TUGBOAT CAPTAIN / KITE FOILER

Joey Pasquali

Joey Pasquali is one of the original members of the TAC crew. Born somewhere around Santa Cruz—the historical records remain unclear—he grew up surfing, skating, skimboarding, and making the most of everything the Central Coast put in front of him.

Today, Joey works as a tugboat captain on San Francisco Bay and has become one of the fastest humans on a kite foil. Whether he’s navigating commercial vessels or flying across the water at unreasonable speeds, Joey has always followed his own line.

He’s been part of TAC from the early days, and we’re proud that he continues to carry the same Santa Cruz spirit wherever the wind takes him.
