<span class="s1">Hello everybody</span></div>

<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">2015 has just started and the first contest of the year has already happened. Not in Freestyle this time but in Waves. End of last year I decided it was time for me to join a new discipline and thanks to my sponsors I will be able to compete on both the Freestyle and Wave tour next year, making me attend more contests and see new places! </span></div>

<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">Over the past 2 months I have spent a great time in Western-Australia training for both disciplines together with some of the best wave sailors in the world. Last weekend I had my first wave contest of the year and my first ever Lancelin Ocean classic. After just arriving 3 days before in Australia I didn’t have any practice in waves before the contest started on Thursday. Lucky for me the Elite men were last so I could get a bit of practice before the heats would start. Wind was great and waves were a perfect size for Lancelin, as well as creating a really fun steep part at the shallow inside section.</span></div>

<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">Entering the Elite men meant there weren’t going to be any easy heats and for the first heat I was straight away against Scott McKercher to make it into the top 4. I had a good heat but knew I could have done better so hearing I passed this heat and not being kicked out straight away got me fully motivated for the next heat against Ben Severne. With 3 waves and 3 jumps to count in a 10 min heat there was not much time for mistakes. I got a perfect rythm that heat and sailed better than I ever sailed before in a wave contest combining good top turns with fast takas and backside 360 to get into the final against Jaeger Stone.</span></div>

<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">During this last heat I couldn’t really get into the same rythm anymore and obviously lost against Jaeger who sailed just at another level than everyone landing a backloop even higher than the Helicopter that was flying above the contest area for pictures. For me, I already won my contest by getting to the final and securing a 2nd place in my first international wave contest of the year. It all ended with a great party in the Pub on Saturday and a nice little BBQ on Sunday before leaving to search more wind and waves across the west-coast.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Sylt is the biggest event of the year with 3 disciplines being sailed over 10 days, biggest crowed and the best setup to always make it a good time. On day one we usually only have the registration but as the organization was keen on getting a result in the waves an exception was made and at 2 p.m. the competition started. As I initially didn’t get a place into the trails I was pretty surprised when I found out I was in heat 3 just noticing it about 20min. before they started. With wind being pretty light and onshore I was lucky enough to be able to borrow a 87 litre board from Danny Bruch to sail my heat. </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 11px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">As I went on the water jus about 15 min before my heat I didn’t even have the chance to warm up on the waves and just sailed out to get a bit used to how the board felt in the turns on the outside swell. With 12 min. heats and just 2 waves to count wave selection was really important. I started perfectly with a nice wave with 2 front side hits and a 3rd backside turn scoring me a 5,5 on my opening ride which gave me some comfort to find a 2nd backup score. As I got outside again I almost needed another 5 to 6 min. to find my backup score and managed to get a pretty big wave and make one big frontside hit on it to score a 5 point wave and get my heat total up to 10,5 to make me win my trial heat. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: xx-small;">The one that would have made the difference..</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 11px; min-height: 13px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 11px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">In the main event I was straight up against the worldchampion from 2013 Marcilio Brown, I knew I had to step it up if I wanted to have a chance so after my first waveride (which scored 4.83) I decided I needed a big backside 360 or something else special to make the difference. With just about 4 min. to go I got a pretty decent wave to go for a big backside 360. I went for it and got so close I still can’t believe I didn’t make that one but the white water just pushed me from the board. In the end I just lost by something like 1,3 points and would definitely have won if I landed my backside 360, what an intro into waves would that have been taking down the worldchampion on my first contest of wave! Looking forward to do more next year!</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">After a lot of days without wind we finally got action again on the 9th day, offshore and light but enough to do a single elimination. I started with a pretty good first heat against Yentel Caers who was sailing really good and would have won against quite some of the other guys or even me if I didn’t have a good heat. After that I wasn’t sailing to good anymore, I was busier with the rankings in my mind than actually sailing a good heat. I got lucky against Bosson and just made it through but couldn’t make it to the semi’s as Tonky just scored a little bit better than me which left me with a shared 5th place in the single. Considering how I sailed I’m super happy with this but I know I could have done better if I had my mind more into it. In the end it was just enough to keep 5th on the overall and keep my position in the top 5 for 2 years in a row!! At least one of my goals made for this years, let’s make getting a podium place on a event next year happen a few times to catch up for this year!!</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">So the second stop of the PWA just ended and my trip to the Canaries also ended. This year the weather and the wind have been pretty strange with even a few times rain in the morning (never happens in summer normally) and not even one day on 4.0 and even more sailing on 4.8 than on 4.4 .</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">During the contest the wind was pretty good considering the previous days where the slalom guys were still almost on their biggest gear. In the single I started off with a great heat against Rafael de Windt but struggled hard in round 3 against Adrian Bosson who was sailing amazing! I didn’t have my best heat and with the level being so close at the top now a mistake makes you lose straight away. So early exit in the single and one hell of a double lined up as I wasn’t the only one who made a mistake..</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">In the double I had to get past Tonky Frans to get into the top 10 so one heat could decide a lot for the event and also the overall this year. After winning my heat against Yarden Meir and watching Tonky’s heat against Youp Smith (who was also having an early exit losing in round 2) I knew I had to sail a really solid heat against Tonky to win and hope he didn’t sail like his previous heat.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 11px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">So green flag up and sail my best heat of the event. The wind was a bit tricky with moments and it was quite hard to find a good ramp for air moves. I had a really solid heat landing one of my best paskos in my heat after just 2 minutes and a perfect spock culo on the way in together with 3 pretty high scoring moves. I didn’t see much what Tonky did and wasn’t really sure it was enough to pass, I wasn’t able to really fully show what I was able to do, but in the end it was enough to get into the top 10 and get the chance to get even further than that.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">On the last day only the top 12 was left of the contest and I probably had one of the ”easiest” heats of this round against Balz Muller. So pretty confident I went on the water but actually had one of my worst heats against Balz who had some really solid moves. My experience got me through on this one as in the last 30 seconds I still needed to land one move on the way out to fill my score sheets, in the last 20 seconds I managed to land my Airfunnel (after crashing it 3 times) and got through to the top 8, to meet a second Severne teamrider Amado Vrieswijk. </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Well I had to do a lot better to win from him and to be honest I just didn’t, I couldn’t get my heats together this day and ended the event with a heat that didn’t satisfy me but with a result that is good enough to claim back my top 5 position on the overall ranking! So not my best event on Fuerteventura this year but lucky for me I sailed my best heat in the double when it really counted.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">A few days ago the second EFPT stop of the year ended at Lanzarote. Being one of my favorite locations to travel to I was looking forward to a great event with a good chance for wind.. Well at least that’s normally the case on the canaries in summer anyway, but sadly enough not during the event.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">We got close a few times but as it turned out the wind just took a 4 day break during the event, with a good day of sailing a day before and after the event… How unlucky can we be right? So during all the waiting at the beach for wind, Anxton Oteagui knew the forecast wasn’t looking to good and decided to run a tow-in contest with 2000 euro price money for the top 10.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">With one day the qualification round and the next day the final the public could see a bit of windsurfing rather than nothing. My qualification run went quite allright and managed to get 3rd to go into the final, which feels pretty good as I crashed every single move in Podersdorf last time I did tow-in..</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">So the final was up and I was in 7th place on the starting list. Looking to the scores of the qualifying heats I knew my best chance would be the double funnel. I got around quite good the first one but the second rotation wasn’t really perfect as the noise caught the water to early, luckily I managed to keep standing on the board and get an allright first score.. After that we had 2 more attempts, after crashing my skopu attempt and seeing everyone else stomp good moves I knew I had to do my best tow-in move ever if I wanted to get a good result. So said so done, I came flying out my double airfunnel and knew I would have a good score, not enough to win but just enough to get on to the podium for the first time ever in a tow-in contest. </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Conditions where amazing these 4 days and actually almost couldn’t have been better.. During the registration day the wind was to light to compete but everyone knew the forecast was amazing. It actually became a super relaxed first day like this where everyone could take the time to prepare all their gear without having to hurry to be in time for their first heat. Atmosphere was super relaxed and everyone was ready to compete!</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">I had a pretty good event with a 6th place, it always could have been better but also worse. I sailed pretty solid heats but just missed out on the top 4 in a single elimination 2 times.. I could have done it but the first time I lost quite unfair in my opinion against Tonky Frans as the judges made 3 mistakes on just 16 moves which was really frustrating, especially as I just lost with half point and this probably would have made the difference. Anyway that’s how it goes sometimes you win sometimes you lose. The second time I ruined it myself so fair job from the judges there I just simply should have sailed better! </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">My best heat was probably against Bjorn Saragossa in the first Double elimination. He really pushed me to the maximum as I saw him sail an amazing heat but luckily I won making me advance into the top 8 and probably scoring my best heat score so far of my career with around 55 points out of 60! It was also great to see him getting a 6th place in the second double elimination sailing some solid heats and helping me actually to jump over Youp Schmit in the ranking. Who was also sailing amazing in almost all his heats (just against Bjorn he sailed a little bit less good). </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Everyone was sailing on such a high level it was a must see event and for the people who saw the live stream out their, you know where I’m talking about right?!! The action was just insane!! Also the Severne team performed extremely well and both Amado Vrieswijk and Maaike Huvermann did exactly what I was hoping for, finishing 3rd and 2nd scoring the first podium places for Severne sails in the Freestyle disciplines on the PWA! The Youth world champions of last year showed they want more than just a Youth world title!!</span></div>

