TEAM RIDERS

Foil Drive Team Riders are our Foil Drive family. These guys live and breath all aspects of foiling and each have their own love for Foil Drive. You'll find them all over the world, from time at Foil Drive events, and always keen to share their froth!

Our Ambassadors are an extension of our brand and are people who truly want to share what can be done with Foil Drive, respectfully and responsibly. From pro riders to local frothers. Our family is big but each and every one of these riders embodies Foil Drive and are all keen to share with you their journey!
