About

Greetings, Fellow Frother!

You’ve stumbled upon the web home of the progression project and I’m Erik Antonson. The progression project is an excuse to explore whatever I’m fired up or curious about. Currently, that is foil surfing, the learning process, understanding flow states and what drives us to chase these sports, and the journeys of others chasing the same dreams.

I host The Progression Project Podcast which has over 5,000 consistent listeners and I’m currently working with UniFoil on a signature foil. Before the dive into foil surfing, I spent 5 years doing a similar project in SUP surfing and hosted the Paddlewoo Podcast and produced two films – Conversessions won SUP Movie of the Year and The Progression Project. From 2006-2016 I founded and ran Surfing Nosara.
