One of the most promising up and coming young riders in wave riding, Willow looks just at home in heavy Mauritian barrels as many of the tour’s most experienced riders. Although originally from South Africa, he’s been lucky enough to spend much of his childhood in Mauritius so cut his teeth on the proving grounds at One Eye and his stoke is infectious Γ’β¬β he literally never stops smiling. He won the Best Rookie award in 2017 and we can’t wait to see how he builds on that in 2018 .One of the most promising up and coming young riders in wave riding, Willow looks just at home in heavy Mauritian barrels as many of the tour’s most experienced riders.
