PWA Fuerteventura 2015
The first day of the PWA Freestyle Fuerteventura World Cup saw extreme conditions, with wind speed up to 40 knots and extremely choppy waters, everybody had to push their limits to the fullest. I was using my Severne Freek 3,6 and SWAT 3,3, together with my Starboard flare 81. I was happy to show consistent heats landing spocks, grubby, flaka’s, shaka’s, loops and more. After loosing the semi-final against an amazing sailing Sarah-Quita I was happy to win the losers …

Over the winter I have been training as much as possible to up my freestyle level. During the periods at home, I unfortunately didn’t have a lot of wind and had to focus on school. Luckily I had some good wind during the first week of the christmas holiday at Brouwersdam. As there was no more wind in the forecast for Brouwersdam any more and a lot of wind predicted in Leucate, we drove there to have some good days …

Hi! I didn’t plan going to go to Sylt at first, as I thought the price giving would not be in Sylt this year.

Read moreNaxos, august 2014
The PWA calender is finished for the overall ranking freestyle women. The only event left for this year is the indoor in Poland. The indoor in Poland doesn’t count for the overall ranking, which means that my overall 3rd place overall is for 99% sure… Why 99%?, well there still is the event in Margarita on the PWA calender, but as the political issues don’t seem to have changed, it is not likely that the event will be organised in …

Read moreSardinia, May 2014
Hi, I finally have the time to write a report from my trip to North Sardinia. I had a super nice 3 weeks in Sardinia with a lot of new moves, crashes, pain, laughs and happiness. Did a lot of windsurfing, supping, relaxing and more! The first week I did the clinic of the Next Generation Project. The wind wasn’t the best, but good enough for nice sessions. Most days I used my 4.8. I learned a lot. I improved …
