#20 Nik Baker – The Windsurfing Podcast
6x Indoor World Champion, Aloha Classic Winner, 4x Wave Vice World Champion, and a Course Racing Vice World Champion Nik Baker is a 90s legend. He takes us from his humble beginnings at Brighton when he dreamt to become a professional windsurfer like Robby Naish, to beating the King in the Aloha Classic final. Super candid and very talkative this is for sure up there with the best podcasts we’ve done so far. And the Polakow impersonation is a cherry on top of the cake. Let us know if you agree!
Welcome to ‘The Windsurfing Podcast’ this is where we are going to dive deep into the world of professional windsurfing. World Champions, legends, shapers, activists, industry members, media people… they will all get grilled by Maciek Rutkowski – a professional windsurfer himself, PWA race winner, podium finisher, and, by his own admission, the sports biggest fan. Sit back, grab a drink, and enjoy an exclusive look into the minds of windsurfing’s most interesting people.
