I am a local bodyboarder from Cape Town, South Africa. Bodyboarding is a HUGE part of my life and it has taught me many important life lessons not only in the water but also in life, such as give someone the amount of respect they deserve and in return you will be respected by them. I have been bodyboarding for five years now and I doubt that i will ever grow tired of the sport. I live my life with the utmost stoke and good vibes each and every day. I am easy going, good natured, super layed back individual, every day in the water is a new adventure for me. I am currently studying my three year chef course and after that I plan to travel and surf the world. My local breaks include Longbeach in kommetjie and Kalk Bay Reef. I enjoy massive aerial manoeuvres and just getting solidly pitted in the mist insane waves that our prime coast line has to offer, that's abou tme in a nut shell. Oh and one last thing, I am far too stoked to be a part of the 2013 VOID Army!
