Callum Crozier

Team Rider / Future Instructor
We’re super delighted to have Callum on our team. Coached by master chief Matty and the rest of the crew Callum is progressing quickly into kitesurfing.

When he’s not playing rugby or at school you’ll find him at the beach helping out and shredding with the rest of the team.

Callums politeness and his need to help others makes hm a perfect instructor candidate for the near future.

Tom Bartlett

SUP Instructor / Beach Boy
For sure a bit of an action man ‘wanna be’ on the water – Tom has a full list of skills when it come to watersports.

After graduating from uni with a degree in outdoor pursuits Tom has a detailed understanding of what’s required. His cheeky personality always brings a laugh to the scene whilst keeping a professional approach to his SUP classes and tours.

A true asset to the ‘Z’ team.

Qualification:  ISA Surf/SUP Instructor

Rainy Wright

IKO Kitesurf Instructor
‘Girls just wanna have fun’ – we think this sums up Rainy quite nicely.

Where there’s wind and water Rainy will be out there battling the elements. When there’s no wind Rainy will most certainly find another sport to connect with the elements.  Simply she’s always seeking a thrill and living it to the max.

Rainy has an incredible calming nature which shines in her teaching skills which is just what you need when first learning to kitesurf.

Qualification:  IKO Instructor L1
