YOUR HOBBIES ASIDE KITEBOARDING?

Wakeboarding, snowboarding, skateboarding

WHAT DO YOU DO ON A DAY WITHOUT WIND? 

I’d like to say I’m travelling around but honestly working and editing on my computer.

WHAT STYLE OF MUSIC ARE YOU INTERESTED IN? 

I don’t have specific preferences, almost everything instead of pop songs.

WHY ARE YOU RIDING FOR DUOTONE?

It’s the best gear and people, I’ve never seen people who loves kiteboarding so much. And together we can make the best equipment in the best working conditions.

WHAT IS YOUR MAIN GOAL FOR THE FUTURE?

To ride and compete as good as possible regardless on the water, snow or park and realize interesting ideas.

WHAT TRAINING DO YOU DO TO STAY FIT? 

Kiteboarding makes almost everything what we need to stay fit, but with stretching in the morning and warming up before every session is even better.

WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN YOUR JOB IF YOU WOULDN´T BE A PRO KITEBOARDER? 

It is hard to say, I’m happy that kiteboarding took me over :)

WHAT´S YOUR FAVOURITE FOOD? 

Grilled zucchini and burgers!

WHAT DID YOU ALWAYS WANT TO SAY?

Shred for all meatballs! It means ride as hard as you could
