Sharing wakeskating with a beautiful community and crew
Why wakeskating? What makes it special to you?
I think the diversity and freedom of it. From boat, cable, jets ski and winching it’s all unique in its own way but yet you can still draw parallels. After all these years it is now a part of me and I’m so grateful this sport chose me.
How did you start wakeskating?
I had a great group of older influences in life who got me progressing from skateboarding, to wakeboarding and finally wakeskating.
