Finally I’m back home after this amazing trip to

Finally I’m back home after this amazing trip to the @gkakiteworldtour in Sylt. I’m so stoked about making it to the third place!!! The conditions were very light, sometimes even on the edge of what is possible. It was time to dial in all those nearly forgotten light-wind-tricks! No big jumps, no kiteloops...surely challenging!! Huge congratulations to @kiketroigtorres for taking the win and to @airtoncozzolino for showing that whatever the conditions are, he is delivering!
Thank you GKA and @kitesurfworldcup for making this event possible! Thank you Sylt for the support on the beach, @dpcinterntaional for the gear support AND Last, but surely NOT least: THANK YOU to all my sponsors! Without you ALL this would not have be possible:

@gkakiteworldtour QATAR AIRWAS BIG AIR TARIFA: I managed to get into the final and ended in 4th position. Happy about my fourth place but disappointed about my performance during the final. I failed and didn’t land my tricks. Huge congratulations to @jamesscarew for taking the win (and a speedy recovery), @2muchsend for his second place and @kiketroigtorres for his third place, WELL DESERVED!
I wish @airtoncozzolino, who missed the final due to an injury, a speedy recovery!

ATTENTION📣: I am thrilled to announce that I have a new sponsor on board, and they are none other than @coast.classics

Based in Estepona, Coast Classics is an independent classic car restorer and well-known in the European classic car scene. With this sponsorship, they continue their mission of bridging the gap between the old-school world and the present, balancing the past and the future.

During my shoot with their team last weekend, I was blown away by the amazing classic cars they have. Coast Classics brings the magic of the good old times into the team, and together with my other sponsors' top technology, I am more than prepared for the upcoming 2023 competition season.

I am incredibly proud and honored to have Coast Classics as a part of my team. Their support is a huge opportunity for me and a further step into the world of professional kitesurfing.

I guess, that getting my driving license done, is now a top priority! Let’s see if they're truly committed to the cause! Will they let me take one of their vintage cars for a spin? I promise I won't go too fast! 😉

Thank you, Coast Classics, for your support and belief in my passion. I am excited about the possibilities that this partnership will bring, and I am looking forward to seeing what the future holds for us. I can't wait to get started and make this year one to remember!
