What do you use our boards for: As a passionate kite surfer, I started wing foiling in the spring of 2021 and have remained loyal to the element of water in combination with foils. A year later, all I needed was a pump foil board, allowing me to practice two sports with the foil. And yes, I am now a retired kite surfer.

What are your favorite spot(s): My home spots are Lake Greifen and Lake Pfäffiker. I often spend time with my family at Lake Como in the spring and summer, and we also go to Silvaplana and Porto Pollo at least once a year.

Your craziest, best, funniest, or most adventurous ride ever: I love it when the water is super flat without waves, and I can leave my "trace" in the water.

Other hobbies when you’re not on the water: Family, nature, and reading.

Your goal this year: To expand my repertoire of starts so that I can become more versatile in my launches.

Tell us about a personal achievement: Pump foiling is a process. The learning curve was initially more of a learning straight line. Through many videos, inspiration, and feedback, I improved. The milestone of one minute was an "emotional" thing that I will never forget. During this journey, I met many fascinating and inspiring people within the community.

Your favorite quote: Everyone wins when a leader gets better.
