We are so proud of everything young has accomplished in and out of the water.

Our own, Robbie Sherwell, had the honour of coaching Rio for 3 years thanks to Hayden from at the time. Here’s what Robbie had to say about his time with Rio.

β€œRio was the most disciplined surfer I’d met & showed the most eagerness to learn how to to construct smart competitive strategies to implement into his routine. He told me he wanted to make the tour, I believed he could do it and he did!” - Robbie Sherwell

If you’re wanting to develop a competitive edge or mindset, booking in with Robbie will kick start you on that journey.
