He has always owned Fibreflex skateboards since he began skateboarding in London in 1977.

Recently he had photographs published in the San Francisco Chronicle and Catalina Islander Magazine, as well as clips on TV news. He also features on the "This Is Not Skateboarding" film.
Asked in 2002 where he currently lives, he said: "I live in UA at the moment. That's United Airlines" As Paul spends so much time travelling between Europe, America and Australia it's easy to see there is much truth in this!
His slalom racing experience on snow has translated well to skateboard slalom racing. His competitive nature and racing experience has resulted in him being on of the fastest slalom racers in the world today. He loves to skate whenever there is no snow on the ground! Currently he is the overall winner of the FCR 2002 World Open Slalom Skateboard Racing Series, as well as World Champion in Open slalom and the Combined event.
