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 to snow all week. I was 16 and loved it. I ate a lot of snow. I learnt more over the next year's riding dryslopes and fridges in the UK. After that I went around with work and snow to fill the need. I am the highest grade snowboard instructor in the world and love sharing snowboarding with all different people and abilities. Most of the non snow time I spend trying to ride waves at the beach, skatboarding or working with regerative cultivation and forestry and carpentry. Go fast and 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 :)