It’s a good start of the year and with a month of training together with Amado Vrieswijk on the canaries I’m sure we will both push each other to the next level!!</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">As I’m writing this I’m on my flight to Bonaire for the first PWA event of the year. I haven’t been updating my blog to much with travel story’s anymore but hey why not get started with it again! So during my last weekend at home the forecast was bad, super bad. I stayed home longer especially for the long weekend of my parents and could talk them in to repeat a trip we did 5 years ago during the same periode, a 4 day trip South of France in Leucate!!</span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The forecast was good and gues what, I wasn’t the only one who saw the forecast and decided to go. Pretty much the whole trip I sailed together with Yentel Cears who talked his parents into it as well after reading my update on facebook. We sailed 3 days on 3 different spots. The first day when we arrived late in the afternoon as we left in the morning we sailed at Porte la Nouvelle pretty much where the Defi wind had their course layed out. Lucky for me I just arrived when they where going to finish so straight on the water 4.4 weather and perfect flat water in perfect tempertiors! Balz Muller was also out there with his brother and Antoine Albert joined this session as well. Perfect first day ending with a nice pasta and a long sleep!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 11px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The next day was the best day out of the 3. Yentel showed me a spot inbetween Porte La nouvelle and La Franqui where all the speed sailors go. Flat water, strong wind and not to many people sailing! We almost sailed 5 hours that day and it was perfect to train double moves finally landing does first double burners, still some work to do but pretty stoked I could land some Airskopu’s both ways! Yentel was pushing at well and his airskopu’s where getting more and more consistent so its good to see another Belguim stepping it up, definatly one to watch in the future!</span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">After this day I was so broken, pushing for those double moves run after run took a lot of my energy and the next day it was just howling! So time to go to the lake of Leucate and rig the smallest freestyle sail I have 3.6! It’s the first time I use the 2014 one and its sick! I’m not a favorite of super strong winds but with this sail I feel pretty comfortable (especially as I won my first EFPT event on this size!). Balz was also on the water and how much fun is to watch this guy, he doesn’t know fear and lands some moves I couldn’t think are possible, he knows how to handle the strong wind and pushes freestyle in another way than anyone else! Can’t wait to see his next clip cause I’m sure it will be another sick one again.</span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">After 3 hours of sailing the wind dropped a bit and we decided to go back to the city have a nice pizza and pack everything for the next day. After a long day of driving home I could look back on a great weekend with my parents and my sister sailing everyday in some of the best conditions I ever had in Leucate! Lets hope now it doesn’t take another 3,5 years before I go back to this place defiantly going to make some more trips to there when I’m in Europe! Now wind is one in Bonaire so lets train even more and get ready for the worldcup in 2 weeks! Can’t wait! </span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">It’s been my 5th time in Podersdorf since I started competing in Austria. Somehow I really like the place but my results never seem to satisfy me or get close to my level. This year I got another 9th place (4th time already!!) which is the worst result I ever had in the EFPT since 6 years.. The wind was extremely light and it came down to the fact that I did a Culo in the first (and also only gust pretty much) instead of doing a Kono like Jacopo. I knew 9,5 minutes long I had to do just a Kono to advance but just didn’t get the chance to even go for it, quite frustrating.. Anyway that’s how it goes I guess and if they want to push for a result in wind where the biggest gust of the whole competition (besides the finals than there was actually just enough wind to do power moves) was just above 15knts luck gets quite a big factor compared to when its windy.. In the end I still had quite some good free sailing session when there was actually wind and managed to get second in the best trick contest so that made up a bit for the rest.. Tow-in didn’t go as planned as I somehow crashed every trick I went for so competitive wise we can better forget Podersdorf fast!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">After staying a few days longer in Austria to score some really good sessions on the lake and a little underpowered session under the bridge the forecast at home became the best I’ve seen in months so perfect time to get home! SW wind at its best surprising me the first day with 4.8 full to overpowered conditions at Brouwersdam as I was too convinced at home I wouldn’t need a 4.4 (wrong!!!) but in the end the sun was shining and the wind was blowing so happy days!! </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">So first 2 contest of the year are finished with not the best succes on the first one with the EFPT in Podersdorf (report will come online on Friday) but winning the first stop of the Belgium championships wave made a bit up for it. So let’s first start with the good competition and most recent action!!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 11px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">SW wind in the weekend means BK wave in May so already on the second weekend of the waiting period it was one of the best forecast we could ask for. 30-35 knots from the WSW which is perfect for Bredene! As soon as we arrived at the beach it was blowing full on that nobody bordered to take their medium sail but straight away started rigging there smallest kit for the competition. The aim was to do a double in one day and with the forecast looking good the chance for achieving the goal was really big! So with 2 jumps and 1 wave to count the competition started with almost all the big names on the list. Wout Burman impressed me the most during the warm-up with big backloops, stalled forwards and landing a perfect wave 360 in the competition area.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 11px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">I myself rigged my 3.3 and didn’t find a good rhythm always missing a bit off power to finish my wave rides because of the strong current but being fully stacked during my jumps with sometimes almost no control so pretty windy! After passing my first 2 heats with some luck I met Fabrice de Vos in de Quarter finals, the wind dropped a little bit and I decided to go on my 3.6 S-1 to have a bit more power on the wave. In the end it was the perfect choice as I sailed my best heat of the whole single elimination. Landing a perfect big back loop and push loop (which I never do normally but in competition you have to push yourself right?!) as jumps and landing a backside 360 in the crucial part was enough to go into the semi -finals.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 11px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">In the semi-finals I had 2 great wave rides one with a backside 360 and 1 with 2 turns and a taka but couldn’t really find my jumps as the wind dropped a bit. I still did a good back loop but only did a small forward as backup jump. In the end I lost as only 1 of the 2 waves counted and Thomas Buellens landed a OH back loop in the last seconds of the heat making him advance into the final winning it in the end in front of Olivier Pas who got a bit overpowered on is 4.2 as the wind suddenly picked up again. I was quite bumped with this loss and that was in my mind in the double when I had to sail the loser final. I didn’t sail good and lost again Nick De Wannemaeker but in my mind I knew I would fight back in the double.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 11px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">In the double the wind was perfect for 3.6 waves got better and with 2 jumps & 2 waverides counting I knew exactly what I had to do to win! In my first heat I was against Wout Burman who already sailed 5 heats in a row and was tiered by the time he had to sail against me. I found a perfect rhythm straight away from heat one managing to land good back loops and push loops for jumps and a backside 360 and some nice snaps for waverides to make me pass all my heats till the super final against Thomas Buellens again. In this heat I sailed the best I did pretty much of the whole competition. Landing a good back loop OH, perfect push loop and one of my biggest back loops together with my first taka of the whole double elimination (which was harder than in the single as the waves got a bit hollow) and a backside 360 to close the deal! I’m really stoked I could fight my way back to first place in the double elimination after 5 heats against some of the best sailors in Belgium. The level from everyone went up a lot compared to the year before so it’s a good assurance that my training in West-Oz in the waves paid off let’s see if I will do some more wave events in the future! Will see, now focus is fully on freestyle again for the PWA in Bonaire!!</span></div>

