Something about Ydwer

"This book is about my journey. It’s more than just kitesurfing. It’s a beautiful mix of action, lifestyle, portraits and nature that I shot over the past decade.Featuring a variety of world class riders that became good friends throughout the years. Many of my photographs have been published world wide in magazines and advertisements, but this book contains a collection of work that mostly hasn’t been seen.The photos are bundled in a high quality hard cover photo book which will give you a feeling of kitesurfing photography you haven’t had before. In an increasingly digital world, a world flooded by short clips and tiny photos, this is my celebration to kitesurfing and my desired love for the elements.

In this book you will find riders like Ruben Lenten, Jesse Richman, Jalou Langeree, Nick Jacobsen, Matchu Lopes, Kevin Langeree and many more, riding in a variety of conditions in South Africa, Brazil, Indonesia, Madagascar, Australia and other places.

I teamed up with Oswald Smith who added some of his words to the book along with some of my personal pieces."
