A good few weeks.


The past few weeks have been real good, Hintertux, Whitelines feature, Head advert and to top it 3rd place at the Battle of Britain big air at the London Freeze.


My last week in Hintertux training with Team GB was good weather. I was able to perfect my backside spins and land bs7 thanks to coaching from Hamish Mcknight.

I have had a full page of coverage in the first snowboard magazine of the new season, with a contender page in Whitelines. The picture was taken from the photo shoot i went on with Head international team in Flaine back in April..

and then Head picked out the best pic from that session in Flaine, sooo stoked i have been used for my first ever advert for one of my sponsors, a Head advert in the first edition of this years Reason Magazine, get you free copy of this awesome free mag at your local snowboard shop!! :D


Then this weekend I came back to the U.K for the London Freeze festival. Was the first time i had ever hit a scaffolding city center jump it, was so scary!!! haha was a good few days! I took 3rd place in the Battle of Britain, couldn't believe it, was soooo stocked!!

Hintertux Austria

I have been in hintertux the past 2 weeks with the british freestyle team. The 1st week was good weather and a sick jump setup, i was really enjoying being back on the snow and looking forward to learning some new tricks. However the weather changed which brought some snowfall and so park has now been shut for all this week, we have kept ourselves busy skating (learnt blunt to fakie in the mini), swimming, trampolining and biking. The weather forecast looks good from tomorrow so hopefully the park and jumps will be back in good shape so we can start to throw down. Fingers crossed the good weather will stick around for a good few days / weeks .
