This movie is an absolute must see!! See movie In September 2008, me and my girlfriend Nanine were in Malaysia (Borneo). On our last week, we stayed on a smal island called Mabul. From here we dived 4 days near another island called Sipadan, which is a unbelievable fascinating Underwaterworld! Sipadan island is the top of a pinnacle which rises from a depth of 600 meters. Just 5 meters off shore, and there is a drop off, which goes 600 meters down. Allong this wall, there is a beatufull coral, lots of sharks, turtles and big schools of Baracuda’s. At a depth of 25 meters, there is also a cave, which is known te be the home for reef sharks and turles. Deeper in this cave, you will fiend skeletons of dead turtles.
The movie was made by a professional camera man, which we hired during our diving trip. He’s very experienced in filming with professional equipment, which made the movie an absolute must see!!

August-September 2007, me and my girlfriend Nanine travelled to Costa Rica. It was my first surfing trip after 3 months of physiotherapy, because of my knee operations. I had been looking forward to this moment for months, finally I recovered, and got into shape again.

I was not sure taking a long board with me, but I’m glad I did.
I Surfed half of the trip on a short board (6’7 , I’m not an expert), and the rest on a long board. Spots like Hermosa, Playa Grande, Playa Negra, Little Hawaii (Avelanes) were only possible with a short board. I surfed perfectly with a long board @ places like Witch Rock, Ollies point, Pan dolces (crazy memories!), Boca Barranca (Hell Yeh!!, Boca Barranca!!) and even Pavones. Although I have to admit, that it was not a big swell on those days.
