#15 – Robby Naish – The Windsurfing Podcast
Do we really need to tell you who Robby Naish is? Guess not!
What we can tell you is that Maciek didn’t make it easier on him than anyone else.
How did he even become so good?
Why did he stay on tour after he stopped winning?
Why did he start a brand when he said it’s the last thing he’d do?
Why didn’t he want to give custom boards to Kauli and Brawzinho?
What really happened with Bernd Roedriger?
And how far can one stick one’s head up one’s ass?
For this and much more tune in. The King is in the house!

Excellent episode once again! Nice to hear about Robby’s perspectives on business and the industry also!
Keep it up like this, Maciek!
Superb interview. Robby comes across really well – warm, generous and grateful for everything the sport’s allowed him to do. Needed that!
I feel like I’ve met my hero!
Awesome interview! Great to hear Robby’s experience and get a sense of the man behind the legend.
