Born and raised on the West Coast, I fell into the sport of Water Skiing when I was young and have never looked back. Skiing at home with Mum and Dad I came through the Junior ranks, and have become one of New Zealand's best skiers. Recently I have turned my focus to coaching the sport I love and over the years have learnt how to get the best out of the athletes who choose to ski with me. I started my coaching career at one of the worlds finest ski schools, Jack Travers Water Ski School and brought that knowledge home. I have coached NZTWSA Ski Schools for coming on 10 years and I hope I get to share my passion and knowledge with you in the future!
"I have skied with Alex for many years at Jack Travers WaterSki School. Over that time he has been one of my go to coaches, not only does Alex have a keen eye for technical flaws but also has the ability to easily communicate what he sees, no matter the skier"
“What has impressed me the most is that Alex approaches each person, regardless of their skill level or ability, with the utmost professionalism and focus. Skiers come away from a coaching session with Alex feeling encouraged, positive, and motivated.”
"Alex has a strong work ethic, always ready to put his best foot forward in whatever he takes on. He is a great motivator and works hard to ensure those he coaches not only perform to their best but also enjoy themselves as well."
