A little update from Perth. It’s been super hot the last days. I reckon it’s been about 40°C everyday. That means that seabreeze kicks in everyday as well. So I could go kiting at Pelican Point the last days which is a super nice spot in the middle of the city. When you ride a bit further out on the river you can have a perfect view on the Perthian skyline. Just amazing. We also could use the last days to shoot a bit for the Kitelife Magazine. Just super sweet colours here. Plus the fact that there aren’t many people kiting on the river makes it just perfect. Training, if you wanna call it like this, has been going on really well. I could land some new tricks like a Late Mobe and S-Bend 3. The swell has also picked up a lot. Today was about shoulder to head high. For me as a surf-idiot really scary. But good to see the guys ripping it really hard. Next week there’s gonna be Xavier Rudd, The Cat Empire and The Beautiful Girls in town. I am really looking forward to seeing these bands again. So far.. Now I have to get back to my English essays I have to write for uni. 2500 is way to much when there’s 40°C outside. Read more ...

Got the shipment of UPS today! Finally!!! Looking forward to get on the water soon … only 3 exams and 3 weeks left until I’ll be going to THAILAND for the PKRA and the KTA! After that I’ll do a SICK trip … stay tuned. More informations coming soon.

The last month it has been snowing nearly every day. I can´t remember that I ever saw this much before up here in the falt land. We´ve been snowkiting a lot and also build some kickers and rails when there wasn´t enough wind. In the next weeks my final exames are waiting for me… can´t wait to ride some fluid water again!

It’s about time, that I tell u a bit what’s been happening here in Down Under. The last weeks have been a blast. The weather has been fantastic and there has been wind almost every day. Last weekend we went on a road trip down south to my favourite surf spot Denmark. Although travelling for more than six hours it is really worth the effort. The little country town with the award winning pie shop has to be loved. Whoever has been reading my blog over the years has read about that town before. Besides travelling I’ve been going down to Woodies a lot. Alex Pastor, Cesar Portas and Bruna Kajiya are also in Perth at the moment so it is a lot of fun riding with them. Little by little I am getting back to my last year’s shape. I could really feel that i had not been kiting for five month. So there is still a lot to catch up with. That is the state of affairs so far. I am going for a surf now at Trigg’s Point. Read more ...

Folks, this place ROCKS

Yeah, first day at the Nyali International Beach Hotel greeted me with no wind, though, I have to admit, this place is soooooo beautiful and pretty drained of my 35 hours travel from Australia anyway, I actually didn’t mind a little time to chill!  … and chilling out, relaxing, unwinding here is easy, the hotel is absolutely stunning: 2 pools, an insanely white, huge sand beach, great food, at the Aqua Beach Bar there’s THE most comfortable ‘chill out’ beds with cosy cushions, beathtaking palmtrees, huge frangipani trees… monkeys in the garden, camels on the beach -  JOY, too cool, I  l o v e   this place Read more ...
