Ross got thrown onto a longboard pretty early in the relationship with Danielle and never really escaped.
Coming from a snowboarding background, the skills translated quickly and he soon became a regular helper on the Soulful Skate Co beginner courses. These days he’s a bit of a secret weapon in the sessions, especially when it comes to teaching foundations and helping people feel comfortable on the board.
Ross is a total engineering nerd, which means he loves understanding the mechanics behind skating. If you’re confused about why something works, he’ll probably have a simple analogy or explanation that suddenly makes it click.
He’s also a whizz around pump tracks and currently enjoying the rabbit hole of learning to slide.
Most importantly, Ross is great with people. He’s calm, encouraging, and really good at helping beginners relax and have fun. Being relatively new to skating himself also means he remembers exactly what it feels like to start, which makes him a brilliant person to learn alongside.
