FLOW Quattro – Highback Setup After succesfully moving back to Uden – after 5 years in Veldhoven – it was time to get back onto the boards and get some practice in! Even though it had been a good 1,5 months since the last session indoors at Montana, I decided to check out a new […]
Skateboarding has been a welcome distraction lately, especially since our normal snowboarding training grounds are totally focussed on earning the big bucks on skiers… On top of that it’s only a 10 minute drive from my current home location, but this will soon change to a 35 minute drive from my new home – Yes […]
Hopefully some of my readers can help me out here? Or point me in the right direction when it comes to jumping on the boxes or rails. When I started out trying to get on the boxes or rails, I wanted to make sure I’d be able to jump high enough ยป resulting in jumping […]
Like always in our training sessions one feeds of the other or gets inspired, motivated or pushed to step outside the comfort zone by the other. Last night was a perfect example of this as well… I had been postponing to try a 180 over the big kicker for a while now, but Jorg got […]
The choice of training reminded me of a song they used for a commercial: “Switch baby, switch baby“, so last night’s training I dedicated myself to riding switch. Usually Jorg rides parts of the evening switch and I usually train the stuff for my regular stance only landing stuff switch. When I see him doing […]
The winter season for the indoor centers is about to take flight, but beside the official kick-offs you can notice the change in weather conditions indoors as well.

…and I’m back!!! After a two week absense from the boarding scene, this week I was able to ride again. Monday I took this opportunity to go skateboarding with Jorg Jansen. So the skatepark @ Kasteellaan in Eindhoven, was our primary training grounds and it was time to practice the good old kick-flip trick. I […]
Last Saturday Jorg and I got the briliant idea of doing some skateboarding. The weather was superb and the location near Jorg’s house was ideal for some skateboarding. It has been a very long time since I had been boarding properly, but I almost forgot how much fun it was to do! Ofcourse the local […]
Whenever I go out to ride I seem to have a certain urge to try something new. This urge isn’t always around, but most of the time it’s a matter of giving into it or not. I was riding at Montana Snowcenter again with Marieke and after a good night of shredding I still hadn’t […]
Last week we had seen the preparations for the way Montana was re-organizing the slope with the features. They were still moving around with the big kicker and all the setup jumps hadn’t been properly groomed, but today we heard that all would be properly groomed and had enough freezing time to harden. Unfortunately the […]
