Amateur Wakeboarding

Competing in amateur wakeboarding in Surrey

In my free time I am a cable wakeboarder, this is a hobby I have enjoyed since 2007. In the last four years I have started competing as an amateur / rookie wakeboarder. This has taken me all round the country to compete at various cable skis, it’s good fun and I’ve made lots of lovely friends. I was the CHAMPION of the Rookie Ladies Grass Roots Tour South Series 2016!

I train at WMSki in The Cotswolds, my coaches are Steve and Charlie, the chaps have helped me progress my riding this year into all sorts 180s, switch riding on obstacles and grabs. I definitely wouldn’t be good enough to compete if it wasn’t for my friend Matthew, who very kindly painstakingly taught me the fundamentals of wakeboarding – cutting to obstacles correctly, landing, going over a rail to the end and helping me not be scared. In 2017 I started to compete at a junior level in Slalom Water Skiing, which is a sport I’m still very new to, but it’s good fun!
