Welcome to my world of surf, speed, and innovation.
Surfing Enthusiast from the Age of 3!
I caught my first wave at the tender age of 3. Surfing quickly became more than a hobby; it’s a way of life for me. The feeling of being at one with the ocean and harnessing its energy is a connection that’s stayed with me throughout my life.
On Two Wheels at Just 6 Years Old!
My fascination with speed and adrenaline didn’t stop at the ocean’s edge. By the age of 6, I was already navigating the world on two wheels, racing around on a motorbike. It was the start of a love affair with the open road and the mechanical symphony of engines.
Innovative Idea: The Motorized Surfboard (1986)!
In 1986, I had an idea that would change the world of water sports forever. It was the inception of the motorized surfboard, a concept that combined my passion for surfing with my love for engines. This visionary idea would go on to revolutionize the way we experience the waves.
Today, I continue to explore the thrill of the surf and the rush of the open road. Join me as I share my adventures, insights, and the story behind the innovation that is the motorized surfboard.
