Get to know George

What inspired you to pursue your sport?

I was a completive swimmer through college and few years beyond. I initially found prone paddling as a great cross training tool for surfing but then I got the racing bug 

What are your Go Beyond achievements and milestones in your sporting career?

At this point its more to give back, I still want to keep racing as long as my body will let me, but along the way to bring along younger paddlers and transfer some of my knowledge

Why did you choose to work with H2O Audio?

I have known Kristian for a long time and I love the products he creates, and with his back ground his products caters to endurance sports , can withstand the hours of training as well as conditions

How has H2O Audio enhanced your training and performance?

Love using the headphones when I am out training alone, keeps me entertained as well as safe because I can still hear ambient noise.

What is your favorite music or playlist to listen to during workouts, and what type of workout do you use it for?

Really depends on the mood, sometimes is just some mix of random music my kids make for me, or a podcast

How do H2O Audio waterproof headphones help you stay motivated during tough training sessions or competitions?

Definitely being able to listen to music or stream podcast helps take my mind off things like how many more miles or hours I still have to go, or focus what I am listening to vs pain or fatigue

What advice do you have for aspiring athletes?

Aim high, but set some achievable goals in-between your ultimate prize.
