The Everydayers | Marilyn Knecht – Proof That Passion Never Ages

A solid message to everyone out there: Proof that passion never ages. Armstrong follows Marilyn Knecht on what lights her up.


The Everydayers celebrate the riders who show up purely for the love of being on the water. They are the quiet local legends who inspire the whole community just by doing what they love. At 76 years young, Marilyn Knecht proves that passion knows no age. From surfing the Oregon coast in the 60s to windsurfing for more than 45 years, and now mastering wingfoiling, she has dedicated her life to the water. Foiling is her daily meditation, her joy and her reminder that movement keeps us alive. Join Marilyn in Maui as she shares her story, her mindset and the stoke that keeps her returning to the ocean every single day. Get outside, get inspired and never let age define your limits. Know someone who fits that spirit? Tell us, and we would love to share their story!

Special thanks to Annie Reickert, Marilyn and Greg Knecht
