​DO YOU HAVE ANOTHER PROFESSION?

​On days when there is no wind, I spend quite a lot of my time training calisthenics in the gym.

​COMPETITION RESULTS & MAJOR ACHIEVEMENTS

  • 3rd Place: Cold Hawaii (2022)
  • 5th Place: Lords of Tram World Championships, France (2025)

​DESCRIBE YOURSELF IN THREE WORDS

​Energetic, Friendly, Ambitious.

​WHAT GOT YOU HOOKED ON KITESURFING, AND WHAT KEEPS YOU COMING BACK FOR MORE?

​My dad initially got me hooked on kiteboarding. I started out doing freestyle, but soon after, I fell in love with Big Air. That is the discipline where I have the most fun and what keeps me coming back for more.

​TELL US ABOUT YOUR BEST PERSONAL EXPERIENCE IN THE SPORT.

​For me, nothing beats the specific feeling of catching an updraft and just floating with your kite or foil kite. That feeling is completely unmatched!

​WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE MOVE OR TRICK TO DO?

​I think my favourite and best-feeling trick is a massive doobie boardoff with no added rotations on the way down.

​WHICH IS THE BEST SPOT YOU’VE EVER RIDDEN, AND WHY?

​When all the conditions align—perfect waves, great wind, and of course, a spot that isn’t too crowded—Tarifa is absolutely the best place in the world to me.

​DO YOU HAVE ANY TOP TIPS FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO IMPROVE THEIR RIDING?

​Yes! The best advice I always give people is to start watching riders who are better than you, and then visualise the tricks off the water. For me, mental preparation is the best way to master new tricks.

​WHAT ARE YOUR AMBITIONS IN THE SPORT?

​To leave a legacy and be remembered in the sport—and, of course, to win Red Bull King of the Air (KOTA) one day!

​WHAT OR WHO INSPIRES YOU THE MOST?

​It is not really one specific person. What drives me most is simply chasing the things I love doing; that is where my true inspiration comes from.

​WHICH ARE YOUR FAVOURITE OZONE PRODUCTS, AND WHY DO YOU LIKE THEM?

​This one is easy: the Vortex V2 and the Code V5! The combination of these two is what I love most. You get the incredible float and easy handling of the Vortex, paired with the smooth, playful riding characteristics of the Code.

I have ridden Ozone from the very beginning. Fun fact: I actually learned how to kitesurf on an Ozone Uno back when I was 13 years old! I later rode as an Ozone Benelux team rider from 2019 to 2021, and I am stoked to have rejoined Ozone in 2026 as an international team rider.
