Interview with Steve:
Why did you choose to team up with Starboard?
First because they are the best to help me achieve the best possible
results. Also I love development and dreaming of new innovative designs
where Starboard are always keen to try something new and different to find
the best product. While other companies tend to stay very conservative and not
to spend too much money on development.
What do you think of the new Starboard formula HWR & LWR?
Great combination of boards to suite everyone and all conditions.
What is your goal and what events will you do for 2010?
To be 1st in FW and top 3 slalom. To compete on the FW Gran Prix World Tour,
FW European and World Championships, and the PWA Slalom Tour.
