Dutch Championship Kitesurfing 2011
The weekend of October 22nd/23rd the NK Kite would be a fact. But the wind was absent! There was a lot of chilling on the beach. The pizza's of Domino's were great. On Sunday I had to ride a heat against Jonno Scholten at 10 hr. It was a pity that the public and the jury didn't have any binoculars! We were on our way to England and saved by the rescue boats. The Championship was closed with a heat between Youri Zoon and Kevin Langeree for dutch television SBS6.

Summer session 2011
After 2 weeks riding in the Kite Tour Europe, Germany and Italy, I went with my family to the South of Spain; having a nice time, doing some training and take time for relaxing in Tarifa and my favorite spot Sotogrande.The circumstances were super chill. We did a lot of filming and I just put my video on You Tube.

KTE Italy (Lamezia)
After a long trip, all the way from Sylt, Germany to Lamezia, south of Italy, in 3 days, we arrived in Lamezia.
It's warm and the wind is another story than in Sylt!!
Yesterday was registration day.
Today they started with course racing.
After this, freestyle started. The wind left and it was very difficult to perform in my heat. After my heat they canceled the game...Let's see what tomorrow will bring!
The other days were the same. Apparantly the wind in Lamezia is an thermical wind, every day during 2 to 3 hours, it builds up when it is very hot. During windy times we went with several kiters to do trainings sessions and for me that was great and I learned a lot.
In the end they couldn't finish the contest; there was no wind left for the finals! But for me it was a great experinece!
