Favorite Part of wakeboarding?Just being able to go out and enjoy the water with people I care about and having a chance to work with kids to be a positive infuence and spread the stoke of stylish wakeboarding to the next generation

What are your goals for 2010?Stay as involved as I can moving forward with my life and career. Keep coaching, doing clinics and lessons as often as I can and making it to a few more comps in Norcal this summer. I'd really love it and be so proud if my team does well at nationals but they know that I love them anyways.

What are you up to when your not riding? snowboarding, surfing, skating, running, working out. But mostly just working hard to take care of my family and trying to retire by 30.
