Sailing iQFOil
19 years old, Athens
Pachos Papastefanou
Today, what blows her mind is the feeling of the air and the sea, and the incredible adrenaline of iQFOil’s high speed. Speed makes the sport exciting, although challenging to handle. The equipment required is identical for all men and women. However, men have a sail of 9 sq.m. and women of 8 sq. m.
At 16, she went for training alone, broke her shoulder after a mishandling and got out of the water without help. After that, she overcame her fears of speed and injuries.
We are deeply committed to the pursuit of excellence in sports. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to support these incredible individuals on their journey to greatness.
