Favorite Trick: Anything thrown clean and proper always look and feel good on the FlowRider. I’m a big fan of skateboard style tricks.
Favorite Quote: Saying “YEET” before I throw something.
Why is Flowboarding Fun to you? : I can’t describe it, it’s just the best feeling ever. Once you find the balance point and learn to carve back and forth, you're hooked. It’s just awesome being on the water and riding with friends and learning new tricks, challenging yourself, encouraging friends to try new tricks and progress. Even solo sessions when it’s just you is amazing. Actually... even the drive home feeling all relaxed and listening to your music is just amazing in itself. You feel all refreshed and mentally cleansed. That stoke stays with you for the rest of the day. It’s very therapeutic.
What makes you laugh? : Old comedies that people would say are stupid. I have a weird sense of humor. Monty python and the holy grail, airplane etc. I actually ONLY watch comedies. I don’t like dramas or horror movies or anything like that. I try to keep the good vibes and stay laughing. I definitely don’t keep up with the Kardashian’s.
What are you doing when you are not flowboarding? : I grew up riding BMX and skateboarding from a very young age and still ride to this day. I was a pro wakeskater for 12 years and traveled a lot with that. I also play music and build cars and choppers. I have too many hobbies. My son’s due date is June 22nd 2019, so by the time you’re reading this I’ll probably just be changing a lot of diapers and hanging out with him! haha
