The beginnings

He has been sailing since the age of 8. Encouraged by his parents, he began his adventure in the Optimist class at the UKS Navigo Sopot club under the guidance of coach Nina Olszewska-Szymczyk.

Career

After three years of sailing the Optimist, and since Navigo is renowned for its catamarans, he transitioned to the Hobie Cat 16 (HC16) class. Next, he stepped onto the 29er, which prepared him for the Olympic 49er class, where he currently competes as a member of the Polish National Team.
