Leo Suardiaz

Leo Suardiaz Münzinger is the younger brother of Nia – a dedicated Wing Foiling talent, as well. In 2022 Leo made his GWA World Cup debut in his hometown of Tarifa.

When and where did you start Wing Foiling?
At Lake Garda in August 2021

What’s your watersports history – from which side did you enter Winging?
I started surfing when I was 5 and did also my first steps of windsurfing.

What do you love about Wing Foiling?
I love all the cool tricks and the light feeling gliding without touching the water surface.

What’s your favourite conditions?
I really like Levante up to 35 knots.

What’s your top advice for a beginner?
Start with the right equipment and with a teacher. Boom is easier at the beginning. Go as soon as possible with a foil. Get the DUOTONE Academy App, watch all the steps as often as possible and get connected with other riders. Also try to start with a friend – that is much more fun.

Boom or handles?
Handles, because it is much more direct in the tricks.
