I am 15 years old, I live in Brandon Bay, Ireland. I began windsurfing when i was about 8 years old but didn't pick it up until the age of 12, by then I was hooked on watersports. I also love to Surf.
I spend every possible day I can on the water, Windsurfing, Surfing or Sup'ing on flat days. My favorite place to sail is a secret spot ;-) and my favorite place to surf is Drain Pipe.
Results : In Windsurfing I am currently joint first in the BWA (British Windsurfing Association) youths. And last year i came 2nd in the IWA (Irish Windsurfing Association) youths competition and 4th in the Sliver fleet in 2013. In the Irish national surfing series I am currently 5th in under 16 after 2 rather disappointing events held in poor conditions. But I hope to improve on my results in both sports as i compete in more competitions !

I have been windsurfing for far to long, I spent 10 years teaching water sports around the world before coming to Castlegregory in 1993 to work as Jamie Knox's first full time instructor. Where I met Kathleen my wife to be. I became a hat maker which is what we still do to this day as well as running our shop in Dingle "kathleen McAuliffe".
Ideal day in Brandon Bay. Massive Mossie's is always fun or big float and ride Gowlane on a 4.7.
Worst. 2ft Starboard tack jumping day.
