Here at the PWA we?re all for plugging our rookie members hoping to make their name on the World Tour. Today we introduce you to Michael ?Polan? Polanowski (Starboard).

Hailing from Poland, Polanowski is a PWA hopeful competing in the slalom discipline. 2010 marked his first season competing on the PWA, where he competed in both the Pegasus Airlines World Cup in Turkey, and the Colgate World Cup in Germany.

It?s never going to be easy for a rookie to break into the ranks of the PWA?s seasoned pro?s, but Polanowski proved he?s certainly capable of mixing it up with the big boys after scoring a losers final in Sylt. Sure, he?s not rubbing shoulders with Albeau at the top yet, but there?s still plenty of time for this rookie to hone his skills.
