Worst Wipeout: Only our 2nd or 3rd day out at fistral and simple here wanted to be out the back with the big boys! It took me ages to get there and once I did there was nowt! Sat there for 5 mins talking to the others and trying to look the part when all of a sudden I realised how naive I had been. These huge waves started rolling up - I attempted to get up on one knee, before I got thrown everywhere, still attached to the ironing board I'd hired. I felt very lucky walking up the beach trying not to look in pain!
Favourite Manoeuvre: Surviving and just being out there with my mates.
Worst Surfing Habit: Planning a days surf with WSL and Sean Penn and having to cancel cos I got called into work. Adult life sucks!!!!
Best Surfing Experience: Our 1st time out at fistral, we hired ironing boards - Jerry, Sean Penn and myself. Wetsuits on, we must of laughed from start to finish. Must be male bonding or being at one with nature or something!
Other Interests: Rugby, work, drinking, kids & the Mrs (notice the order of priority - ha,ha, hope she doesn't see this!)
