggest fan. Sit back, grab a drink, and enjoy an exclusive look into the minds of windsurfing’s most interesting people.
