Skydiving

On the 14th of June 1981, when I was 17 years old, I made my first two skydives at a small dropzone in the Netherlands (Paraclub Icarus, Hilversum airport). From that moment in time, skydiving is one of my biggest passions in my live. For me skydiving is total freedom and gives me lots of positive energy. I have skydived above many astonishing beautiful exotic places in 24 countries around the globe. Amongst others: Palau, New Zealand, Uruguay, Australia, Dubai, Brazil, Ecuador, Namibia, Thailand, Dominican Republic, the Philippines, Costa Rica, Maldives, and Belize. I have jumped from many different Aircrafts like a Cessna 172, DC-3, Twin Otters and Hercules transporters. Also from small Helicopters (Bell jet Ranger) up to the largest helicopter (Russian MI 26) of the world and from several hot air Balloons and paramotors.

I have jumped in 4, 8 and 16formation skydive teams and participated in several National, European and World Championships. Next to that I have been part of multiple National and Guinness World Skydiving records, many 100way and 300way formation skydives. Please enjoy the videos, pictures and stories you will find on this page. I am sure you will understand why I have such a great passion for this sport.

At the bottom of this page you will also be able to explore a map of the world with all locations I have made my (over 2500) great skydives. If you click on the icons you will be able to see and read several stories (adventures) behind.

Below you will see a map where I have been skydiving. If you click on an icon, you will find more information regarding a specific location. (work in progress)
