TESTIMONIAL

I have paddled a BOS Surf Ski for almost 10 years (since I was 15 years old) and never paddled anything else. I have owned eight BOS Ski’s over my career and every one has been made to an exceptional standard. Not only are they the fastest skis on the market, but the experience with the BOS team from start to finish is always second to none. I am grateful for all the support from the BOS team over many years and very much look forward to continuing to race on the best skis in the business.

I grew up playing all sports but focused strongly on Soccer, Touch footy and Surf Life Saving as I got older. This transitioned fully to Surf Life Saving in my later years of high school, following my brother and the older guys in Newport Surf Club. I loved training at the beach every day and hanging out with my mates. I am very ambitious in both my sport and work environment. I started working full time in Finance and Property in 2021 and had a small break from competing. This break helped me find my drive again for Ironman Racing and I have very much enjoyed the challenge of balancing training and full time work the last 10 months.

My days generally look like; training with the squad in the morning, straight to work from 8am-5:30pm, then will head to the pool in the afternoon or gym by myself. I am very close with my family and friends, both of which play a big part in my life and help me pursue my career and sporting goals on a daily basis.
