Water Sports Factory Insider · based in China

I am on the water most weekends. During the week I am inside factories.

I started paddling in Suzhou and ended up spending more time with the people who make the gear than with the people who sell it. That is how this channel started: no script, no showroom, just the line.

Most buyers outside China see a catalogue and a price. They never see the mold, the oven, the QC bench, or the difference between a factory that can hit a deadline and one that cannot. I film the difference.

I work in Chinese and English, I am on the ground in the Yangtze Delta, and I have no incentive to send you to a factory that pays me — because none of them do.