write a bit more earleir this blog again but didn’t really find the time..
Since Sylt there has been happening quite a lot! First of all it’s been pretty
windy at home allowing me to do some freestyle but also some wave sailing
again. During one of my sessions about a week before I was going to leave to
the EFPT I twisted my foot quite far and had to take some gas back again but
all was still good for free sailing as long as I put on my bandage to support
my foot. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">2 weeks ago I left
together with Rick Jendrusch to the last EFPT of the year at Brutal beach. Last
year I was able to win the EFE event in front of Tonky and wanted to do the
same this year. With only one day wind predictions out of the east and the
possibility to have a boat everything was going to come down to the second day
of competition. Forecast was good, the organisation was super but the wind
wasn’t really quite there, after a late start all hopes where already gone to
finish a double elimination wish meant no second chances and pressure was on
every heat. To get the European title, there had to happen a little miracle as
Steven had to finish outside of the top 5 and I had to win the event to get the
crown, as Russia was a 300 points event and France only 100.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
With light winds there
was the decision to run again in a best trick format where the best 3 moves
would count each way during 10 min. heats. It was all the time searching for
the good gusts and there was quite some luck involved. I had really good heats
considering the wind and managed to get through till the final but each time
with less and less power moves as the wind was really dropping quite fast. I
was happy I made it to the final already and now I wanted to go for the win
again. The only thing I was missing in those 10 min. was wind, while I was
always able to make up to 8 moves during the previous heats I only managed to
land 4 moves in the final and attempted 6. Steven got the best gust at the
other side of the area making an airfunnel funnel and culo in one run which
obviously made me lose the heat as I couldn’t even do anything to put on a
fight as I was just standing still... But we know we had only that day the boat
so we got a result but how much it presents is another question. I don’t say
the result would have been any different but it would have been nice for
everyone incl. Steven to show what we really could do instead of doing e-sliders
and flakas to advance into the next round.</div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">In the end I got
second in the single and also was sure of my second place on the overall behind
Steven! I’m really stoked with that and it just left me relaxing through the
weekend as I knew I would be second overall and at least top 3 during the
event. In the end there didn’t come enough wind anymore which left us with a
lot of Tow in action where I didn’t compete in because of my foot and left me
waiting for the price giving on Sunday! I’m very happy with my second place
overall but can’t wait for next year to go one place higher!</span></div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Since I was in France
I missed the second competition of the Belgium Championships of Wave and
couldn’t defend my title where I was quite bumped with, as it would have been
nice to get this tittle for a change! But luckily I got back home in time after
a whole night of driving to catch one of the best storms of the year. With
pretty nice waves for Belgium and weather for 3.3 and 3.6! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

About a week ago the
last PWA of the year ended in Sylt in some of the coldest conditions I ever
sailed competition in. Sylt is the biggest and longest event of the year taking
in total 10 days of competition and 4 disciplines makes it always a bit harder
to know when you exactly will have to sail. The first days the Slalom was
running and the Freestylers where on standby in case it would get wind enough.
Lucky for us the main concern during those first days was slalom making us be
released at 3 or 4 in the evening.</div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Together with
Starboard and Severne teammate Amado Vrieswijk we packed the car to go sailing
in the south at a spot, which should be one of the best on Sylt, and maybe even
in Germany the owner of surf school Sudkamp told us. When we got to the spot we
weren’t disappointed while the slalom sailors where on their biggest gear
racing we had the best session we could imagine. 5.2 weather fully powered up
on the flattest water you could imagine and nobody else around! It was perfect
to do that little bit of extra training just before the contest. The day after
we did exactly the same and could even sail on our 4.8 and sailed till it was
dark before going back to the event side. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Thursday and Friday were
the days the Freestyle finally got started. With still easterly winds the
competition was sailed far outside which made it harder to choose the right
sail but luckily for me I was in one of the last heats and could see where the
rest of the guys where sailing on. I took out my Freek 4.8 and Flare 91 as most
guys where on 4.5 and 4.8. The combination was perfect being sometimes a little
bit overpowered in the gust but most of the time nicely powered up during the
whole heat. My first heat I was against Max Mattisek from Austria who improved
a lot the last year and is always sailing good heats. I had a perfect heat with
moves like Pasko, kabichuchi , burner and so on. After that I was against Phil
Soltysiak where I sailed another good heat against with maybe my sickest
kabichuchi of the event, which helped me to win the heat and make it in the top
8.</div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><o:p> </o:p></span>The next heat was
against Golitto Estredo, I knew I had to step it up a little bit if I wanted to
win this one and took a little bit more risk, trying to go higher on everything
and put my best heat together. The first 3 minuts of the heat I was sailing the
worst I sailed from the whole elimination but I could still produce a really
good heat the last 4 minutes. I knew it was going to be close and I needed one
more big move with 15 sec. on my watch I was hoping for a good gusts which I
got but just could not get the good pop on my spock culo making me land it very
wet.. in the end this made the difference making me lose in a 2-1 decision
losing by just 1 point.. So now it would all come down to the double
elimination.</div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">On Friday the wind was
a lot lighter making me choose straight away for my 5.2 to be powered up enough
against an on fire Ricardo Campello who was sailing better every heat. I sailed
a perfect heat and although he landed pretty much a shovit-‘air’spock straight
in front of me I knew I had won before I even heard the result so I sailed in
very fast to have a drink and warm up a bit as it was only 6 to 7°C (without
wind-chill). Next heat I was against Anthony Ruenes<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(one of the guys who battled for 5th place) I
sailed a<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>quite good heat but not really
my best one as the wind got really light. In the end I did enough to advance
and sailed to the beach again to hope that Taty won from Davy Scheffers as this
would secure my top 5 position on the overall! When he did, all the stress was
from my shoulders and I sailed just to have fun.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Against Taty the wind was
still light but I found more a rhythm in this winds and changed my tactics of
moves a bit because of the lighter wind. I sailed really good and scored one of
the highest scoring heats for me this event getting even 54 points on one
sheet! Next heat I was against Kiri Thode, I was getting so cold by this time I
almost couldn’t feel my feet anymore and was just dreaming of getting underneath
a warm shower at this point but I still gave it my best to get a top 4 result
finally at the end of the year. The wind was light and it was searching for
gusts but I put a good heat together and just like against Golitto I knew it
would come down to the last move which had to be high scoring. I went for the
chacho in the last seconds and landed it just a bit wet.. In the end I thought
I lost for sure but after hearing I only lost by half a point I was a bit
bumped it was so close. Luckily this feeling disappeared very fast as Kiri
improved his heats and finally could get the world tittle after all these year
of being so close to it! Big congratulations to him!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><o:p> </o:p></span>For me 2013 has been a
great year but it isn’t over yet, the goal in the PWA is reached with a top 5
placement but with one more event to go on the EFPT the season isn’t completely
over yet. To get the overall title here will be hard as there are only 100
points to win, which would mean that Steven has to finish outside of the top 5
to have a chance to win the overall title so the main goal is to defend my first
place there from last year and hope I can win it again to finish the season
really good but I know this wont be easy!</div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">It’s been a week since
the PWA at Brouwersdam has ended after a great week of sailing, relaxing and
partying at the DAM 7 festival! Having a world cup at your homespot the place
you learned so much is always something special and seeing the amazing setup of
the event made it all look unreal. There wasn’t a long travel to the
competition but just a one-hour drive, it wasn’t a new place and instead of
asking all the locals what the wind was going to do you where the guy they came
to instead of the other way around. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">During the week we got
some really good wind from the NW that makes it quite flat for the wind there
is. In the single elimination I was straight up against Julien Mas who is one
of the top sailors in France and would made me go straight full on from of the
start. I had a pretty good heat and advanced against Max Mattisek who made the
big upset of the day by defeating Davy Scheffers in round 2. After winning
against Max who was really sailing well I was up against Steven. The wind got
super strong and I was fully powered up on 4.0 and even a bit overpowered in
the gusts. I didn’t sail a really good heat and couldn’t really put on a fight
against Steven who was sailing amazing in the strong wind conditions.</span></div>

