Professional Kite Surfer from Melbourne, Australia
About Woodley
From Melbourne beaches to the world stage - a journey of passion, dedication, and relentless pursuit of excellence.
Early Beginnings
Growing up near the ocean in Melbourne, I developed a strong connection to the water and wind early on. I discovered kitesurfing at 12 and quickly found a natural affinity for the sport, initially focusing on freestyle with countless hours dedicated to practice and improvement.
Professional Transition
In 2018, I transitioned to kitesurfing on a surfboard, introduced by the father of four-time World Champion James Carew. Since then, kitesurfing has become my primary passion - I've worked at a local kite shop, trained rigorously, and competed extensively.
World Tour Success
At 20, I turned professional, competing in the 2024 GKA World Tour and finishing 11th overall across events in Cape Verde, Germany, Morocco, and Brazil. This achievement in my debut season has driven me to continue competing internationally with renewed focus and commitment.

Support My Journey
Help me achieve my dream of competing full-time on the world tour and inspiring the next generation of kite surfers.
My ultimate goal is to turn kitesurfing into a full-time professional career—traveling the world, competing, winning, and inspiring others through the sport I love.
Despite finishing 11th in the world while juggling work and training around limited resources, I believe my potential surpasses many of the top athletes with the right support.
- Travel expenses (flights, car rentals, boardbag fees)
- Competition fees and GKA membership
- Accommodation during events
- Equipment and maintenance
- Training time without financial stress
Next Season Goals
The season starts in Cape Verde, where I have valuable local connections and the opportunity to live and train in Portugal beforehand.
