EOL Board of Directors

Jacopo Lavezzi 🇮🇹

Jacopo Lavezzi AKA pj it’s an action sport enthusiast from Italy. He grew up as a kiteboarding instructor and pro rider traveling across the world on a search for wind and waves. After this he has continued to build his background through all kind of action sport: wakeboard, snowboarding, skateboarding and surfing till he found the only board he could use on his hometown hills: a onewheel.

Since then, alongside Martim Fogaça, co-founder of Float Italia, they did an awesome job growing the community around Europe and making those Gattinara hills the capital of European onewheeling.

Thanks to his pioneer vision, Pj is constantly pushing the limit of this sport surprising the community year after year with some of the coolest events in Europe and even the world!

Daniel Turner 🇵🇹

Rider representative (from previous season European Onewheel League Finals)

Dan started out on a Pint X in the summer of 2023, and quickly became a dedicated member of Onewheel Algarve. He raced for the first time at Onewheel Algarve in 2024 and has since continued to push his riding and technical skills to new levels. A passionate VESC builder, Dan is known for designing his own batteries—custom fly packs—and optimising DIY board setups to make diagnosing and repairing parts at events fast, streamlined, and efficient.

He has flown with his boards all over the world, including Australia and the USA. He regularly takes his dog Jaina out for rides along the Falésia cliffs. Dan has competed internationally as well, representing Europe at FloatLife Fest in the USA.

Jessica Jones 🇬🇧

Rider representative (from previous season European Onewheel League Finals).

Jess (@jessica.briony) started Onewheeling in February 2022 during a two-month road trip along the Pacific Northwest coast of the USA. After returning to the UK, she bought her first XR and became one of the coordinators of the Onewheel Scotland group.

Splitting her time between Scotland and Portugal, Jess loves shredding the trails of Glentress with the Onewheel Scotland crew and riding the Falésia cliffs with Dan and his dog Jaina. She now builds her own DIY boards—including batteries—with supervision from Dan. Jess began racing in 2023 and earned her first podium, a first-place finish, in the 2025 season, going on to become the season and finals champion. She is also a proud member of the UK’s SheSwerves team.
