about | I am 18 years old, I am lucky to live In wave sailing heaven of Brandon Bay,Ireland I first stepped on a windsurf board when I was 6 but didn't get into it until I was about 13 years old, I have been hooked ever since then ! I sail because of the excitement I get from catching and riding waves, And the drive to always improve my sailing is another reason I enjoy sailing. It is great fun sharing waves with my Dad and pushing each other to be better than one another. Other than Windsurfing my main hobby is defiantly Surfing, I always love to spend time at the beach so when there isn't enough wind to sail I always go Surfing. I feel surfing really works with my Windsurfing, My surfing gives wave knowledge and a different wave sailing style. |
