(1:50:15)Finishing high school, Andy chose to race in the Laser class sailboats and made his big breakthrough in 2012, when he came 3rd at the World Laser Championships. Leading into the Rio Olympics, Maloney was in a tight head-to-head battle with Sam Meech, both competing for the one spot to represent New Zealand. Three events were to decide who was going to secure their ticket to the 2016 games and unfortunately for Maloney, one day of bad decisions on the water cost him his chance.

Andy was completely devastated after spending eight years of his life fully committed to achieving his ultimate goal. Unsure what to do next, Andy needed a new challenge to work towards and he decided to set his targets on being a part of America’s Cup Sailing team Emirates Team New Zealand. Willing to do anything to get his chance, Andy quickly impressed, with his sailing knowledge, relentless work ethic and being a handy cyclist. Fast-forward a year of hard graft and adding 15kgs of muscle, Maloney earned his way onto the ETNZ boat and found himself as one of the Cyclors. This unique design feature helped New Zealand lift one of sports oldest trophies and brought it home to share with the rest of New Zealand.

But this time is a little different, a new boat, now in the Finn Class, a new perspective and the competitor is his Best Man from his wedding Josh Junior. This is an unique relationship, as they have decided to share everything, from boat set ups, to race tactics and to race reviews. With the goal that whoever gets the opportunity to go to Tokyo will have the best chance of winning the Gold Medal for New Zealand.
