Two-time Big Wave World Tour Champion, two Mavericks titles, 5 other WSL Tour titles, numerous WSL XXL awards, and many firsts as a surf adventurer. With a passion for exploring off-the-grid big wave breaks in remote corners of the globe. Twiggy’s exploits continue to confound conventional norms.

More than just a big wave rider. Twiggy is a committed environmentalist and humanitarian. He is not one to go about flaunting it. Much of his work is under the radar. He has served as an inspiration to a generation of surfers and street kids in Africa with his support of numerous local charities.
