Nonstop

May 7th, 2009

switch toeside fs 180The past 2 weeks at home have been better than ever, it’s been windy every day and last weekend I shared some huge kickers with Alvaro. Now I’m in Germany for a couple of days, had a shoot yesterday and in about a week I will fly to Antigua to make one of my biggest dreams come true: Shoot with ACL Productions! The crew of riders is gonna consist of Alvaro Onieva, Kevin Steen, Greg Norman, Jake, Dre and me. Elliot Laboe and Tracy Kraft are going to shoot film and stills respectively. Remember Autofocus, Ten4, Metropolis or Catalyst? All made and filmed by Elliot, he’s Kiteboardings Steven Spielberg! And my last Stance DVD Cover, that was Tracy! Check out this link for some ACL footage.

Leaving Cape Town

March 7th, 2009

supermanWoow, just noticed that I haven’t written anything in a while… here’s what happened since then: Just before Alvaro left some weeks ago we got to film quite a bit and had a sick shooting with Mario Moreno a couple of hours before Alvaros flight, then in his hurry, Alvaro managed to accidentally take my wetsuit and a fin with him, so since then I’ve been riding without wetsuit, haha. Just 2 days later Leander Vyvey moved into the apartment so the kiting and guitar practice continued. Other than that we joined forces with Kim Albrecht and Pile The King to check out Cape Town thoroughly by climbing the Table Mountain together the hard way (signs of DANGER, WARNING, etc. made us think twice about it but in the end we we’re happy about our choice cause we did not see any tourists on the way), visiting a Photographs Gallery and Museum and even eating some bavarian “Weisswurst” in the “Paulaner Biergarten” with ocean view.

My acting classes continued to be goood fun, the other day we had to choose a monologue to perform in front of the class and camera, I chose a monologue from Pitt in 12 Monkeys, where he plays a totally nuts guy, its awesome!

So I’m a bit sad about leaving next week, but also happy to see some friends and family back home in Spain again.

Another Dimension. Brazil

January 1st, 2009

silver sunsetOK, before I start talking about what’s going on in my life, happy new year to everyone out there reading this. Hopefully your dreams and wishes come true and you’re not waisting any minute of your precious life.

In Brazil Alvaro and I started a new video project called ‘Another Dimension’. After seeing what happened to our ‘Choice’ footage which we sent to Stance a while ago, we ourselves will edit and publish ‘Another Dimension’. We’re going to tour some more spots and try to get some nice 30 minutes together for you. Every stylish rider we meet on the way will be featured in our little movie, so far we recruited Kim Albrecht and Pablo a.k.a Frank for Brazil.

09 I will only compete in alternative style competitions and film film film. Bye bye PKRA.
