Contactamos a Chris por mail hace un tiempo atrás y le contamos nuestra idea de hacerle una entrevista.

El conocía a JSLP por haberlo escuchado a Ross Champion  contando su experiencia en Argentina.

Toda la entrevista fue en ingles vía MSN. Agradecemos a Martin Carusotti de Prodivisión por la ayuda técnica en ingles.

1. when did you start to ride jet ski since ? I started riding jet ski's with my dad when i was 4 years old he used to put me in the front of the tray on our stand up and ride around. I was around 7-8 when i first rode by myself and from then on i was addicted. I would ride around with some of my buddies all day long on the river. I was 16 years old when i experienced the surf for the first time, After i hit my first wave i was hooked. I would beg my dad to take me riding every weekend. Last year i met some of the Oside Crew on X-h20.com and i have been riding for a year in the surf with them.

2. what was your first jet ski ? My first jet ski was a 1988 kawasaki 650sx

3. Wath another sport do you practice? I also ride motocross but i only do that for fun.

4. Do you make some special physical training? Yes i usually go to the gym and train 3-4 times a week to keep in shape.

 5. what jetski do you use and where upon preparation? I use a 2001 Yamaha superjet. The motor is all stock but the ski is all reinforced with footholds, Strap, shortened pole, with Short quick steering and of course a bilge pump. 

6. for you, who is for you the best Rider of the world?  Ross Champion is my favorite rider and i look up to him very much. He is the most humble person i have ever met. He is also one of the most generous and welcoming persons i know. I have learned a lot of my technique from Ross and always have a great time when i ride with him. He also is a extremely well rounded rider and really does a lot for this sport and the people involved.

7. you compete in the IFWA championship? I do not compete in the IFWA as of now but i am planning on competing at a couple events in the next year or so.

 

8. what is your better trick?  i would say my favorite trick to do is a point back nose stab.

How to Nose Stab Point Back ?  First you want to approach a wave that is just about to break and as  steep as possible. As you come up the face of the wave you want to  start your turn to the left or right whatever you are more  comfortable with. this will help the ski complete the 180. As the ski starts to leave the wave you wanna rotate your hips and turn your head towards the beach and as you do this take your hand off the bars  and point towards the beach. Once you are sideways you wanna grab back on the bars  and rotate your hips so that you finish the 180 and when you are about to enter the water you want to lift your to your stomach so that the nose of the ski enters the water first.

9. you know something of the Argentinean Raiders ? I don't know of any yet. But i look forward to meeting and riding with them in the future. 

10. where you live ? I live in Mission Viejo California.barrel.jpg (31818 bytes)

11. how many days per week you practice, and haw many hour in a day ?  I usually ride 2-3 times a week depending on the surf and conditions. Each ride is for a about 2 hours.
