When he is in town I train him for sports performance and sports medicine needs. He works incredibly hard and is such a blast to be with. See a few of our top secret training moves in our programming.

Phil Rajzman Adventures

What has Phil been up to lately?  In November and December of 2017, Phil competed and finished 2nd in the Open World Longboard Championship in Taiwan.  
 
In the new year, he surfed the infamous "Jaws" on his 9' Hobie designed long board. Watch his videos on his social media and then pick your jaw up off the floor- simply beautiful and amazing! 
 
Most recently, Phil competed in the 2018 ISA World Longboard Surfing Championship in Wanning, China. 
 
Phil is quite the globe-trotter and continues tackling big waves and big competitions.  We are so proud of him! 
 
You can follow his adventure on his Facebook and Instagram sites.
