Wakeboarding in Bossuit Belgium Wakeboarding on a cable is much more interesting lately due to all the obstacles rising out of the water. But still, nothing is better then riding behind a boat
that sets up a big wake for you alone.Together with my buddy Rens and my girl Evelien I payed a visit to the wakeboardschool from Christoph Meersschaert in Bossuit Belgium. Water like a mirror and no other boats on the water to mess it up. Super cool and ideal for a nice session. Check the video here or click left tag

My buddy Sven and I have been creative and produced a couple of sitski animationsclips. Check them all out, download them and send them to your friends! more clips Eurocup final Ravascletto The I had my last race of the season in Ravascletto Italy. On the steep sloop of zoncolan I competed in all 3 events. I still have troubles to find confidance in my new equipment and during the race I performd bad on the slalom and the GS. Sunday on the Super-G I found the right flow and became 16th, 6 sec behind the top 3. With a result of 108 asd points is the SG in Zoncolan my best result so far. A good end of a bad season, "that gives hope for next season". Eurocup Abtenau The
second race of the season took place in Abtenau Austria. this weekend
started even more atheletes then last week. Beside that there was a lot
of snowfall and hard wind, wich made some real heavy conditions to race.
The 1st day on the slalom I had bad luck and did not finish the first
run. The next day would be a GS day. Cause of the bad weather the GS race
was cancelled and rescheduled to sunday instead of the super-G. On sunday
I became 18th on the GS, it's not a top result, but it satisfied me for
now and give me more trust in my new equipment, something I could use
afther last weekend. Eurocup Pitztal From 9 till 11 december I had my first races of the season in Pitztal (At). With more then 60 monoskiers from all over the world at the start the race could be compared to a worldcup. My first results didn't satisfy me; in slalom and GS I didn't make it to the finish and in Super-G I became 29th. Hopefully it gets better next week in Abtenau where the 2nd race will be helt. Training in Stubai
After
Tignes, Russell Docker, Sean Rose and I travelled to Stubai where we had
