If anyone know modern racing history they know of Phil McGain. On this podcast Anders Bringdal "credited" him with destroying the fun in windsurfing by profesionalizing the sport and especially the equipment side of things. After claiming his maiden World Title in 1989 he later famously focused on "The Team" project whose goal was simple - defeat Bjorn after over a decade of dominance. He discusses all that and more, including what he would give to salvage his relationship with once apprentice and friend Kevin Pritchard and why did he decide to become a triathlete at 50 years of age...
