My Freestyle Competions

Once I learned ski control and won a few of my first races, I realized that racing was too relentless for me. I then made my way into the freestyle scene. Wound up going to only freestyle competitions and sold my race ski. And made my way into freestyle shows and build my first ski for freestyle only.

And made my first flat water
backflip....




 


I know am building and selling Jet Skis on a regular basis and have stepped up to a national level of competing and riding at U.S events.
I currently own a freestyle Jet Ski worth upwards of $19,000, little better than my first ski worth $800.

How I got started.

I started Jet Skiing when I was 12. I saw some people out racing at Center of Gravity in Kelowna, and knew that one day I wanted to race. I thought it was the coolest thing to be riding at over 120km/h on the water on such a small machine. Later on that year I bought first Jet Ski from down in the states. Back then  the $800 ski I had bought was the most expensive thing I owned! I started riding it for the first time in January and knew that many cold water falls would be in store for that weekend.




Once I learned some ski control, I began racing in the 2010-2011 season and came second, and third overall for the weekend in that competition in Lake Chelan Washington.
