lauwersmeer



not very windy at the moment in holland,
in the autumn vacation I have been a week at the lauwersoog with a good friend of mine.

we had a lot of wind in that week!! sailing 4.1 firefly most of the time.
the spot is quit cool there, the wind was blowing offshore there so the water was really flat. it is also a well known speed spot! for the freestylers if you want to go switch speed surfing this is the spot!!!

so now waiting for some wind!

friends of friestyle


well friends of friestyle was a well organized freestyle event at Stavoren a surfspot at the ijselmeer.
good vibe at the event, nice dj mixing the music!
unfortunately no wind but, the organization decided to do a oldschool longboard freestyle competition. I was really fun! every one was making 360's like the was no tomorrow!!

I became 2nd at the old school longboard freestyle competition!


After that I went out with Manfred de Wit (JP/NP) to do a tow in freestyle session with a wakeboard winch. It was really cool with that winch, maybe I shout see if I can make one myself.

here are some pics of the tow in session:






thanks to Heleen Muijsers for the pics!!!

Dutch championships freestyle

well the first freestyle events in holland have been surfed!

at first king of the dam! the open dutch freestyle championships.
the level was really high! air flaka, shaka's and kono's were flying around!
I finished 5th.
I'm not really happy with the result because I know i can do better.
the wind was quiet okay but we had almost the whole day rain so I was really cold, I was on my NP firefly 5.3 and my JP freestyle 99, and the wind was pretty gusty some some times I was really well powered and some times I was pumping like hell to bust out a trick.

unfortunately because of the heavy rain I don't have any action pics.
But it was a really good organized event by team the bunch, with good atmosphere and a lot of action!
