About me






When I was eight my parents had one friend who was windsurfing. He showed us another windsurfer who started teaching my parents windsurfing. The same summer me and my family went to the Garda lake in Italy. There my parents went to a windsurfing school and took me too. After one week, we went back home, but in the middle of the way we stopped to buy equipment for me. From that time I am windsurfing every minute I can, I am participating in competitions and I am going abroad for training.




For last  years I have concentrated on Formula Windsurfing mainly and Slalom when conditions allow it. That's because of the place I live. In Lithuania I live in the middle of the country and we don't have a lot of wind very often. Usually we have wind from 3-8m/s,- just perfect for FW. In my town, Kaunas,  90% of Lithuania's FW racers live, so it's very good place to train. Everyday when it's windy you can be sure that you will meet at least 5 guys on the water, who you can train with. I am also participating and training Slalom. In summer I travel a lot to participate in international competitions and in winter I am icesurfing.
I am also surfing, hiking, skying, snowboarding, swimming (in the pool) and cycling.

I started windsurfing when I was 13-year-old. My dad was the one who had drawn me in this wonderful sport. Actually, that was the moment when my life turned upside-down and I started my windsurfing career at Kaunas Windsurfing club "Bangputys".  First of all, I was windsurfing in raceboard class and later I went on RS:X, FW and Slalom disciplines. Now, I'm looking forward for colossal goals and I hope to achieve them in nearest future.
