In October 2018 I traveled to the UK for a reunion surf trip with my friends Sander and Vera. Vera lives in London, from there it is a 4-5 hour drive to the beautiful town of Croyde. At Croyde we stayed in a glamping hut, overlooking the surf. The first day the waves were too big for us and there was a heavy wind, the second day we tried and caught a couple of waves, but still had trouble taking off because of the heavy offshore wind spray blinding when trying to drop in a wave. On the third and last day however, the wind had dropped, the sun came through and the waves were as epic as they can be. At the end of the day I brought my camera out and took a few great shots!

This was the coldest day I have every surfed. The air temperature was -3 degrees celsius, the water temperature about 2 degrees. Wind from the North-East providing clean offshore conditions, but also caused the temperature to feel like -15 degrees with the windchill.

In the spring of 2017 I visited Australia and was able to surf at many different spots. A dream coming true!

In May 2016 over 150 members of Plankenkoorts travelled to the Cornwall region to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the student surf organization. Many waves were ridden, shared and wiped out on at different spots in the South-West of England.

Awesome summersunsetsession!

Instead of more pictures, I created a short film to give you an impression of the surftrip! Spring has started, which means longer days and hopefully many after work surfsessions!
