I started snowboarding on a holiday in the French Alps where the only board they had left to rent was a 165 and the forecast was snow all week. I was 16 and loved i - but I ate a lot of snow that week. I learnt more over the next years, riding dryslopes and snowdomes in the UK. After that I went around with work and snow to fill the need. I hold the highest grade of snowboard instructor certification in the world, and love sharing snowboarding with all different people and abilities. I spend my non-snow time trying to ride waves at the beach, skateboarding or working with regerative cultivation, forestry and carpentry. Go fast & hold on tight :)
TELL US ABOUT A STAND-OUT MOMENT FROM YOUR SNOWBAORD CAREER.
Really hard to say but over the years the thing I appreciate is the type of snow we get to ride and the beautiful people I often get to Ride it with.
WHEN YOU'RE NOT SNOWBOARDING, WHAT DO YOU LOVE DOING?
I'm a carpenter, forestier so normally dealing with some beautiful wood.
WHAT'S A PIECE OF ADVICE YOU WISH YOU HAD WHEN YOU STARTED OUT SNOWBOARDING?
No idea. It's worked out pretty well so more just to pass on information to early snowboarders, enjoy and have fun, that's the only point!!
FAVOURITE SPOTIFY PLAYLISTS?
Don't have Spotify :)
