I started wakeboarding back in 2002.  I generally sucked all around for my first year, I couldn’t even clear the wake after the whole summer.  However, I still loved it enough to keep working at it and by the end of my second season I landed my first invert, a Tantrum (all thanks to Frank Good’s teaching awesomeness).  So pretty much I’ve been wakeboarding every year since and don’t plan on stopping…ever.  I love it more than pretty much everything and I’m lucky enough to be able to teach wakeboarding and…spread the love I guess.

Favorite Food?  Well I’ll eat just about anything.  My mom's cookies are pretty awesome though, and I eat a lot of cookies.  And steak.  I like steak.

Favourite trick?  Definetly tantrums.  Why? Because they’re easy, you can go huge on ‘em, and you can grab ‘em all sorts of super fun ways!  Yay grabs!

P.S. Grab all your tricks!....Aaaaalllllll of them!

Wakeboard Idol?  Chad Sharpe…….he’s got a super aggressive style but still keeps it clean…goes huge and he’s just done great things for Canadian wakeboarding and wakeboarding in general.