The next day it was
time for the double elimination, the chance for wind was pretty big but it kept
us waiting the whole time as it only kicked in around 1 or 2. By the time I had
to sail it was already 7 in the evening and I was up against Davy Scheffers who
was having a great comeback in the double elimination with some amazing
sailing. I knew it would be a close heat but I gave it my best, I missed my big
moves I was training on after Fuerte like no handed burner and flaka shaka but
still managed to sail a really good heat with moves like spockculo, skopu both
sides burner 900°, really big kono etc. In the end the heat came down to the
last move of Davy which was a no-handed burner 900° jumped 3-4 seconds after
the horn of the end of the heat as you can see in the link below. It was a
super impressive move which made the heat turn into his favour, although he
only had his front foot standing in the foot strap 1 second before the end and
putting his second one in as the heat ended still having to duck and jump the
actual move after the end of the heat it still counted which in my opinion is a
wrong call as like this you give an advantage to the people who do their moves
switch compared to people who do their move normal stance.</div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">As I saw the footage
only the next day so I couldn’t do anything anymore and had to go on with my
9th place.. I’m not the best loser I admit that but when I know it was fair I
can put myself over it pretty fast and be happy with the result but now I
can’t. I lost the chance to defend and assure my top 5 ranking for 2013 and to
get a good result on my home spot all-in 4 seconds. But of course this is all
my opinion, I would say that if you agree the move of Davy should count I lose
on a fair way and I deserved to be 9th, if you think the move of Davy shouldn’t
have counted you agree I should have got a better place than 9th. I had an
amazing week at the DAM 7 and can’t wait till next year to improve my result
and look back with no mixed feelings. In a few days I leave to Sylt for the
last PWA of the year let’s hope I can get a good result and get back into the
top 5, which is still my goal of the year! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">It’s been a
long time since I wrote something on this blog but Augustus has kind of been
busy and hectic, a pretty good reason for that was a last minute trip to Egypt.
The wind at home didn’t show up since I got back from Lanzarote besides one day
and the forecast for Egypt simply looked amazing. After checking the tickets I
was on the airplane one day later and caught literally the last flight to Egypt
after the conflict in Cairo which if you belive the media was spread all over
the country and made Egypt unsafe.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">When I
landed in Egypt there wasn’t to much difference with other times, no burning
cars, no tanks driving true the streets only less people and no taxis driving
to Dahab after 7 p.m. as this wasn’t allowed by the government. This made me
stay one night in Sharm for the first time ever as normally I go straight to dahab,
which is a one-hour drive. Although I was there on one of the worst nights of
the “revolution” there was nothing to notice in Sharm and pretty much whole the
Sinai (which is the touristic and windy part of Egypt). After I arrived the
next morning in Dahab with just a few more police officers at the checkpoints,
Dahab was still the same as it always had been, windy, sunny and warm!</span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Like always
I was staying at club Vass who where exceptionally calm because of the
revolution and all the bad news in the media, just like all other windsurfing
clubs actually which gave more place on the water which for me was pretty nice!
Anyway just as the forecast promised the wind was there every day for the whole
week, with 5 out of the 7 days even wind in the afternoon that allowed me to
sail 4 hours every single day at least and was great training for the upcoming
event in Brouwersdam which starts Sunday! Besides the great sailing where I
came for of course I had great days and evenings with friends and the local
boys from Dahab to relax after all the sailing with a BBQ on the beach during
moonrise as my absolute favorite! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">When I came
back home after a week everybody told me how bad it looked on the news which
made me just amazed with how good the media is with turning things there way and
make it look like whole Egypt is in war while the conflict was still only in
Cairo, the media made the biggest disaster in Egypt out my point of view by
turning the facts and killing the tourism to Egypt which still is perfectly
safe! With a lot of flights cancelled to Egypt it’s hard to still get to Dahab
but if you can I only can say that is as safe as it always has been before!
However for upcoming week I wouldn’t go to Egypt as you can much better come to
the<a href="http://www.dam7.nl/nl/"> DAM7 and PWA</a> worldcup at my homespot Brouwersdam! Next update will be from
there! If you want to keep more up to date be sure to like and check <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dieter-Van-der-Eyken-B35/102001416552208?fref=ts">my fan page on Facebook!</a></span></div>

B.t.w.: one
more question to think about concerning the Egyptian “revolution”, after all
flights where cancelled how many things did you still read in the news about
this ‘unsafe’ country?</div>

of the year has just passed and saw 2 full double eliminations completed during
6 days of competition with not the strongest Fuerteventura wind yet but still
4.4 weather every day almost! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">It’s the 4th time that
I can remember we did 2 double eliminations on the PWA after 3 years of
competing but it’s the first time ever I saw so many amazing heats with super
high level starting from round 1 up(I had from of the start a close heat
against Yarden Meir which made me realise I was sailing too save)!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For me the contest went super good, I felt
prepared and on the new Severne Freek I felt super comfortable! I could show a
much higher level in my heats than in Podersdorf and felt I was getting closer
to the top riders and sailed some of the best heats so far which could get me
even higher in the future.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">To make the 6days
competition a bit shorter I’ll just pick out the best moments.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">2nd heat in the first
single against Amado Vrieswijk:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">After the close heat
against Yarden I was straight up against one of my best friends and teammate
Amado Vrieswijk from Bonaire. Knowing he is one of the young guys to watch out
for this year and was making a lot of big upsets in Podersdorf I knew I had to
sail one of my best heats to win. I had my best heat so far in the competition
landing, spock culo’s , culo spock, burner 900° etc. And big switch moves on
the way out to make sure I could win this heat to make in the top 8! I was
super stocked when I won but I would have preferred to meet Amado later so we
both had a good result, which he still got in the end with an amazing 7<sup>th</sup>
place! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Heat for the top 5 in
the first Double against Antony Ruenes:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Me and Antony had
already a lot of close heats the past years as we usually end up against eachother
in the single (besides this event finally!) and I always have to sail my
absolute best to win and I did sail at a level where I could have gotten
further than 5th. I landed a massive skopu on the way out, big shaka flaka and
a lot of good moves on the way in making me score 53 points on the judging
sheets. I wish I could have done this over again many more times but sadly enough
I peaked a bit to early to get even further in the double elimination (lost
with a 2-1 decision against Kiri the heat after that), being a bit tiered of
sailing so many heats after eachother could also explain a lot. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">2nd heat of the second
single against Adrien Bosson<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Adrien Bosson was for
me one of the most impressive guys this event who really showed a great level.
So again not an easy second heat which forced me to sail really good again as I
didn’t want to lose my 5th place from the first Double! I sailed again a 50+
scoring heat and got the feeling I could win my next heat if I sailed like this
again against Steven Van Broeckhoven, I did on the way out but on the way in I
missed my big moves from the heat before which made a repetition from last year
not possible to score a top 4 position in a single elimination<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">In the end I finished
2 times 5th in the double elimination and had the feeling I could even do
better but I will bring all this positive energy in to my training for the next
event at Brouwersdam as I would like to keep my 4th place on the world ranking
which will be hard but not impossible!! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Last month
has been pretty hectic with lots of travelling and sailing. After Russia I was
home for about 5 days before I started my trip up to Corsica for the Bonifacio
event. My dad and me built a bed in my car to get a house on wheels to save
some money later on the trip.</div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">On the way
up to Corsica I picked up Julien Mas from Le Brusc before taking the boat in
Nice which we almost missed as I slept a bit too long.. After a nice sleep in
the boat we arrived in Ajaccio and still had to drive for 2 hours through the
mountains of Corsica to make it to the villa in Bonifacio. The event took 5
days where we had wind, tow-in a lot of sun but most of all a lot of good
moments! I finished 4th overall after winning all the elimination in the
windsurfing category in front of Steven which made me super stoked but lost a
LOT of points on all the rest (tow-in 2x and light wind freestyle).
Nevertheless I got a really great time and want to thank the organisers of this
event again for the great organisation! Can’t wait to go back next year!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Corsica I took the boat to Sardinia to start the second part of the trip. All
good and well started I was happy to be back on this great Island but I got
fast less happy as after being 1 hour on the island my car broke down and
didn’t really want to move anymore. Lucky for me my girlfriend could rent a car
at the airport (who I was supposed to go and pick up) to make her holiday start
perfectly with no stress especially as in the dark I was easy to find without
GPS.. The day after the Italian crew came to pick up all my gear to bring it to
Porto Pollo so I could sail the next day when the forecast was predicting nice
west wind. These 2 days the wind was super, with the first day a bit lighter
than expected making 4.8 fully powered up and the second day proper 30-35knts
to score some great sailing on the 4.0 prototype of next year which absolutely
make you fly!</div>

