I was lucky the other day to get some new pictures again. The photographer is Paul Smyth. Thanks for taking the pictures. This time we went to Point Walter as the wind started coming from the east now. It seems that the windy season is over now. It is cloudy more often now and the wind keeps coming from the east. Hopefully the swell picks up a bit. Another Kitelife issue will be published during the next days with some nice stuff in it like travel story to Kenya and Ireland plus an interview with Xavier Rudd. Besides that boardway, the kiteschool I work during summer has made a nice teaser worth watching. There is also a bit of footage of me in it. So check it out.

There is this double page in a kiteboarding magazine of me. Funny enough though because they advertise for some spots around the world. This picture was taken at my homespot in Germany. Apparantely my homespot is the best in the world. Glad that this is offical now :)
Other than that, it’s really nice here in WA still. Yesterday we went to Xavier Rudd. Brilliant as usual and his new band rocks as well. Tomorrow is The Cat Empire on. Obviously I am living a great life at the moment. The swell also has gotten bigger. So surfing is a lot of fun. It is still windy everyday as well and my body is begging me for a break. But no chance. You have to take what you are given and that is perfect conditions at the moment. That’s it so far again.

A little update from Perth. It’s been super hot the last days. I reckon it’s been about 40°C everyday. That means that seabreeze kicks in everyday as well. So I could go kiting at Pelican Point the last days which is a super nice spot in the middle of the city. When you ride a bit further out on the river you can have a perfect view on the Perthian skyline. Just amazing. We also could use the last days to shoot a bit for the Kitelife Magazine. Just super sweet colours here. Plus the fact that there aren’t many people kiting on the river makes it just perfect. Training, if you wanna call it like this, has been going on really well. I could land some new tricks like a Late Mobe and S-Bend 3.
The swell has also picked up a lot. Today was about shoulder to head high. For me as a surf-idiot really scary. But good to see the guys ripping it really hard.
Next week there’s gonna be Xavier Rudd, The Cat Empire and The Beautiful Girls in town. I am really looking forward to seeing these bands again.
So far.. Now I have to get back to my English essays I have to write for uni. 2500 is way to much when there’s 40°C outside.
