How long have you been shredding for?
Tried snowboarding with hard boots and a + + stance when I was 10. Hated it. Started again when I was 16 and been shredding since.
What’s your most embarrassing moment?
You don’t want know….but it involves a McDonalds breakfast and a hotel bathroom……
Who is your inspiration?
Anyone having fun on a board.
What would you be doing if you weren’t boarding?
When I was a kid, I always wanted to grow up to be a scare-crow…..
What was your favourite toy as a kid?
A glow worm that had a light inside. I took it everywhere.
What can’t you leave home without?
I don’t really know. Nothing that important that I can fit in my pocket.
What can you not stop doing that you shouldn’t really be doing?
I suppose drinking would be the obvious one. But I don’t think I should stop.
Scariest moment of your life?
Riding in Portes du Soliel, bad weather day, couldn’t see more than 20ft but quite a lot of snow. I thought I knew where I was and there was a roller I went to pre-ollie. Turned out to be a cornice in to a couloiur. Managed to get my heel edge in on top of the cornice but it broke off and I went about 35ft down the couloiur and started tomohawking over some rocks and then just suddenly stopped. Thought I was gonna get seriously hurt when I was flipping but came out of it fine, somehow.
Water balloon or super soaker?
Super soaker. My aim sucks.
What is your favorite movie?
Surfs up. Hands down. What more do you want than surfing penguins for the summer. Out cold for the winter.
Worst habit?
Picking my nose.
Do you think clowns are cute or scary?
I think they’re clever. Making a living out of dressing up, painting your face and dance around a bit.
Ever been arrested? If so what for?
Can’t say I have.
If you won the lottery, what would you do with it?
Go traveling and take my mates with me. Just have a real good time I reckon.
