![]() ![]() I'm creating a team of people that are amazing, happy, fun people, and I want to share their videos and get them on board. If you go to my website, I have broken down where you can see eFoiling videos, kitesurfing videos, beginner videos, and specific playlists that are easy to choose from. Do you have a separate YouTube channel as well?īlake: Yeah, I've got hundreds of videos on there, and then I'm creating something like a video channel on the website because all my Ride with Blake videos are on MACkite's YouTube channel, but I have the links on my website as well. I gave them thousands of photos and videos to go through and share whenever.Īaron: That's amazing. I get the content, but I can't really keep up with it so my friend Huli in Egypt and a few other people are managing social media for Olsen Adventures. I have a team of friends of mine that are managing it. I also have Olsen Adventures on Instagram and Facebook. I have an amazing web designer in Spain who's a very good friend of mine, and we work pretty much around the clock on it. As you know, building a website is a big job. That's the best way that I've learned how to change the world, so that's my company and what I'm doing. It doesn't matter what your beliefs are, what your religion is, or what your political views are we all just want to have fun and enjoy ourselves, so if we have fun together, everyone is having a good time and none of that matters. I think that, through fun, it's the best thing we can do to change the world. This helps you have more fun and gets you doing all this stuff while hanging out, getting to know each other, and filming and documenting it all along the way. I take people to see beautiful, exotic places and line things up for you, or just come along on your vacations and adventures. I have taken people to Egypt who have never left America before, and that changes your life. I offer experiences and adventures for people. I know how hard it is for people to travel and see new places, or perhaps it's kind of scary and sometimes you don't feel comfortable going somewhere or going to a new kiting location by yourself. My parents are schoolteachers so we lived modestly, but growing up in the Middle East we were able to travel a lot more. I feel very privileged to have had a childhood like I did. We traveled the world windsurfing and climbing and doing all the fun things. My parents took me on adventures my entire life while growing up in Saudi Arabia. ![]() Do you want to give us a brief overview of what you're doing and where people can find more information?īlake: Yeah, so Olsen Adventures is my company, and then I work with amazing companies like MACkite and all the others. Dude, let's make sure we give you a plug for Olsen Adventures. I got to do some kiting there with Tommy Gaunt, who's a really legendary Scottish rider who has a school out there, so I had a great time.Īaron: Nice. Then we did a bunch of eFoiling, so it was pretty much 10 days of kiting, eFoiling, snorkeling, and exploring islands. He rode so long that I eventually had to tell him to stop because we were coming up to a reef. Next up was their little son, 11 years old and just ripping, having the best time. Then I took the husband out later, and he just crushed it at his first really long rides. Kiteboarding changes people's lives and brings you back to being a little kid again.īlake: Yeah. She wasn't really sure if she wanted to kite or not, but throughout this trip over the past 10 days I got her going, board on the feet, flying around. Then the wind picked up, so I took one of them out and she was ripping. I have some clients here with Olsen Adventures and I was going to take them for a sunrise session, but the wind was light so I went for an hour foil session. Today I woke up at 5am, did a little email and video editing, and then I hit the beach at 6:30 and rigged my kite. It's incredible here he's got quite a quite a thing going on.Īaron: So what have you been up to? I understand there's some confidential things that you can't disclose, but it sounds like you've been having some fun.īlake: Oh yeah. Behind me is Necker Island, where he lives. I'm in the BVI right now on Moskito Island, which is one of Sir Richard Branson's islands. Blake, where are you at buddy? What are you up to today?īlake: It's been a busy day. ![]()
