Mike has the recipe!
Mike has a real gift for coaching. He takes complex, intimidating tricks and breaks them down into simple, actionable steps you can actually remember and execute once you’re out on the water. As a rider, when tricks become more advanced, there are so many things to think about that it’s easy to get overwhelmed.

Mike knows exactly how to distill all that complexity into a few key things you can focus on, without losing the important nuances.
What makes him exceptional is how quickly he can identify what’s missing. There’s no guesswork. He knows what needs to change and gives you precise, real-time feedback to help you make those adjustments. Combined with video analysis, he makes it incredibly easy to visualize your progress, understand what you’re doing well, and see exactly what you need to improve.
And he does all of this while maintaining an incredibly positive and motivating environment. He listens, adapts to where you are, and always finds a way to reframe challenges constructively. You feel supported and confident, even when working on difficult tricks.
I’ve done two clinics with Mike, one as a near beginner and another as an advanced intermediate rider. Both were extremely valuable. While the benefits of coaching might seem obvious for advanced riders working on complex tricks, I’d actually recommend Mike’s clinics much earlier in your progression, even if you’re just starting to reach 5 meters on your jumps. That’s when developing the right foundations makes an enormous difference. Learning the right techniques early on helped me progress much faster and reach an advanced level in a relatively short time, without having to unlearn bad habits along the way.
I’ve competed in other sports for over a decade and have worked with many coaches along the way. Mike is, without hesitation, the best coach I’ve ever had, across any sport. His clinics have been the best learning experiences I’ve ever had.
If you want a shortcut to results, Mike has figured it out.
