He is a “foil native”: his first kite with 6 years was a FLYSURFER foil kite and by the age of 11 he already competed in his first hydrofoil pro race. He regards the professional support and innovative drive of the FLYSURFER team the basis of his success.

“It is only those who have won with integrity and care, over an extended period of time, who have become universally regarded as successful.”
