It has been good conditions for the first day of the official Snowkite World Cup and German Championship. Not really a lot of wind but still enough to get the freestyle heats done.  Yesterday they have canceled the freestyle discipline in my heat, so I had to compete first today. I continued to the semifinals successfully. There I met on Remi Meum the snowkite champion of 2009. This guy is killing it. It was a pleasure to ride with him. He did a sick KGB grabed and a lot more stylish tricks. In this first snowkite contest for me I rode my best heat against Remi, doing a fs 360 indy, bs 360,  s-bend to blind, kiteloop to wrapped, fs boardslide 360,  slim chance and frontmobe. I lost but still have been stoked of the session. In the loosers final I met on Oli Panny a team budy from Liquid Force. A really nice guy, who rides with a lot of power and super stylish.  We both rode the envy and had a lot of fun shreding the obstacles and kickers. At the end I got third. Hopefully the wind will pick up tomorrow to have another sick day on the snow.

The first days on the new 010 material have been awsome. Riding in bright turquoise water and sunshine, wearing boardshorts only  -  i like! Around afternoon the wind dropped – we all didn’t like-  so we switched from waves to dunes and had a fun session on sand.

The low-pressure region “Daisy” brought along a lot of wind. We started our trip on the wasserkuppe and rode the first insane session. The day after, Daisy was too strong, took all of the snow and blew it away, so we continued driving north heading towards Winterberg. All of the crazy pictures will be in the next Kiteboarding . Don’ t miss it…
