WSS Team
full time seasonal watersports manager - chris mullins
(Q) Chris when and where did you first start? (A) I started on the sea in Langstone harbour, Portsmouth when I was 12. I then went to Chichester waterski club when I was 16 as I was on the hunt for flat water. I was into wakeboarding for about three years before I got in slalom. Chris Likes: Mostly slalom but I also Kite surf and snowboard, any extreme sport really. Chris Dislikes: Rough water, as every skier does.
Chris's Coaching experience: I started off coaching friends and family behind my boat when I was 16, after that I got my BWS qualifications. I worked for mark warner in greece for a season in 2006. I have helped set up a kids coaching programme worked on that last season and then came here to work at WaterskiScotland this year. I have also volunteered in number of clubs in the UK and USA gaining valuable experience ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- driver/coach/reception - sam filsell
(Q) Sammy how did you first get into wakeboarding???
(A) Ummm, 6 years ago in Abersoch Nth Wales after watching wakestock. The riding was impressive and I loved the atmosphere of the sport.
Likes: Skiing, snowboarding and shopping but my first love is still wakeboarding in the sun and warmth.
Dislikes: Choppy water, wind and rain!!!!!
Coaching experince: I started off at Offaxis in Abersoch, where they helped me through all my BWS qualifications and I stayed there 3 years. I then went to Greece for a summer but the wakeboarding wasn't that good so went back to Offaxis for another year and I am now here, at WaterskiScotland. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
