Downwind SUP Foiling with TJ
An epic SUP foiling session. Video proof gone viral. And lots of questions. TJ offers answers (and more epic footage) to get you riding high on the river, and shares how today’s gear makes it easier than ever.
Go Foil M200 and M280 with 24.5” mast
TJ Gulizia hails from Omaha, Nebraska and has been SUP foiling for two years. When he’s not soaring over the river, he’s cheering for the Kansas City Chiefs, running white water on an inflatable paddle board, or testing drysuits in 39 degree water.
