Together with our podcast host Timm Kruse, Mathis talks about his beginnings of sailing on a Flying Bee, the structure and function of moths and the extraordinary speeds achieved when foiling. This sailing technique enables boats to literally fly over the water with the help of hydrofoils. However, the focus of this episode is on building your own moths. Mathis gives listeners tips and tricks for building their own moths and explains what is important.
The 27-year-old is also involved in technical developments such as how metal can be used instead of carbon for foils. He also explains how 3D models are used to improve the design. The moth self-builder gives insights into his training to strengthen his sailing skills, as well as the important safety and protection measures during regattas. In conversation with Timm Kruse, Mathis discusses injury risks, preventative and physical preparation measures.
The talented boat builder provides insights into the Moth sailing community and talks to professionals like Philipp Buhl. In the latest episode, you can find out what Mathis' goals are in the class and which new water sport he has already equipped himself for.