car got fixed (after 6 days and a nice bill) I finally could tour around again
with my own car and sleep where I wanted. My girlfriend left by this time and
my sister came over for a short weekend. Instead of writing every day down I
sailed I will write down the top moments. I sailed 3 days in Murta Maria with
strong east winds before the wind turned to west again and I mostly sailed at
Coluccia (a spot a bit upwind of Porto Pollo with free parking) together with
Stefanino and scored some amazing days on 4.4 and 4.0. which was good for
training!</div>

One day the
wind was really strong and there should be some good waves around. Well both
where there especially the waves but sadly enough the wind was too onshore
which made going out impossible on most spots, the once who went also went out
after 10 min as it was too risky and not much fun at all! I tried to find a
break that worked and ended up at Platamone, wind was more side shore here but
also a lot lighter. After sailing for 2 hours in not the best conditions I
decided to go back to Porto Pollo and do an evening session there on 4.0 and
the wave board just to get some jumps and have some fun with the instructors of
the club. The day after I had my last session at Coluccia again and took the
boat back home for the Next Generation Project at Brouwersdam which was a good success
and a lot of fun!</div>

After
Podersdorf I spent almost 10 days at home before I left to Russia for the first
EFPT stop of the year. I scored some really sick sessions at home but will post
an update about this later when I find some time to sort out the pictures and
have good internet.</div>

Russia is the longest contest of the year we got so far with 6 days to give
enough chance to get wind during the event as it’s pretty early in the season
for there, but we were treated like kings which made the week fly by like it
was nothing! So here is a really fast recap from the event.</div>

everybody climbed up<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>the wall without
practice before! For myself I think I won’t mention my time as it wasn’t really
the best… Let’s say I’m much better in windsurfing than in climbing…</span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

second day of the event the organisers arranged a jetski and a boat for us to
do some amazing tow in with using the wave of the boat to go super high in zero
wind which was just amazing to see especially at night! Everybody went full for
it which resulted in some sick moves/crashes where a 540° rotation in the air
was totally normal! It took tow in freestyle to another level which was great
to see!</div>

day the wind showed up for the first time, well at least some wind showed up
for the first time but sadly enough it wasn’t enough to start competition which
left us the whole day on standby before we got a trampoline show from the
Olympic team of Russia which was pretty impressive!</div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"> </span>On the 4<sup>th</sup>
day we did the tow in competition as the next days looked windy on the
forecast, this time without boat, as the boat was used to shoot pictures by the
media so it was a normal tow-in without ramp. For me the tow-in didn’t go super
but I wanted to try the Burner 900° instead of a double or triple funnel sadly
enough I ‘crashed’ both attempts and finished on the 7th place. Big surprise in
this tow-in was Severne teammate Rick Jendrush who scored a second place with
an amazing triple funnel! Congratz!</div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"> </span>After 4
days of waiting we finally got wind, well at least enough to sail a
competition. On Friday everybody found out what rain can do to wind, out of
nowhere there came wind up to 30 – 35 knts making everybody fully powered up on
their smaller sails. I was pretty happy I took my 4.4 to Russia which I actually
only brought for the tow-in but could use full power in my first heat! The heat
went really well and I could land some of the sickest moves I did during the
event like a super fast burner 900° and a big airfunnel 900°. After the first
round the wind dropped as fast as it came and I was doomed to be in the first
heat of the second round which eventually meant I had to sail my heat 3 or 4
times before it counted. In the end I won from Adam Sims and could land my
first SS shaka in a heat. After this final heat the wind really dropped and
competition ended for the day.</div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"> </span>On the last
day Saturday we had a super early skippers meeting at 6.30 to catch the wind
predicted in the morning but sadly enough the storm already had past and the
wind already dropped away by the time we could start, making us go back to
sleep to start the waiting game from of<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>9 a.m. . In the end the wind showed up around 3 p.m. and we could finish
the single elimination. The wind was really light and only the gust where good
enough to plane on my 5.2 which made it really hard to sail competition but
with 10 min. heats and only 3 moves counting each side it was still possible to
sail the competition. In the semi final I had to sail against Adrian Beholz who
got 3rd overall last year. I sailed a really good heat and made it to the final
against Steven Van Broeckhoven. In the final I knew I had to do really good
moves to win against Steven which made me take some risks. It resulted in the
worst heat of the event so far from me which made me end up in second place
behind a really good sailing Steven! The double continued afterwards in the
same or even lighter conditions than in the single which were already on the
limit of fair competition. By the time I had to sail again the wind dropped so much
that doing any power moves got almost impossible, but I had to defend my second
place against Phil Soltysiak who made an amazing comeback in the single. Again
I sailed a good heat and managed to get in the final again against Steven. The
wind was really light and I barely could do a Culo, Steven still pumped himself
into a culo, burner and ponch making him win the heat and the event in Russia!</div>

it was an amazing week with really a lot of fun! My competition sailing got
more up again and I start to feel more confident in sailing heats again
compared to Podersdorf which is really positive for Fuerteventura.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Besides that I really want to thank the

<span lang="EN-US">I’m 2 weeks at home again and I have to say
I did quite a lot of sailing as it has been pretty windy at home! The main
thing in the past 2 weeks was probably the Belgium Wave Championships , first
possible weekend we could run the competition conditions looked perfect on the
forecast for a competition on real Belgian grounds, Bredene! Instead of
standing a whole weekend long on a Freestyle board I was now concentrating on
getting my wave sailing up again as I didn’t sail too much in the waves this
winter, but felt still really comfortable and I think I was never so consistent
in my Takas as this weekend.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"> </span>On Friday we did the single of the
competition, which first looked like an amazing day turned out to be not the
best conditions. Waves where not too high with max 1m and the wind was lighter
than I thought it would be, still 4.4 full power but let’s say it’s not what we
all hoped for! After making it through the semi final against Fabrice de Vos
(4x Belgian Wave champion) with my best heat of the event probably I was up
against Jonas Handekyn the last Belgian Wave Champion. Me and Jonas are one of
the only ones who land Takas and backside 360 consistently enough to do them in
the heat so I knew it was going to be a close heat. On jumps we’re pretty
equally also but luckily for me I can jump back loops on smaller waves and
could make the difference here especially as the wind just dropped before the
heat to 4.8 weather! So super stoked after winning the single it was time to
defend my first place in the double the next day.</div>

