On this episode of our podcast "up on foil" we talk to the current swiss champion in pump foiling: Robert von Roll.
He comes from a family of foilers and dockstarts on a river, not a lake.
He wrote a 51 page essay in high school and shares his tips on how to pump better and longer. Check out all our other episodes as well.
You'll find him on Insta @rob_on_rolls or on the water in Solothurn.
Thank you so much Robert for taking your time to talk to us!

You might know Ludo from the freestyle moves or his ultra-long-distance runs on his small lake.
Listen to the episode to find out how to go longer on your runs and how he feels when after 45 minutes, he hits seaweed.
Ludo is a French guy living in Germany, you'll maybe even be able to find his lake.
Sorry for the audio quality. Sometimes it is not perfect.
