Why do you Kiteboard? Best high I’ve experienced in life. Nothing beats that feeling of relaxing after a 5 hour crankin’ sesh, body in bits and unable to move, its like an amazing drug!

What do you like about the new Flexifoil kites? Stable and powerful as hell. They are a nice simple setup, and the bar grip is the best around.

What gear are you using this year? Flexi Fusion 2’s, will probably get an Atom for the high winds and waves!

Sponsors? Flexifoil Kiteboarding, Underground kiteboards, Powersource Kitesurfboards

Most inspiring kiteboarders? Ruben Lenten, Andre Phillip, and Lou Wainman.

Your opinion on competition? Man the parties are crazzzzy! Great social gatherings, who cares where you finish on the podium!

Boardshorts over the wetsuit? Fo’ shizzle… Style man!

Favourite drink? Tea for sure… a decent average of 6 or more cups a day…

Best chat up line? Do people still use these!?

Favourite kiteboarding move? Kung foo’s! Big ones!

Worst kiteboarding injury? Smashed teeth but that wasn’t really till pack-up after kiteboarding… Blew out my neck muscles second day in eygpt, it still clicks when I turn my head from side to side!

Best excuse used in order to ditch work to go kiting?…I gotta go now…

Your best advice to newcomers in kiteboarding? Get lessons, learn the risks, and take advice from others, ride with style…
