I really didn't know what to expect from a country like that.
I arrived in Kiev, got in a ten hour car drive with Alexander to the South.
We arrived at the place where a cool festival/event was set-up.
All the people set-up their tents on the beach and just camped there for the weekend!
Every evening there was a band playing and at day there was a Red Bull DJ spinning some decent tunes.
So I came there to do a demo, wind came up quite good and I gave a nice show with about 300 people watching. I love it when a crowd is watching, you just go mad and ride with a lot of energy.
I got really good feedback from the people and they loved the kiting…Not many people spoke English but I had a good time just feeling the good vibe.
Some good looking chicks as well, dammn…
Thank to all for showing me a good time in your country.
Peace!

When you traveling a lot then you’ve got to make sure you balance it out, for me, I need to be home so now and then to re-energize and catch up with my family and friends!
That’s what I love, riding at my homespot and just hang, chill and party with my buddies…After a while it’s time for action and I leave again to rip it up somewhere else around the globe.
The past 6 months have been quite hectic, traveling from place to place riding hard, photoshoots, testing gear, training blablabla…It’s all fun to a certain level, so that’s where I try and keep it!
I’ve got my own new crib here in Holland, loving it! My couch is my new best friend and had some quality chill time on it…☺
The other weekend I had such a good one, went wakeboarding in the morning, had an awesome sesh. Then the wind picked up in the evening and I had a killer sunset session at my homespot…
Then the next day I went to a sick party with a lot of my mates…Really enjoyed it!
Dj’s like Sven Vath, Richie Hawtin, Karotte and Ricardo Villalobos were rocking the tunes.
That’s what I like, it helps me through long flights as well when I listen to the live-sets from the party.

Sitting on the airport right now on my way back to Amsterdam, always good to go home...Moving into my new apartment will be great! Got some party lined up with my homies, time to chill...

It was a super good week with a fun crew throwing down hard on and off the water.
We did Sliders, which was a lot of fun, they had a huge Red Bull funbox. I only had one day on it, but looking forward to hit rails soon again.
Then we had the Slick session, which was a downwinder of like 9miles. With 3 stops on some epic flat/slick-water spots. Thbe wind was blowing alright i took out my new 7meter Fuel proto-type and did some kiteloops and shit. It was fun.
Then we had the Surf, but the waves were kinda small so we were just hanging on the beach drinking the usual beers.

They build some insane rails for us, so we just session that thing all together. It's so much fun to hit the huge Red Bull rail...
Adrenaline Driven...
