Who am I ?
From early on I had the interest in joining the army. Because of this I decided to try and participate in the entrance test and in september of 2002 I was allowed to start my army career. First finishing my last 2 years of school in the army school 2KSOO in Zedelgem, close to Bruges.
After this period I followed my feeling and chose for a infantry course. When during this course the question came up if there where candidates to go and do the training to become Para-Commando, I wanted to give give it a try.
A not to be underestimated time in Marche les Dames and Schaffen was te be brought to a successful end in order to wear the coveted red baret. After a few though months was I allowed to sew the brevet of Para and Commando on my uniform, and proudly put on the red baret as well.
Jumping out of a plane as a Para-Commando equals jumping with a lot of equipment, a weapon, a 'static line' which automatically opens a round parachute and a not so soft landing. A exciting and thrilling experience for sure! But I was in search of something more...
In the spring of 2006 I went to the local dropzone Moorsele, to attend a AFF freefall course. Immediately hooked to the sport of skydiving, I started with 4way formation skydiving.
The Belgian army had a team which competed in this discipline: HayaBusa
After 6 years as a section commander in 3PARA and a tour in Lebanon and Kosovo, I was offered the possibility to become a Pro Athlete for Topsport Defense. This made it possible to do my passion of skydiving professionally, so ofcourse I accepted this chance with both hands. The skydive team HayaBusa had become world champion for the first time in 2014. At first I was the alternate of the team but at the end of 2014 I could start as a full member. Together with HayaBusa was I able to win world titles in 2016 - 2018 - 2021.
Apart from my job as Pro athlete for Topsport Defense, I am also husband and father, foodie and amateur photographer, who is not afraid to attack a city marathon or even better a long and tough ultra trail in the mountains.
