Favourite spot: The Balgzand and all it’s nice banks, this is a part of the Waddenzee just East of Den Helder (NL) it has the famous spots: The Brace, het Kuitje and Da Curve

Favourite Fanatic boards: Falcon Speed 51 and the amazing Fanatic 85 as it’s always in a fast mood...

Favourite manoeuvre: The 50+km/h Alpha

How I started Windsurfing: This was on my dad's board when I was about 10 jears old, but I got hooked when I was about 17 and able to bring all the heavy surf stuff to the lake with my Puch moped.

Best windsurfing day in my life: The day I nailed a 50 km/h plus Alpha and the first meters on the (proto)Falcon 111 together with Peter Volwater pure Crosswind speed testing pushing over 60km/h at 90 deg to the wind with Peter V.on my tail.

Other sponsors besides Fanatic: Neil Pryde, Kater.NL, BASF, MH special machines and Select Fin's

My goals: Breaking all my personal records on www.gps-speedsurfing.com break 90 km/h in 2sec, and stay on top in the USM and NK rankings getting those Falcon’s perform better and better every year.

My slogan: Cabbin crew please be seated….
