About Me:
I've spent most of my adult life playing about in boats on Windermere, where I've mastered pretty much all Water Ski related activities from Barefooting to Mono Trick Skiing back in the day. Board sports have always been my passion, and I'm constantly looking for the next challenge and Wake Foiling has been the latest to grab my attention. Snowboarding is my Winter activity of choice and Back Country Hiking and Deep Powder are what I dream of once we've packed the boats away for Winter.
I am a fully qualified and Licenced BWSW Level 2 Coach for both Water-skiing and Wakeboarding (There isn't yet a qualification for Wakesurfing, however I have developed very specific and effective techniques for teaching this discipline over the past 4 years).
I started Windermere Wakesurfing after relocating from Manchester following the sale of my business a few years ago. I feel very fortunate to live and work here in the Lake District and take great pride in sharing this amazing environment with our clients.
I love teaching and coaching others, It's incredibly rewarding to be able provide people with new and exciting experiences and help them achieve new skills. I couldn't really call this work, we're in the Smiles business!

About Me:
I'm Ed co-owner of Windermere Wakesurf. At 24 years old, I've spent my whole life on the water, starting with waterskiing and wakeboarding. I picked up wakeboarding when I was 9 and started wakesurfing at 16. My passion for the sport led me to compete at the World Championships in Wakesurfing. My goal is to push the limits of wakesurfing and foiling while introducing these incredible sports to as many awesome locations as possible. Through Windermere Wakesurf, I’m dedicated to sharing my love for the water and helping people of all levels experience the thrill of the sport.
