Spending his teens competing and skiing around the UK dry slope scene, he progressed up to international level when he was 17, competing at the European Freeski Open in Laax, Switzerland.

He reached the finals in the NZ Freeski Open and was selected for the British Halfpipe team and his debut World Championships in 2013. He is the first British man to land a Double Cork 1260 in a halfpipe. Speight narrowly missed out on the 2014 Winter Olympics.
