About Noé

24-year-old islander Noé Cantaloube grew up between Réunion and Tahiti, more at sea than on land - school by boat, every free minute in the water. In 2021 he stepped onto a foil for the first time and was instantly hooked: “A different connection with the ocean, unlike anything I’d felt before.” Since then, if it foils, he’s in: dock start, downwind, wing, surf foil, kitefoil - but his heart is in big-wave surf, especially at Nazaré. Splitting his time between Nazaré and Tarifa, he mixes dynamic breath‑hold sessions, weekly strength sessions and daily hours on the foil with one goal: ride smooth, precise and fully committed. With the first parawing front flip in foil history on his name, it really feels like he’s just getting started.
