With a R250,000 cash prize up for grabs, this platform sets out to identify the country\u2019s top spinner.<\/p>\n
Jaydon Essack is just 18-years-old and said this week that he started spinning from a young age after seeing his brother involved in the sport.<\/p>\n
\u201cI started driving when I was about nine-years-old and started spinning at the age of 12,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Despite limited resources and very little opportunity to spin in a controlled, supervised environment, Jaydon said that he is addicted to the sport and wanted to enter the competition as soon as he saw it advertised on Facebook and e.TV.<\/p>\n
\u201cI attended two auditions and never wanted to give up – although I was up against some of the best spinners who are well known all over the country. It was also a learning experience and I left with better knowledge of the sport. I will keep on practising until next year when the new season of the competition is open to entries\u201d.<\/p>\n
