BEN PROFFITT
Some say he once beat Bjorn Dunkerbeck in a left handed arm wrestle and he is the only man in England to buy a DFS sofa when there was not a sale on! Some say that Ben can hypnotise sheep and he knows two facts about ducks, both of which are wrong. Some say he was the one who pulled Excalibur from the stone and that he is the rightful King of England and that if he could be bothered he could swim the Atlantic…underwater. We all know him fondly as Ben Proffitt, one of the UK’s most talented wave sailors and PWA commentator extraordinaire. Never stuck for a word to say, Ben is one of those rare people with the confidence to go on camera and deliver his obvious passion for windsurfing seemingly on auto pilot. While many know him these days for those uncanny skills in the commentary box and his infamous ‘training diaries’ don’t forget Ben is a British champion, talented PWA competitor and of course the PWA Poland slalom indoor champion. Always up for the craic and ever supportive of events at every level, Ben is undoubtedly of the UK’s most valuable and prized windsurfing assets.
