1st test of the Onboard Cam
Here is a small clip of the promised video shot in St. Peter during the Worldcup. I wanted to get the settings straight. Now in France and then in Fuerte and Teneriffe I will shoot a full movie with it, mixing it with all different angles and views... ENJOY!!!Julian Hosp GoPro Session from Marvin Horitani on Vimeo.

Really exciting news from Montpellier
The 10 days of the Worldcup in Germany flew by faster than ever before. There was wind every single day, awesome parties, and it just always feels great to meet old friends and check up on what they have been up to! Since I am done with my studies it also gives me more time to focus on a lot of new things...Continue reading Comments (0) 26.07.2010. 15:32

Kiteboarding Adventure Oman - The Video ... Finally ;-)
After almost a year, overcoming lots of obstacles, I finally managed to add together the little bit of footage we had filmed in Oman in June 2009. I did not wanna make a great video as Jac and me went there to get some fotostories for magazines, however we still wanted to capture some of the unique moments we had in this unbelievable nice country!My greatest appreciation goes to Alex from Kiteboarding-Oman as without him none of this unforgettable trip would have possible. I also wanna say thank you to Jac who always found time and energy to get out the videocam after heaps of fotosessions. Marvin helped me with the editing a little, so that at least it looked like a video ;-) And last but not last, Thank you all my sponsors Fone, Dakine, Sooruz and olook24.com, without your help, all my life and experiences would not have happened in first place!
I know that neither phots nor videos could ever properly show the actual story, but at least it gives you a short glimpse of it.... Before showing you the video, a short quote fort he day: Whenever you party, you will have a hangover, so the only solution: Never stop partying and enjoy your life full on! ;-)
Cheers from Bonaire

First Week in the paradise of Bonaire
This first week in Bonaire flew by like nothing!!! The island is simply a paradise! The wind blows non-stop, there has not been one second since I am here, that there were not at least 15 knots! Really cool, to know that the wind is waiting for you, and not you are waiting for the wind ;-)Continue reading Comments (2) 13.05.2010. 21:21
Bonaire - I am coming!
Since I paid all my dues at the clinic for this year (except for the exams at the end) I can focus almost soley on some kiteboarding projects. My upcoming one will be a Foto- and Videotrip to Bonaire, which is one of the ABC islands in the Caribbean. I will spend there 3 weeks with my girlfriend/photographer/kitecaddy Jac ;-) Bonaire, which has only been popular for windsurfing so far, has great potential, so I first wanna go there for 2 weeks to kite, and then 1 week for diving with some friends!Continue reading Comments (0) 07.05.2010. 08:29
New Logo
The last 2 weeks I was working for 10 hours a day at the clinic. In order to stay in shape I cycled back and forth for each 30 minutes... I think I could do the Tour de France now ;-) Marie from Piknetart redesigned a new logo for me, as the old one that Martin had designed some years ago had served its purpose by now. We did not want to change the basic shape too much, and keep the J and H, however we wanted it to get a more compact shape. I also wanna say thank you to my girlfriend Jac who had the great idea to integrate the ECG wave into the H. The medical part of my life is very important and it surely shapes my character, so I wanted it to also be part of my logo!This weekend I will be flying to Switzerland, to get some crazy flying done... lets just say my new title will be HON ;-) Next week I will be back at the clinic for some more days and then I am off to Bonaire in the Caribbean. After that I will give the Dakine Headquarter in Hood River another visit. I will give you my next update next week with sick pictures and more infos from Bonaire!
Cheers

21h Bus Trip from Barcelona to Innsbruck
The last day in Egypt was really aswesome. I had a sick session just perfect on the 7qm Bandit3 right before I had to leave for the airport to catch my flight. All my tricks worked out great, and I even landed a 6-7m high Kiteloop-Hooked-In-2-Hooked-Out-Handlepass, a trick I havent managed to land in quite some time. My hair was still wet when I entered the plane, as I just didnt wanna quit my session ;-)Continue reading Comments (0) 21.04.2010. 12:45