<span lang="EN-US">Again it weren’t the conditions we hoped
for but guess that’s how competition always goes, pretty similar to the day
before the wind decided to drop just for the finals making us extend the heats
by 3 min to give us more time to find our 2 jumps. On wave riding it wasn’t to
bad actually I found in this heat, the wind turned a bit offshore = super gusty
because of all the buildings at the Belgian coastline but instead we got a bit
cleaner waves with more than 1 or 2 turns possible sometimes. I did 2 good wave
rides with one a taka inside and another one where I did 4 turns with the
smallest aerial of my life. On the jumps I did my cleanest forward with wind
from the left in my life I think, and finally could land a backloop OH in the
contest as during the last 3 min the wind picked up big time to get me pretty
powered up on my 4.8 . In the end I won the heat and can call myself Belgian
Wave Champion for now as in Autumn there is still a chance to run another
competition if the conditions are good, hope I will be in the country than to
defend my first place.. But anyway super stoked I was able to win my first Wave
contest ever!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Last month has been a real busy one! After Bonaire I
was one week at home before I left to Sardinia for 2 weeks, one week of
training and one week of teaching for the Next Generation Project but more
about this on the website (ngp-windsurfing.com). The most important thing the
past month was the PWA in Podersdorf which was the kick off of the season!</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

windsurf” scene again! The atmosphere was really good and you could see
everybody was fully concentrated to get a good start of the season! Like last
year it was again really warm and almost summer temperatures instead of the
usual cold we get in Podersdorf and of course warm means South wind! One day,
one single and one double done after 10 hours of competition, I never saw this
before in the PWA and I don’t know if this is ever done before in PWA history
but it was a good call as it was the only good windy day to compete in of the entire
week!</span></div>

place again in Podersdorf but I know where I have to work on for Fuerteventura
which will be a 7 day competition for Freestyle only (longest ever) so lots of
heats will be sailed there! But first I still go to the EFPT in Russia where
getting the Visa is a bigger travel than getting there, but at least I can say
I’ve been to Russia, hope for some good wind there!</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">The last
time I updated from Bonaire is a while ago but now the trip has come to an end
I finally have a bit of time to write a bit about how it was. Pretty easy to
say in just one word EPIC! The wind kept on blowing till the beginning of my
last week giving me almost 5 weeks of wind in a row even sailing on 4.4 one day
which for Bonaire doesn’t happen too often! So had a good time to get my level
up and have a lot of fun sailing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">During this
trip I met again a lot of great people which always is the best thing about
travelling. I can write whole stories about everyone of them but let’s say they
made the good time on Bonaire even better! Compared to Brazil I felt more home
on Bonaire as I know much more people on the island and the language barrier is
a bit smaller on Bonaire as everybody speaks Dutch which makes live a lot more easier!
Every day I would have something to do and almost never I got bored!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Besides
having a lot of great sailing I also went fishing for the first time in my live
here on Bonaire! On less windy days you take a big beginner board sail up to
Lac (Reef at the side of the bay) and start fishing with a hand line. You just
sail up and down till the fish bite, pull them in kill them and go catch the
next one. I’m not so trained yet as other locals but was very happy to catch my
first fish which wasn’t too small actually and tasted really good that evening!
Next year I will do this much more for sure as a hand line isn’t that expensive
and fish you caught yourself always tastes better than the ones you buy in the
supermarket!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Here in
Bonaire already 2 and a half weeks past like it was nothing everything is going
really fast and in a bit more than a month I’m already flying home again, this
year Bonaire is definitely making up for last year where I had no wind for 3
weeks.. Besides the first weeks it has been windy almost every single day and
not only 5.2 weather but also 4.8 sessions which sometimes even were a bit
overpowered with other words I’m scoring the good side of Bonaire big time!</span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">It is
really nice to be on this island again as I see a lot of old friends again but
also make new once, the vibe is always good and the sailing is just amazing!!
I’ve been sailing a lot with all the top guys from Bonaire and each of them
pushes me to train harder and try moves where I wouldn’t think off if I would
be sailing alone, the level went up a lot from the guys and I have to admit
that in the past 2 weeks I learned already more than I could have expected and
with the first windless day not even visible on the forecast the training will
keep on going hard and a lot to get myself fully ready for the 2013 season!</span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

the good sailing I’m also one of the first visitors who stays in the
“Surfhouse” which offers cheap accommodation not to far from Sorobon, especially
for short stays it’s really interesting to stay in the hostel as you just pay
12 dollars a night for each person which is for Bonaire pretty cheap!</span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"> </span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB">As I’m writing this as I am on my flight to Bonaire for a trip of 7 weeks, my last big trip before the season starts again end of April. I didn’t have the time yet earlier to update my blog because I’ve been pretty busy at home. January means exams for me and since I didn’t really do anything during the year it was all hands on deck to pass the exams I had to do. I didn’t get the points yet but I think I passed all so it was definitely worth the effort.</span><br />

<span lang="EN-GB"><span lang="EN-GB">Besides that I also started with a new Project. I was actually already busy with it since Brazil but now we finally could post it online. The “Next Generation Project” is a clinic program for the young people where we will make up a price including everything besides flights and transfer. For more info about this project be sure to check and like the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheNextGenerationProject" target="_blank">fan page on Facebook</a>! It’s definitely worth checking out!!</span></span><br />

<span lang="EN-GB">2 weeks ago I also went for the first time in my life to “Das Boot” in Düsseldorf which is one of the biggest indoor fairs for windsurfing. I only could stay one day as I didn’t have more time but it was great to see a lot of people again which I normally don’t see till the competition season starts again. Also the Starboard and Severne stand was very nice presented with the biggest setup from all the brands, which was really great to see.</span><br />

<span lang="EN-GB"><span lang="EN-GB">At the Boat show I also met up with Chris Pressler from C7 and showed him a clip of one of my Airkabi’s in Brazil that I made on the last day of last year. He immediately put the clip on his hard drive and put it online the next day, the response on Facebook is something I never could expect with more the 800 likes and 450 shares it’s for sure my most watched move from windsurfing ever!</span></span><br />

<span lang="EN-GB"><span lang="EN-GB"><span lang="EN-GB">A thing I actually even least expected was still to sail at home. Since I got back from brazil the temperatures in Belgium went down a lot and I think we had around 2 weeks of snow which doesn’t really happen every year making me think more about going ice surfing than windsurfing. But last week the temperatures went up again going even to 12 degrees which meant a difference of 20° in just one week (crazy Belgium weather) and above that good strong winds! The water at the sea was still cold (4°C) but the air temperatures and the good Camaro Icetech wetsuit made it turn out into 3 good sessions on the sea! Sailing 4.4, 3.7 and 3.3 in 3 days with some of the better conditions in Bredene I have seen in a while especially the last day made it a good choice to stay one more week at home! I sailed with friends I don’t see to often and just had a lot of fun wave sailing again. Europe is cold in winter but when the conditions are good they are almost sometimes more fun than the tropical places we travel to, although I have to admit I won’t miss the cold water in Bonaire!</span></span></span><br />

But now it’s time for action again and I hope for a good 7 weeks on Bonaire with good winds and a lot of new moves! But I think with the Bonaire crew that shouldn’t be a problem!</span></span></span></span><br />

EFPT was done me and Rick travelled down to Brazil, not Jeri like most people
but of to São Miguel do Gostoso the place where Kauli Seadi has his centre.
Gostoso enjoys the same winds as Jeri (maybe a little bit less but practically
the same) with winds for my Freek 4.4 or 4.8 every single day which is absolutely
amazing, I’ve been here now for 6 weeks and only didn’t sail for 3 or 4 days
which means I’ve been sailing about 40 days already and still not getting tired
of it. Coming to Brazil was definitely a good plan.</div>

