Your favorite quote: "Da lacht das Herz, wenn’s was zu Fressen gibt" (Bud Spencer)

What do you use our boards for: I use them for pumpfoiling in Switzerland, or surffoiling and surfing in France.

What are your favorite spot(s): The French Atlantic Coast, Oberrieden, Taghazout, and Byron Bay are my favorite spots.

Your craziest, best, funniest, or most adventurous ride ever: Learning to foil in the waves involved many spectacular crashes. Misjudging wave size from afar, then realizing the real dimension in the lineup, was quite the experience. Surfing with my family is always the best and funniest time in the water.

Other hobbies when you’re not on the water: I enjoy swimming, playing guitar, and dancing Tango.

Your goal this year: My goal is to finally use my Wing, which I have stored for 2 years, and learn to Wingfoil.

Tell us about a personal achievement: I ventured into learning to dance Tango after years of sticking to board and team sports, which in itself is an achievement for me.

Anything you want to let the world know: Treat others as you want to be treated.
