As a kid, he always dreamed of being a fantastic surfer and doing it every day. He found that the fastest way to achieve this was by studying surfing technique and approaching it like other established Olympic sports. Every surfer, pro or not, goes through a path in their development. Locating yourself on this path and understanding the skills necessary to get to the next level is essential in the progression of a surfer’s journey.