<span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">The best sessions are
always with low tide as you get perfect flat water between the waves just next
to the “rocks” making it the perfect place to train freestyle moves on the way
in. On the way out it’s a bit more choppy but still ok to do airmoves and
practice jumping with wind from the right. Also we had some great swells
passing especially last week making my wave board come in good use for some
down the line wave riding! With high tide it’s much more choppy and harder to
sail but like this you can learn moves one week on the flat and then train them
the next week in the chop making you get more consistent in them in all kind of
conditions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
It’s been a while since I updated my blog as my last update was from the EFPT in France but the last 2 weeks have been really hectic. After France we went straight to England for the 3rd and last stop of the EFPT.<br />
<br />
Arriving one day in front of the competition I got the time to get a bit used to the condition which where pretty flat and cold winds, definitely a big change after South of France. On Saturday we started the competition with great winds, in the beginning of the day it wasn’t that much yet but after the first round the conditions definitely improved making me fully powered up on my 4.8 in my first heat and 4.4 in my second heat. By the time I got to the semi final the wind was so much up and down I didn’t know what sail to take and just went for the biggest one the 4.8 with the 4.4 on the side in case the wind would pick up during the heat and this seemed to be the perfect call as in the middle of the heat I made a really quick switch to my 4.4 to get some more control again but even that was to big by the end of the heat. By the time the final would start the wind completely died going from 30 knts to 5 in about 2 min., which left us waiting for the next day.<br />

In the final heat against Davy the wind started to drop a lot making power moves almost impossible and putting a good heat together also. I gave it my best but in the end just lost really closely against Davy whom did a perfect chacho in front of the judges that made him win.<br />

<br />
In the double I could see my Teammate from Severne Rick Jendrusch work himself really well up in the ladder by getting up to 4th place before getting stopped by Adam Gavriel who was than against me for second place. I pumped as hard as I could that heat and still got some nice moves in like Culo, shaka oh etc and had the feeling that there was a bit more wind than in the final of the single which could give me a better chance against Davy. Again I pumped as much as I could in the second final against Davy but didn’t really have much of a chance as Davy put a great heat together and I made some mistakes, which made him win the heat and the event in England.<br />

<br />
Overall I still managed to get second on the EFPT tour with only competing at 2 events of the 3 there were this year, which made me very happy and motivated to hopefully get one place higher in the<br />
overall next year!<br />

After England I went straight home to organize everything for my trip to Brazil for 7 weeks, in 4 days I had to take care of booking a flight, getting all my stuff from school ready as before France I didn’t have time for that yet and get everything packed for the flight on Tuesday, in the end it worked out perfectly but it did make my days at home pretty hectic. So far Brazil has been great with wind for 4.8 every day and some really nice conditions at São miguel do gostoso, I can live with these conditions for 6,5 more weeks. The Internet is really bad here so I don’t know how many updates I will be able to do but I will try my best to keep you all up to date!<br />

<br />
The last week I have been in France for the second stop of the EFPT in Le Brusc and it’s absolutely been a great week where in I won my first EFPT event ever in my life!<br />
<br />
I travelled up to France together with Rick Jendrusch to share the costs. After a long drive with a little de-tour as there are apparently 2 Le Bruscs (one with water and the other one only with cows on the road) in the South of France, we arrived in Le Brusc on Thursday. With a lot of rain on Friday there was no chance for a warm up session and ended up in a day at the hotel, good to relax before the competition would start with a really strong forecast for the next 2 days.<br />
<br />

On Saturday we had the registration for the competition with the first possible start at 12.30. On the registration list we had some really big names like Tonky Frans, Antony Ruenes and of course leading the ranking this year Davy Scheffers, but also a lot of local French guys with high level like Julien Mas, Adrien Bosson (local hero) etc. So a really high level of sailing was guaranteed! The competition started a bit later than planned which gave me the perfect time to warm up on my 4.4 Freek which is the nicest size you can have in Le Brusc, but with a forecast of increasing wind I already put my Freek 4.0 ready as I was pretty sure I would need that. I was in the second round one of the last heats so I had a lot of time to relax before the action would start.<br />
<br />
Around 3 o’clock I came in action for the first time and didn’t sail my best heat but enough to advance, I knew I needed to get my rhythm up a bit more if I wanted to keep advancing the next rounds, in the third round I met up with Max Mattisek (the first guy I ever won from in a PWA heat) and finally got my heat sorted out, Skopus both ways, burners both ways, big shaka both sides, Kono, double spock etc which gave me a lot of confidence toward the next heat against Davy Scheffers (who won from me twice on the last Dutch championships). Against Davy I sailed pretty much the same heat but also landed a shovit-spock instead of the double spock. I saw Davy pulling out some great moves too but in the end I won because I was more consistent in my moves and crashed<br />
less than him.<br />

<br />
In the semi final I met up with Mattia Fabrizzi who stormed his way through the single defeating Julian Mas in the quarter finals, I managed to control the stronger getting wind a bit better than him and sailed another solid heat to make me advance in the final against number 5 in the world Tonky Frans. By the time this heat started I was absolutely flying away on my 4.0 and pretty much had no control which resulted in one of the lesser heats from the single, both me and Tonky were struggling very hard and in the end it was Tonky who won the heat, next time I would take my 3.6 if it’s so windy I thought to myself so I have at least a bit more control.<br />

On Sunday we had the double in even stronger winds, this time I didn’t even bother to put my 4.4 ready just 4.0 and 3.6 Freek. A few heats before my heat I started to test the conditions a bit and decided to give my 3.6 Freek prototype a try for the first time and I was absolutely amazed with how good the sail was even in 40 knts it was still very easy ducking so I already knew which sail I would use in my heat. Davy came storming through the double defeating a really well sailing Rick Jendrusch, Antony Ruenes, Mattia Fabrizzi and Adrien Beholz before having another match up against me. The wind was strong and even on 3.6 I was having a hard time making me even sometimes struggle with a normal spock, but with a really solid heat again I felt pretty sure about my win against Davy who I saw crashing more than me as he obviously was getting tiered from all the heats.<br />

So next up was Tonky again who definitely was having some problems with the cold that day as I think it was only about 11°C with really cold wind on top of that making it feel like winter pretty much and made him not land too much in his first heat against me making me win and get into a super final. In the super final Tonky got a bit warmer and sailed much better not wanting to give his first place away without a fight and I sailed the best I could in the final heat, landing moves like Culo, Burner both ways, shaka both ways, skopu etc. In the end Tonky went only for the really big moves which made him crash a bit more but also land sick ones like the only pushloop of the event and the only Bongka of the event so I wasn’t sure about my win till Tom Hartman announced me as the winner of the double elimination which gave me a really big smile on my face!! First time I could beat Tonky and win an elimination in the EFPT!<br />
<br />
After that we had 2 days of no wind and some Tow-in, I made it into the finals here but couldn’t get into the top 5 as all the Frenchies where pretty good in this, I guess they did a bit more training in this.. All by all it was a great show with an amazing level of tow-in on a nice sunny day! <br />

The last day there was predicted a lot of wind again to run another single in offshore wind but the counsel forbid us to run the competition because of security reasons and there was a red alert warming for the entire area. This gave us a last day of no action and my first ever EFPT win!! I would like to thank the organizers again of the event who did a great job!! Hope to come again next year!<br />

Now I’m on my way for the last EFPT in England, I’m not in the running anymore for the title as every event will count this year (I missed the one in Sigri due to exams) but I do hope to stand on the highest place again - will see!<br />

