Guy Bridge

Coach & British Sailing Team

Three wet wetsuits a day, every day.

Get to know Guy

Guy is the family member who gets through three wetsuits before dinner. He races kitefoil for the British Sailing Team, sends it in big-air comps and was one of the first to get properly good on a wing, and he is happiest doing all three in a day.

He is also the one behind the 400km foil downwinder film on our homepage. When he is not away racing, he coaches at Edge, so there is a decent chance your foiling lesson is with an Olympic-campaign athlete.

Known for

Home spot

Exmouth to Dawlish and back
