about
THE OCEAN AS HER HORIZON
For Naumi Eychenne, the ocean has been part of daily life since childhood. Originally from Huahine in French Polynesia, she grew up between boating, surf sessions, and afternoons on the beach. Water became her playgroundโa space of freedom where she discovered the joy of gliding at a very young age.
"Yes, I've spent my days in the water since I was little," she confided to TotalWing in 2023. A sentence that tells of her connection to this environment and the important role it plays in her life. While surfing remains her first passion, her curiosity led her to explore other disciplines: kitesurfing, outrigger canoe, then foil and wing.
Now a medical school graduate, Naumi managed to balance her studies with her passion for the water, always finding precious equilibrium in the ocean throughout her journey. Every time she gets back in the water, she reconnects with what has driven her since her first waves: the joy of practicing, learning, and sharing sessions.
