taking up skateboarding at the age of 11. Since
14 he has dominated the snowboard youth category
in the UK. Angus competes in various

disciplines which he has really excelled at are
the Half Pipe and Rails which have now become his

really taken off. Last season he joined the
British development team with the aim to one day
compete in the 2010 Winter Olympics.
