When and where did you start Wing Foiling?
I started Wing Foiling in August 2022 on the lake behind our house. That was on a 70-litre board and a 4,5 wing.
What’s your watersports history – from which side did you enter Winging?
From Windsurfing
What do you love about Wing Foiling?
The feeling you get from high rotating jumps is the best!
What’s your favourite conditions?
20 knots on the North Sea
What’s your top advice for a beginner?
Be on the water as much as possible, check the Duotone Academy App, start with a lesson at a foil school, don’t start with wing that is too small.
Boom or handles?
Boom, it gives me more options with one-handed tricks.
