Julien Salles - F-One Foils and Manera Socks
About this episode
A fantastic chat with the man in charge of one of the most successful companies in foiling. Julien Salles is the General Manager of F-One - he runs all disciplines of the company including his own personal baby, Manera.
The son of the founder, Julien gives us a run down of how his position within the business has changed over the years and how it was during the early years of F-One.
F-one shouldn't need any introduction to anyone in foiling - they hit the nail on the head so early on with their Swing Wing and have backed that up with not only more wings, but also a fantastic range of foils and a solid board selection. How has a reasonably small french company done so well globally?
A great chilled chat with a sound bloke - we both really enjoyed how laid back this one was - and we look forward to receiving our new pairs of Manera socks in the mail!
