Rod is the current IJA World Jousting Champion and IJA World Skill at Arms Champion.

Rod has been competing in skill at arms and jousting for the past ten years, winning almost everything that he has entered.

Rod has been involved in shows and competed in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, USA, Europe and Vanuatu, with a very high success rate in all countries.

Rod is definitely the one to look out for at any competition, he is probably one of the toughest competitors in the world today.

Rod thrives on crowd interaction, so if you want him and Australia to win, make sure he can hear you loud and clear.

Michelle has been riding most of her life and involved with Jousting for the past 10 years, originally helping out her husband Rod Walker, before giving it a go herself.

Jousting for the last 5 years, Michelle has ridden in many shows with Full Tilt and competed in skill at arms and jousting competitions in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, USA, Europe and Vanuatu.

Michelle will be one of only two female competitors to joust in the Full Tilt Jousting events, but don’t be fooled, she can hit just as hard as the men.

So ladies and gents we want to hear lots of support for Michelle and Australia.
