Born in 2010 and raised on the water through offshore sailing, Australian rider Oliver Young fell in love with winging and especially pump foiling three years ago. Oliver combines a passion for riding with a natural talent for equipment design. Having already built his own custom race boards, stabilizers, and front wings, he approaches the sport with a relentless drive for speed and efficiency. Partnering with SABFOIL, Oliver represents a unique mix of fresh young talent and innovative spirit.
