Nicolas was the World Trick Champion in 2001, 2005 and 2007, he was also a Silver medallist in 1995, 1997, 1999 & 2011. He has achieved 5 World Trick Records between 1999 and 2005, being 11,890 points in 1999, 11,920 points in 2000, 12,120 points in 2001, 12,320 points in 2003 and 12,400 points in 2005. It takes dedication to continued improvement, and a real love of the sport to achieve that many World Records, over that period of time. Nicolas was the World Games Champion in 1997, World Cup Overall Trick Champion in 2005, 2006 and 2007. He was the US Masters Champion in 1996, 1997, 1999, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007, a total of 9 times! All this, together with being the Moomba Masters Champion in 1995, 2000, 2002 and 2003, and being a coach for many World Class Trick Skiers, we truly believe that this is an athlete who truly owned his place at the IWWH IHOF. Through his outstanding performance during his career, Nicolas has been an inspiration for many younger skiers to follow the discipline of trick water skiing and he continues to dedicate a large portion of his retirement time coaching others.
