Comments Off on Wakeboarding behind a ski boat!


I always want to try new things and I often hear people complaining about their wake, saying it’s not big enough. I love a big wake myself, but unfortunately I don’t have access to a massive wake all the time, so I’m used to riding old wakeboard boats with medium sized wakes.

So I thought I’d try to ride behind a ski boat and find out what’s possible. I must say, I’m shocked at what’s possible!!!! Crazy!!!

Thanks for watching! 🙂

Wakeboarding January 2016

So last week when I was doing some photo shoots on the Delta, Conor Bayuk created this absolutely awesome edit! We were taking some photos and Conor just thought it would be cool to do some filming.I’ve got to say, I wasn’t doing many tech tricks, and I was worries about how it would turn out, but Conor Smashed it!! The cinematography, the vibe, everything is cool about this edit. Huge thanks to Conor! What a legend!

Comments Off on 2015 Wakeboard World Championships, Mexico

So unfortunately semi-finals didn’t go as well as I’d hoped. I fell on a toe back 7 which I was a bit bummed about! At this level of riding there’s no room for error – especially when you’re in a heat with guys like Mike Dowdy, Dean Smith Phil Soven and Cory Teunissen .
So I ended up 9th but on the plus side, I stuck my 1st ever switch mobe 5 in contest, and I’m here in Mexico with an open bar and a bunch of good friends! 🍻🍹🍸.
Also big thanks to you all too for your support. It means a lot.

Thanks so much to Seb and Antoine for looking after us so well at BCP. Big thanks too to Elke Venken of Terhills Cable Park, also in Belgium, where we had a lot of fun. Look at this for a sunset!!

Wake to Wake documentary

Here it is. Part 1 of ‘Wake to Wake’. I really hope you enjoy it!

Just to give you a bit of background. Jonny MacCann of Apollo Entertainment came to me with the idea of making a documentary for Irish Television, that would help grow my brand, and more importantly the sport of Wakeboarding in Ireland. It got over 70,000 views on Setanta Sports Ireland and has really helped put Wakeboarding out there. Details
