Fanatic Waterman Series – Bobo Gallagher

Bobo Gallagher is a regular in the pages of the magazine. Here's a superb profile of the young rider from Fanatic

At 11 years of age, Maui’s Bobo Gallagher is one of the youngest Watermen on the Island, with a strength and focus far ahead of his age. Bobo is already an accomplished SUP racer, having done countless downwinders off the coast of Maui, he is a top Wing Foiler and SUP Foiler and recently became the first person (while he was still 11yrs old) to cross the dangerous Alenuihaha Channel in Hawaii. He is also a keen Surfer and Kitesurfer, an “Allround Waterman”. Bobo’s goals are to participate in Foiling, SUP Racing and SUP Surfing competitions and he is training every day for it (whilst still attending school obviously!). Rumours are Bobo could be Maui’s next famous Waterman, stay tuned!
