About Julian

Julian started kitesurfing when he was around 12 years old when he was dealing with some mental problems and people showed him ‘kitesurfing’. When he saw it he immediately knew that that’s what he wanted to do from that moment on. He’s focused on getting better and better and still loves it every session.
