TESTIMONIAL

My very first ski was a BOS Raptor it was passed through many hands at the club until it was time for me to start learning back in 2017. I remember being very hesitant when I first jumped on but that shortly passed when I realised how much fun they were, now many years later I look forward to ski legs and races on my BOS Tomahawk.

Nutri-Grain Ironman competitor 2021/22

I grew up in Blacksmiths, a small suburb in Newcastle NSW where every second person has some sort of involvement with the surf club there (Swansea Belmont SLSC) so it was only right for my Mum to enrol me into Sunday nippers at the age of 6. Instantly I fell in love with the ocean and started to show some glimpses of talent at a young age winning my first state title in the U11s.

I had my breakthrough moment a couple years later winning my first Australian title, the U15 Board Race. The next season I would then have my downfall moment tearing my ACL and MCL while playing rugby league forcing me to sit out a year, I focused on my rehab all through the 17s as well as focusing more on my Ironman racing.

I won the first Nutri grain next gen series in the U19s which allowed me to live out my dream of racing in the Nutri-Grain iron man series. I have made the move up to Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast in hopes of getting back into the professional series.
