Q&A - Competition

How did you get started?

Well I moved to Oklahoma from California and needed to be on the water so some guys told me to try wakeboarding and it took me three weeks to get up but once I got it everything just clicked.

List your competitive highlights:

Wow. well I haven't done too much competeing however just about every weekend this summer I'm going to be competeing but in my last tournament I think the best part was riding along side those great riders and learning everything I can and pushing myself farther than I ever thought I could.

What are you planning for next season?

I'm planning on riding bigger and harder and just pushing my sponsor's at every stop and while I'm practicing on my home lake.

What has been your biggest accomplishment?

My biggest accomplishment has definitely been never giving up even when everything hurts and the waters choppy.

Go Big or Go Home!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Q&A - Personal

What inspires you to compete?

Well I would have to say the thing that makes me compete definitely has to be the fact that everytime I'm out there I get pushed to go even bigger and I'm also able to push my sponsor's more.

What has been your most embarrassing moment?

hahaha....my most embarrassing moment definitely has to be when I was trying to teach a kid the way to get up on a wakeboard and I ate it.

Describe your style...

My style is definitely GO BIG OR GO HOME!!!

How's Life Treating You?

Life is great right now. The water great, the board and I are one and all I can say is that the competition should watch out.

Do you train? What does your schedule look like?

Well everyday I'm on the water sometimes twice a day. I do alot of off-season training....mostly consisting of snowboarding.
