Rider Profile: Rocky Chatwell

ACE Chatwell represents the WKC mission in its entirety. At 14 he began windsurfing around Wildcat (No harness and wore jeans for jellyfish protection). Howizard gave him some used kite gear and here we are 3 years later and Rocky is now Ranked 9th in the world. He rides harder, longer, and is more determined than any other rider. On top of that he's the nicest kid you could hope to meet, yes Sir's & yes Maam's. He has all the makings of a champion, and will soon be the best in the world.
