NOMADO x BOOTH TRAINING

Nomado’s training group is coached by Michael “Boothy” Booth to become the best SUP and surf ski paddler you can be.

I saw a post on Instagram from Michael that talked about his coaching program. It had a positive message and an energetic vibe which I was diggin’. So, I headed over to BOOTH Training to check it out. My initial reaction was that he was genuinely interested in helping people, not just elite athletes, to reach their personal goals.

Why do we want the best for you?

For over 20 years, Nomado has been working with world champion paddling coaches, olympians, and elite athletes because we understand the absolute importance of training effectively and efficiently to achieve your goals by avoiding rookie mistakes, injuries, and bad habits. 

As soon as I learned how to ride a bike, I wanted to take it to the next level. So, I rode that bike into the forest before mountain biking existed and played until the wheels literally rolled off! The years passed and I found myself absorbing stories of historic expeditions, extreme biking and skiing...extreme sports in general. Again, I was pushing limits with tricks before hot dog skiing was even a thing. They were quite possibly my most stupid and death-defying stunts but I loved being at the brink of danger. Who knew that this would lead to my service with the Swedish Special Forces? But after such a serious part of my life, I continued to play. This is what it's all about - playing and not taking yourself too seriously. You can work hard and play hard. This is what I enjoy about watersports. Every day and hour-to-hour, the water and wind create a different adventure. In order to handle every condition, you need skills that will help to enjoy the activity. I built boards for windsurfing to handle different conditions and years later I introduced surf skis to Sweden because I wanted a watercraft that could go faster in any condition as long as you had the skills to handle it. For this reason, I chose to work with the best and I want this tradition of best-in-class to continue.
