I’ve always been pretty addicted to water, when I was at school I’d compete in the swimming galas, probably the only sport at the time that I could actually win things. My parents always said I used to jump in to any water I could find before I was even able to swim. They had to keep a close eye on me.
Since then I travelled a lot with my family on a yacht before eventually coming back to the UK and I soon got in to Dinghy sailing. I did this for a few years finally winning the Nationals and coming 2nd at the Worlds in 2005 in the Laser 4.7 (Youth class).
I got in to windsurfing about 2005/6 and really got hooked. So I spent all my time on that whilst at Uni (2006-09) doing that and learning freestyle and going wave sailing once in a while. I really never get bored of it, or over it, each time is as good as the last, if not better! It’s an incredible sport and I’m super happy to be able to enjoy it that bit more with the incredible warm and resilient Spartan suits and just as happy to be officially welcomed in to the Spartan team…this is SPARTAAA!
I plan to hit the full PWA World Tour over the next couple of years having tried a couple events already. Alongside this I enjoy more just going to these incredible locations and creating videos for people to enjoy. Each project seems to get a little bit bigger than the last…so watch this space.
