I’m joining the Pura Vida Fun Tour, which takes me to Las Terrenas, in the northeast of the Dominican Republic.

Jojo Caneiro and his partners Leif Leriche and Stan Mignon of Pura Vida invited some of world’s top riders to ride the beautiful beaches of Las Terenas.

A great trip with great people!

The Pura Vida team organized quad and waterfall tours before noon, since the wind does not start beofre that. Once the wind is up, the team took us to the beautiful beach “Portillo”.

A full video of the event will soon be on www.kiteforum.tv and all beach info will be shown on www.kitebeaches.com

For sure the place rocks!

Finally, after 3 months of working I had a session!

I went to Gruener Brink on the island Fehmarn, about 1.5 hours drive from my city Hamburg.

Conditions were as forecasted with 5-6 Bft (up to 20 knots). I took my 16 and a 128 board.

The weather was cloudy and we had about 15° air and water. I had a 4mm full wetsuit, no shoes etc. It was not cold at all and I felt very comfortable.

Everything was nice, but damn, it is unbelievable what a difference a wetsuit makes!

In Brazil I land most of my board-offs…but here not one single one! I had to laugh, since it amazed me what a difference the wetsuit makes. I’m sure many of you can confirm this.

Here a video of that day: CLICK

Anyway, back to work, since we are about to release the new kitebeaches.com Version 2.0!

And I’m still fighting the pain in the complete body…
