Kites because:
I saw a lot of riders in the water and I liked it and I want to learn it too. The reason: I was infected! When I started kitesurfing I hadnt great conditions like warm water, summer etc. I was in danmark on an isle called "Romo" in April. My dad wanted to show me how and what kitesurfing is. I was really excited and I needed to learn it.. so the bad conditions didnt stop me..
In the water I practiced all that body-drag stuff with a 3 qm softkite or stunt kite.. and the water temperatur was something like 3 too.. it was super cold but I was super happy after that training day.. On the next day I learnt to handle it with a tubekite. After that I learnt to ride with a board pretty fast..
Yes and then I got some tip for learning to jumb and I was pushed by some german riders.
I continued...:
Because..I love kiting, because I’m having a lot of fun in the water every minute...And I just enjoy that feeling in the air and to practice new tricks and I like the crashes along the way too. Its perfect to train in super nice conditions like flat water, wind for 7 or 9 and to feel the warmness from the sun...pretty good!
Dislikes:
wild cabbage, olives and people who are stressed out!
Listens to:
Some nice pretty good music.. Music is a part of my life!
I wake up with music and I usually fall asleep with music or its especially the last think I listen before I am going to sleep.. I listen to all sorts of music. Its up to my mood and I prefer or love music like HipHop, RnB, House and Rock... Jack Johnson, Arctic Monkeys, Alice in Videoland and so on..
Occupation:
I’m still in school. I have to study one an half year more then I will got my Abitur.. like my german university entrance qualification!! But after that I really want to study in another country!
Stuff:
The label Protest is supporting me with super stylish clothes and also a nice wetsuit! I’m getting shorter clothes for the hotly summer and in winter clothes who keep me warm. Otherwise I use my wetsuit in the water and also the bikini..
Any software for my mobile?
Yes for sure. I am using “Flobbi” a software for mobiles. I can see whos around me! They have some specials and I save costs for text-messaging within a specific distance 20-30 meters.. From this follows a walki-talki function.. Super nice in the snow!!
Which kites do you use?
I’m riding the Best 2007 Yargas and I am still waiting for the Yargas 2008!!
Why do you use that kites?
I love that kites since the beginning. They are good processed, fast, powerful and a nice direct attitude.... I rode that older ones from 2006 and I was really happy about that kites! And the pink color on all that kites are super nice and beautiful...
What board/ boards do you use?
I am still using my Drive 125/ 39. This size is perfect for me, the pads and straps are perfect for my little feet. I got some nice hold or footing!! I like it to ride with that one. Unfortunately I its not pink, but I also like the effectual blue... you can lose yourself by looking on it :-)
Overall:
Take a kite lesson in a certificated kite school..Listen, practice, be rational, be brave, be infected and rock!!! And please, use your brain, its not important to behave like a macho in some situations where the nature is going to kill you with her power and all that high-pressure weather!! ( a little straight tip)
Please keep me well informed :-P
Have fun and go rocking....
