One week israel, two weeks sardinia and three weeks
west of france. Seeing friends, surfing all kind of
waves, windswell and groundswell in all sizes.
After every trip, back to CH to organise stuff for

The waves are sometimes perfect, too.

Dave Gisler does the first ascend of Kiana 8B in Engelberg!
It is a steep 6 mover line on tiny crimps, with a savage crux.
Dave thinks it is an 8A+/B, but in the end its Barti who writes
down the grades into www.boulderberg.com :)
Barti cleaned the line in 2003 and in 2005 they started to
work on Kiana. Last year Dave was already very close to
send it and Chris from Wales climbed the stand start 8a
... today was the day ... yepeah!
20. august 2007
There was a lot of rain in the last two months over Switzerland. So there
was not much climbing to do. Barti went looking for waves around Lucerne
and found heaps of static waves. Most work only once or twice a year though:)

2 months in switzerland, 2 months away from the ocean.
But there is the swiss river surfing on the standing wave
of bremgarten. Such a good community. The wave is tiny
and the people are so psyched to ride it. They gave me
a complete new view on surfing again.
9. july 2006
The last 4 months have been the most beautiful of my life.
I had the chance to live the here and now wherever I was.
Wherever I was I felt like home. Now I am home and the
happiness goes on cause the wave of life is everywhere.
Surf it everyday and drop in into life, don't hold back
cause you might drown in boredom.
3. march 2006
It has been a long time since the last change of this page.
Finally i have time again to document the travelling. It is
good to be able to live the dream again.
