So I was thinking about what to put on first. It's supposed to be a blog with pictures that I took.. But this first story with pictures is dedicated to all the nice people who took pictures of me on my board, and all the cool people I've met during my snowboard seasons!
Let's flip trough my seasons a bit. Well I started snowboarding on a dryslope in Holland back in '99. My mate Dobber took me for a practice course and we both got hooked.
This was a fun period to ride, cause we had a great atmosphere going at the dryslope. We didn't had many hours to ride because of time tables that were always in the advantage of the skiers somehow. But that made the riding even better because we were more stoked to go riding.
Let's skip some things. In the winter of (euh when was this) well after I graduated from College I went doing seasons in the french alpes..
On my first season I went to the 3 valleys(Val Thorens,FR) This was great fun, I was mainly riding off piste which was obvious cause there was a lot of fresh snow during the whole season.
On my second and third season(Including 2 summer seasons) I went to Les deux alpes(FR). Deux alpes is famous for it's great park and infamous for it's freeriding, so I became a park rat.
I even went back in the summers to shape the snowpark and to ride it ofcourse. I got injured pretty bad on my last winter season but things are better now..
My plans for the future are always changing since I don't really know where I'm going with snowboarding. Fact is that I still enjoy it more then anything in the world. That's why my next season is a fact. I'll be heading for the USA this time, Breckenridge, Colorado.
So what can you expect on this blog? Well mainly pictures that I took off my friends and pictures that my friends took of me.. I'll put a selection of pictures that people took of me the past couple of seasons along with this message. The next update will be a selection of pictures that I took from my friends skating, stay tuned.
Oh almost forgot to tell. Me and my mates started a new snowboard crew.. On the crew page that's going to be online soon, you'll find plenty of sick footage from the crew shreddin' the states.. ''Samurai pizza shreds'' is our name and chopping pizza slices with samurai moves while shreddin' is our game..tjoptjop!
