Snowfest 2010

February 2nd, 2010 | Posted in Events, Snow

Another year, another great party in the Swiss Alps. As usual, Laax was host to the Dutch Championships Snowboarding 2.0: Snowfest. A new name for the same good ol’ fun: boarding, parties, the occasional rail, contests and some more pratying to top things up.

A small selection of the week can be found in this slideshow,

Happy New Year!

January 2nd, 2010 | Posted in Events, Scuba

Just had to upload these two quickly, taken from the infamous Unox Nieuwjaarsduik 2010 (click here for 2008 and 2009). This year turned out the best from the three tries I’ve done so far in making these images with my drysuit and underwater camera. More shots later today or enjoy me at work (20:21) in this item at the main RTL4 News for January 1st.

Dutch Champs in AD Newspaper

February 28th, 2009 | Posted in Events, Publications, Snow

Seems that quite a few people like that Alwin de Quartel photo, it turned up in the Algemeen Dagblad Newspaper last week at an article on the Dutch Ski Champs. Came out as a very nice article and I was happy to see all these images used so nicely.

Korea World Champs: Final Images (Half-Pipe & Big Air)

January 24th, 2009 | Posted in Events, Snow

The Hyundau Sungwoo Resort in Gangwon.

Some final images of the past two days before I leave for Switzerland Tomorrow.
Yesterday’s half-pipe saw some amazing action but the light was horrible for photography. Still managed to pull a few nice shots, especially from the winner Ryoh Aono from Japan.

Ryoh Aono 2x

If yesterday was cold, today was Arctic. With heatpockets in both hands I managed to keep my fingers a bit above freezing temp but the conditions weren’t as nice as they were in the first few days. Guess we saw it all this week: full sun, biggest snowfall in 20 years and freezing windy icechills to end the week with.

Last contest was the Big Air which had horrible angles from all sides so no real great images here too. Perhaps tonight for the finals things will be nice with my slaves and all the lamps they’ve put up at the jump.

David Mol (close-up) and Pim Stigter (action)

That’s it for this amazing Korean week, what a great place for such a contest. I’m off, Laax (Switzerland) is next… see you after the weekend.

Korea World Champs: Half-pipe & Big Air

January 22nd, 2009 | Posted in Events, Snow

Some more shots of todays action: the half-pipe contest which sadly turned out to be a bummer for Dolf van der Wal (missing the finals by 2/10 points on a disputable judging score). Some nice shots even though the waether was a bit bleak.

The nights Big Air practice turned out to be fun again while stressing the camera to the limits, using the high ISO range and two slave flashes. Happy with the results and ready for the contest the day after tomorrow.

Korea World Champs Snowboarding: freestyle coming up!

January 21st, 2009 | Posted in Events, Snow

Todays carving action wasn’t too succesfull for Nicolien either but fortunately I was able to do some decent freestyle shooting today. First some shots at the half-pipe (in between parallel slaom heats) and then some difficult shots with slave-flashes at the nightly big-jump practice session.
