NORTH STORM® AMBASSADORS LARA HINDMARSH AND DYLAN BOAG OF WOEBEGONE FREEDIVE

Most importantly they organise and facilitate beach clean-up days.

Clean-up days are held in the Jervis Bay area and always bring good vibes to the local community.

Sharing the same passions, Lara and Dylan have braved the elements and intense pressures of the ocean. 

Two peas in a pod, they both enjoy extending their knowledge of the sea to all. 

Teaching people how to free-dive, snorkel and explore seal colonies.

In addition they swim with wobbegong and grey nurse sharks 

Along with dolphins, migrating whales, local marine life, investigate sea caves, beaches and more!

Together they are the awesome duo at Woebegone Freedive! 

We are so stoked and honoured to have them on our team at North Storm®!

WHO IS YOUR IDOL, HERO? WHO INSPIRES YOU THE MOST?

Lara: My idol is Madison Stewart aka Shark Girl for helping to end the shark fishing trade by giving fishermen an alternative income and future!

Dylan: Arnie (Arnold Schwarzenegger) inspires me the most because of his drive and determination.

IF YOU COULD TRAVEL ANYWHERE IN AUSTRALIA WHERE WOULD YOU GO? AND WHY?

Lara: If I could travel anywhere in Australia my first choice would be Western Australia! For the amazing blue water, red dirt and incredible marine life.

Dylan: If I could travel anywhere in Australia I would go check out the desert because I’ve never been there. In addition, for the landscape, solitude and contrast to where we live.
