After lots of years of practice and travelling I have now managed to reach the top of the world Rankings. They just updated them this week and I think that I am the first Australian to make it to the top on wprs. Unfortunately the Europeans start this weekend and I know after a big comp like that one they will update again and I will slip backwards due to not being there.. Oh well I will live up the glory while it last.. I would just like to thank Moyes for all of their support and supplying me with the best glider, RedBull for giving me the energy to fly all around the world and blueyes for suppyling me with the best sunglasses to increase my thermaling ability. Also a Huge thanks to my parents for all their support and willingness to help me achieve my goals in life. Oh and of course all the members of the Canungra Club who have helped trained me up and support me over my flying career..
