What is your favourite place to ride and why?
I really enjoy riding in Hintertux in the Autumn, it’s the start of the season it’s so exciting to get back on snow, there is a sick crew of people out there, the weather is good, suns normally out and the park is on point pre season! And it’s not too cold so you can go glacial pool jumping after riding !!!
What age did you start snowboarding?
I was once a skier from the age of 4 at my local dry slope in Kent.., I started snowboarding when I was 12, I went 3 or 4 times but I really got into it when I turned 15 and I could get away at the weekends with friends!
What snowboarders do you most look up to?
Jenny Jones, she’s a fellow Brit, a true legend and charges so hard on big jumps! She has proved it doesn’t matter where your from anything is possible and that gives me lots of motivation. Also Cheryl Maas and Kimi Fascani are charging the way for progression. Doubles… It’s exciting to see how they are pushing the sport, and I really respect what they are doing out in the backcountry.
What do you focus on most – slopestyle? Pipe? Big Air? and why?
Slopestyle I really enjoy the variety and the different challenges each course brings. No course is ever the same so it always stays fresh!
What is your most memorable snowboarding experience?
Last season when the Chicken Jam in Mammoth got cancelled there was soo much snow and the mountain was shut, we hiked up off the road and built a tiny jump and had a mega huck session into the pow, it was so fun just trying new things and having a really fun crew, that’s the most important for me! We all got drenched in pow, learned new things and had a good laugh!
Your on the road a lot throughout the season – what is your favourite place to visit and why?
I really enjoyed NZ, it’s so far away from home, yet so similar, the people are super friendly it’s the most beautiful country and it’s so fun to ride there!
What does a normal day consist of for you when your not snowboarding?
If I am at home, gym, catch up with some friends in the evening and generally if there is swell head up to the North coast to surf at Portrush, we have a sick little surf scene in Northern Ireland!
How has TTR affected your snowboarding career?
There are so many comps for all different levels its a great way to progress starting with the smaller star comps, the tour is rad and it’s deffinatley something I am going to be following this year!
