10. What was your personal surfing highlight?
There've been many... Right now I have two night sessions with good friends in my mind. Once we were at my home in Scheef, when the boys wanted to come over, but got into a huge traffic jam on the way... They finally arrived at 3 am. As we all were awake, we walked to the beach at full moon in the middle of the night and went surfing till dawn. The waves were magical (at least compared to what we are use to in Holland), chest-high and clean...
The second night session was also together with close mates. Last summer as the bars were closing, we decided to take advantage of the full moon and went surfing. We just wanted to catch a few ones, but ended up surfing perfect, overhead waves for about three hours, accompanied by a stoned guy with his drums who was watching our white traces in the water. It was like a movie. Hehe...
