Bataan Kitesurfing Philippines

Originally born in the Province of Bataan, moved to the US at age 10 and lived in San Diego California. Joined the US Navy right after High School and traveled to 36 different countries around the World.
In 2008 when I was stationed in Misawa Japan I had the passion for two things; Snowboarding and being the DJ at “Club Peekaboo” at the time I thought Snowboarding was going to be the only sport I would revolve my world around to. Until I went on vacation and landed in Boracay where I saw Kitesurfing for the very first time. As an adventurist I did my research on this sport bought my first gear (trainer kite, 8m Rush kite and kite board).
At that time I have move to Guam and that's where it all began. I fell in love with not only Kitesurfing but Spearfishing, Salt Water fishing and Riding GSXR Motorcycles.

Living in Guam at the time there where only a few kiters on the Island. All of them became my friends and had great impact towards on me learning the sport.
It was easy. All I had to do is bring a case of Beer (Bud Light) and they let me on some tips when it comes to flying the kite and off course my well being and Safety.

Safety safety safety (SAFETY FIRST). I stress on this because it is the most import part of Kiteboarding and in any other sports that you do plus having 20yrs of Military background and a US NAVY CHIEF I gain much in this department.

2010-2013 I was stationed in THAILAND and there work for the US Embassy. Having a great Boss and every week free of schedule most of my days was spent on the beach in Pranburi where I Joined Willy and the crew of KITE TOUR ASIA as their DJ and Competitive Rider.
I also have gained the trust of LIQUID FORCE KITE-SURFING / WAKE-BOARDING and awarded me with some of their products and Rider Discounts.
Those 3 yrs I have had the opportunity to meet and hangout with some of the BEST riders around the WORLD. Example: Marek Rowenski, Kristin Oja. “YO” Naraphichit Pudla , Doque De Losantos,Ken Nacor, Bong, Jay, Christian, Paula Rosales and much others. That was the time when PKA was just starting to form.
