TESTIMONIAL
Since 2015, I have exclusively used Reece’s skis and haven’t ever wanted to switch to another brand. The dedication and ingenuity put into each ski that is produced means that I can trust my gear in the surf, regardless of the conditions. This trust in BOS has allowed me to continually challenge myself and push my limits knowing that my ski is not only capable of keeping up but pushing me to be better. If you’re looking for the best, you only have to look at what is produced by BOS.

I’ve been a part of Newport SLSC since U6’s and have always enjoyed being around the beaches. During my early competition days, I wasn’t very successful, usually finishing in the bottom quarter of my events, but had fun being a part of the competitions not just within Surf Life Saving but also in Rugby Union.
Once I started to hit U15’s/U17’s I started to shift all my sporting focus into Surf Life Saving and was able to see some success in the sport, resulting in my first professional ironman race my first year out of high school. Since then, I’ve been competitive in the Nutri-Grain Ironman series the past 6 consecutive seasons and in 2022 graduated with a Bachelors of Biotechnology from UTS.
