00:04 For surfing, we're not really on the map.
00:08 I'm one of the first professional
00:10 surfers in Scotland.
00:12 And when you mentioned that you're from there, they're
00:16 just like, is there waves in Scotland?
00:19 How did you become a pro surfer?
00:20 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:50 Accessibility-wise, going surfing in Scotland can be
00:53 really difficult for some folk.
00:54 But Edinburgh's the capital city of Scotland.
00:57 You've got the wave pool right at your doorstep.
01:00 So it'll be a great opportunity for loads of
01:03 folk to get into it.
01:05 For us, it's going to be an amazing training ground.
01:08 And all the kids that are coming up as well, we're going
01:12 to be able to coach them in Lost Shore.
01:14 And yeah, it'll be a great training ground.
01:19 Yeah, it'll be amazing.
01:21 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:43 It's like a skate park.
01:44 You know, a skate park, you can practice over and over and
01:47 over again.
01:48 And in surfing, you don't really have that unless you've
01:53 got a wave garden or a pool like this.
01:58 It's really going to be like--
01:59 yeah, if I'd put it this way, if I'd had it when I was
02:02 growing up, I would have been a lot better
02:04 surfer than I am now.
02:07 It'll be an amazing thing.
02:08 Hopefully, we'll end up making it into the GB squad and going
02:11 to the Olympics or something like that with a training
02:14 ground like this.
02:15 I don't see why not.
02:18 Yeah, it's an exciting thing.
02:20 And I think a lot more people will be getting into surfing
02:24 after this.