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Last
weekend we had the last stop of the Dutch Freestyle championships which where
held at Lauwersmeer in the very north/cold of the Netherlands! It was the first
time for me to ever come to this lake as last year I missed out on it and I
have to say that the organisation did a really good job providing us nice parking
place, a great pool party on Saturday night and a nice prize giving on Sunday
afternoon!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">On Saturday
we didn’t have enough wind to run an official competition which made us move to
a tow-in competition.. With only 10°C I have to be honest it wasn’t the most
fun I had during the weekend as I was more freezing on the side than getting
pulled in by the boat, in the end it was just to show something and have at
least a result of something in case it wouldn’t get windy the next day. In the
evening we had the best way to warm up with a nice pool party together with all
the competitors, which was really a lot of fun and a great way to spend the
evening!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">On Sunday
the wind looked much better with winds around 20 knts. We started the
competition around 11 a.m. and by 4 p.m. we finished 3 single eliminations to
get the end result. I can’t remember the last time I sailed competition in such
cold conditions with air temperatures around 2°C it was hard to stay warm and
motivated to keep on sailing and get in the cold water again.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">In the
first elimination I sailed a good semi final, which gave me a lot of confidence
for the final where I would meet Davy Scheffers, Rick Jendrusch and Nick Van
Ingen. Unlike my half final I started terrible with pretty much crashing every
single move during the first half of the heat. We had 6 moves to count with no
limit of attempts so I knew nothing was lost yet but I was getting really cold
of falling in the water the whole time. As soon as I landed my first Airfunnel
I got a bit warmer and got my form back linking one move after another, kono,
culo, burners, big shaka and an airfunnel 900 gave me the lead in this final
where the level was lower than in the semi finals. Rick got second in that final
in front of Davy who got 3rd which gave me a good lead in the overall of the year
(with my 2nd place in the first competition just before Sylt). With the plan of
only doing 2 singles it even looked good for the event lead.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">In the
second elimination Davy re found his form in the final and I didn’t manage to
land my big moves like the spockculo and the kabicuchi. And with Davy making in
the final minute of the heat a perfect flaka shaka I knew I had to be satisfied
with second place in that final before I even heard the results. I didn’t mind
too much as I thought it was over for the day and was more thinking about a
nice hot shower than the result of the final as I was getting really cold of
standing on the side. But with the wind that still was their and enough time to
run another single elimination we decided to do another 3rd single elimination.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">I knew if I
wanted to become Dutch champion I had to finish in the top 2 to win the overall
title even if Davy would win the last elimination. With that in mind I was a
bit more relaxed for the final in the 3rd elimination but still wanted to win
of course! I sailed a good heat making spock culo, big kono, perfect culo,
super fast Burner, airfunnel into funnel, airbob and a good shaka720 . I didn’t
see what Davy did but I knew I had enough to be in the top 2 and had the title.
In the end I lost the final in a close decision against Davy, which gave him
the event win, and me the Dutch title as I had a better discard. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">September
has been extremely busy with good winds and a lot of action. The most important
of the month was of course the PWA in Sylt and I have to say this year we where
absolutely blessed by so much wind, almost every single day there was enough
wind to do either, slalom, wave or freestyle. In freestyle and wave they
finished a double in some of the best conditions you can wish for Sylt, nice
side shore instead of the usual onshore you get there.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">In the
single of the freestyle it was still onshore which made it extremely hard to
freestyle as shop and waves where really coming from everywhere.. The day
before during the warm up the wind was a little bit more side shore and I was
hoping for the same during the competition but it wasn’t. I pretty easily past
my first heat against Fabien Weiber although I didn’t have my best heat against
him so I knew I really had to step it up against Anthony Ruenes in the next
heat. The wind picked up pretty strong just before the heat and I better had
taken 4.4 instead of the 4.8 I had. I started with a massive backloop but just
crashed in the end and the nerves already started to take over. In the end I
still did a nice shaka, airflaka and burner on one side and on the other side
kabichuchi ,culo and kono in the end it was not enough to advance against
Anthony who sailed a better heat.. So 9th after the single, not my goal but
there was still the double to come!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">In the
double we got the best conditions I ever had on Sylt, perfect side shore, nice
ramps and pretty flat between the waves just a joy to sail!! It was pretty much
the best conditions we had the whole year and that in Sylt. Besides that I was
just having a blast on the water, my first heat against Mattia Fabrizi was the
best heat of my whole live, it was just SICK and that you could see at my
scores as I scored on one of my sheets a 53 out of 60 which was the highest
score of the whole event. Besides that I also went for the SSkono into forward
and came pretty close to landing it, if I would have stayed a bit more
horizontal I’m pretty sure I could have landed it but hopefully next year I will
be able to land it in the competition it’s definitely possible! After this I
was full of energy and ready to work my way up in the double. After beating
Mattia I took on Max Rowe who was sailing really good beating him with only 3
points as I didn’t have a great heat like before, next up was Davy Scheffers
one of the most talented guys on tour who became 5th overall last year and
knowing from sailing with him at home he has all the big moves in the bag to
make it a hard fight. I knew I needed a heat like against Mattia and that’s
what I did not yet the same level as that one but close to it, throwing down
spock culo’s, burner, Kabichuci etc. In the end I obviously won as Davy had
just his worst heat of the event which placed me in the top 8 where I would
meet Phil Soltysiak. Because the wave conditions got good enough to start the wave
competition, the freestyle was over for that day and wave was on!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">I also
competed this event in the Wave’s for the first time, just for fun and didn’t
bother about ending last; I just wanted to see how my level was on the waves.
In the single I lost against Taty Frans as I had a really hard time in the
onshore conditions and couldn’t really show my wave riding which made him win
in the end. In the Double I would meet Robby Swift who got 4th in Pozo this
year and was equal to Mission impossible so the only thing I wanted to do was
to show the judges that I at least can better wave ride than I showed in my
heat against Taty and I think with the side shore conditions I made clear I could
also wave ride a bit, scoring 2 waves of 5,3 and 5,5 giving a total of 10,8
points for the heat which wasn’t enough to win against Robby Swift who scored
around 12,5 or 13. But at least I scored above 5 on 2 of my waves which looking
to the rest of the first round of the double elimination wasn’t bad at all!
Satisfied with this result I was eager to go further with the Freestyle
competition again. After they stopped with the wave because of the bad
conditions I went out on my Freestyle board to show the judges it was still
great for running the freestyle but in the end they where to tiered of judging
already the whole day since 9 in the morning that they stopped at 4 with the
competition.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">I was
really bummed with this decision as I really found my form that day and was
sailing my highest level during the free sailing, making backloops, culospocks,
spock culo’s and all the other new school moves.. I’m pretty sure that the story
of the rest of the double would have gone totally otherwise if we kept competing
that day instead of 2 days later, but it was like this and you can’t change it
anymore.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">This part
is pretty short as with an early morning start and no chance to warm up at all
I sailed the worst heat of the whole event, I couldn’t get even close to the
level which I was sailing all the other days and definitely wasn’t warmed up
enough with just 2 runs out because before that it was still dark which made
warming up impossible/dangerous. In the end I lost super super close winning on
one sheet with half a point and losing on the other 2 in a tie-break which made
me extra bumped cause if on the way out I would have just landed one more easy
move I easily would have won but instead I tried a burner and crashed my
chances.. So 7th after the double and also 7th at the event, good work up again
in the double but still disappointing result.. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">With this
7th place I worked myself up again to a 8th place overall which is the same as
last year and far from my goal of reaching the top 5 which was the meaning at
the beginning of the year. The main thing I can take home after this year is
that the level is getting really close to the top guys and that if you put a
good heat together you can win against everybody, now I only have start to do
this a bit more often and get even more consistent in my sailing to make my
best heats so consistent that I get it more times on the moment when it counts!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">Now I still
will do 2 more EFPT events before the season is really over and the training
starts for next year, I’m extremely motivated to get into that top 5 next year
as I’m sure it’s possible, just have to get it together on the moments that it
counts!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
