Most Oarsome Moment on the Water:
Some say it was the seamless and deadly efficiency of the planned raft re-flip in the Llandysul enduro event, others say holding my breath for 5 mins whilst retrieving my lost 20p piece from the bottom of the rapids in London whilst battling 14000 litres per second of rampaging water.
Most oarsome off water moment:
I am never truly off water; having developed a skill to permanently immerse up to 70% of my internal body in water and occasionally add a deluge of 5 to 55 % alcohol to prevent freezing.

What First Attracted You to the World of Professional Raft Racing?
Having conquered the majority of adrenaline fuelled sports including unicycle downhill racing, Base Jumping with tablecloth chute, extreme ironing and IED lawn bowls, I thought that rafting seemed the natural progression; and I wasn’t wrong! All we need is a few Piranhas in the water to clean up the unskilled!
