Foil Life Travel Show #9 - Maui Wing Foiling Lessons & Kitesurf Intl with Carolina Dickenson

On this episode, Luc Moore sits down with Carolina Dickenson aka Caro, founder of Maui Wing Foiling Lessons and Kitesurf Intl, for an inspiring conversation about passion, empowerment, and building a life around wind sports.

From her early days in offshore banking in Barbados to discovering kitesurfing and completely changing her trajectory, Carolina shares her journey into the wind world. She opens up about starting Kite Sirens with friends to get more women into kitesurfing, organizing coastal trips in Spain, and the deep personal empowerment the sports brought her during a challenging time in her life.

Carolina discusses transitioning to wing foiling, the accessibility and magic of teaching it, and why it’s such a powerful tool for breaking self-limiting beliefs. She dives into the unique conditions on Maui’s North Shore — from beginner-friendly spots at Kanaha Beach Park and the harbor to wave riding at Ka’a — and her plans for downwinder adventures with jet ski support. She also talks about her roots in Barbados, the beautiful conditions there for kiting and winging, and what makes her teaching style unique with headsets, personalized learning approaches, and psychological insight.
