Its slowly becoming a tradition that around this time of year, most of the best windsurfers in the world gather at the local spot of Jinha Beach in Korea to battle it out at the greatly organized Ulsan PWA worldcup. This year I left Europe just to arrive the night before the event as I have been to this spot several times before and do not need further introduction. I planned it out perfectly with my sleep timing and by the time I hit the bed in Jinha beach the night before the event it did not take a long time before I was asleep and woke up fresh on the morning of the race day. Game ready in Korea.!! As the weather forecast had promised we got the wind in the afternoon and before we knew it we were out there ready to race. We had the wind coming in from the...

During the winter, all of this excitement gets built up for the first worldcup event of the year. Who is going fast and who is not? Who improved and who did not? All of these questions were to be answered at this years first PWA event in Italy. I arrived there a couple of days earlier together with my friends Ross and Gonzalo to work on some last minute tuning before the competition would kick off. The beautiful view of Sicily The days went by and the event kicked off, just with one minor detail missing,, the wind. And so was it to be the next many days. The weather just didnt play ball, and we were forced to sit around waiting for what seemed to be a maraton waiting game. Finally at the end of day 5, a sudden thermic wind kicked in, and surprisingly enough, it...

The fun times are over and its game time. And ohh did the times fly. As of now I am breathing in the fresh spring time air of Copenhagen. Yes I have made my way back “home”, and even though it feels like a breath of fresh air, I still look back at an amazing winters where there has been lots of free time and of course lots of good times. New year, new people, new style and new mindset. I feel like lots of things have changed over the winter, and I have found a good flow to stay focused and combine all aspects in my life that basically makes up who I am as a person. My buddy Dan on a very windy day on Maui. On the windsurfing side, there has been lots and lots going on. Maui has shown itself from it usual side and delivered winds for sailing everyday,...

Ohh man its going fast now. The relaxing month of January is over, February went by in a breeze, and here I am mid march in the thick of it all. Time is going so fast now that its hard to even keep track, but now is the time where everything needs to fall into place preparation wise before the competition season kicks off. I guess once again, the time just flies by when you are having a great time. I feel it has gone too fast though. I almost feel like I would like to turn it back couple months and slow it down, but then again, there is a whole new exciting season coming up which I cant wait to get started with. All in all everything seems to be good at the moment. On the way to Maui with my Buddy Weber. A quick pit stop at Venice Beach. Since I last was on...

Wicked times, is the least to say about the first month of the year for me. Now for everybody who knows me, I have been very much under the radar since the beginning of the year. Not because there hasnt been things going on, but I always have a period of time in the winter where I prefer getting all my thoughts together and figure out what the new year is going to bring for me. It is also the time where I work on getting all my sponsorships in place, so that I can continue living out my dream job for the future years to come. Obviously the first big news for me, that didnt require the biggest of sharing, was that I will be working closely together with Simmer Sails for another year, which makes me super happy. These guys have been there for me since the beginning...

Ohh man how times just fly. I can without a doubt say that this year has been among the most eventful and fun years of my life. Even though there has been tough times too, the good ones outweigh them by far. I have been around the globe for competitions and events, and met more new friends. I have met some of my family that I havent seen in years and gotten them closer into my life than before. All in all I feel that it has added up to being truly a great year. Competitions and results aside, I feel that I have been able to live and perform more towards my full potential, and for next year I hope to push those boundaries on all aspects. KK on top The best thing about this year is definitely the people that I have met around the world. People with great passion...
