Hi, I'm Orla, I’m 18 years old and currently live in Scotland, UK.

My wakeboarding journey started at Foxlake Adventures when I was 8 years old. I started to take it seriously in 2017 when I won my first National Championship aged 10. I joined Team GB in 2022 when I also became WWA World Champion.

Last year, I suffered a setback with a back injury, but I’m now back on my board, training harder than ever and aiming for the stars. In July this year, I became IWWF UK National Champion.

I have been training hard over the winter months in Spain and Turkey. After competing in a number of competitions over the spring and summer months, I have now got my sights on the World Championships in Paris in September.

As you can imagine, this costs a significant amount, most of which I have to self-fund. I am actively looking for corporate sponsorship to cover some of the costs, but I would therefore be eternally grateful for any support you can lend to help me reach my Crowdfunding target of £2,300.

I have already secured funding for the entry fee and some practice slots at the cable, however, I am still looking for financial support to cover travel, accomodation and trainig costs.

Thanks in advance for any support you can offer me. I post regular updates on my Instagram page @orlawinn where you will see regular updates on my progress.
