The Team

Fiona

Let me introduce myself, I am Fiona, a keen skier,  paddler and general outdoor enthusiast. I spent many seasons working on the slopes, as far afield as New Zealand. On my days off from working in our busy store, I can be found paddling the coastlines around the UK or canoeing the Yorkshire rivers, I sometimes like to fish afloat too.

Rod

Rod (Dad), has been paddling since the early eighties. He used to spend much of his time designing and building many different types of craft. These days you are more likely to find him in our store assembling paddles, servicing skis or assisting with ski boot fitting. Rod has tremendous knowledge, experience and enthusiasm in all of our specialist services and products, be it paddle sport, ski related our general outdoors. Rod has boundless energy and still keeps us all on our toes.

We have many team members associated with 1st Wet & Wild too, let me take a moment to introduce you to a few of these.
