Maybe you already heard about it, but as I’m a little bit within organizing this event, I should promote it here as well. Facts about it are written down at the-gap-magazin.com or for just basic information in English on the TTR-Homepage.

Parts of the poster and flyer are photos I took. I had a short shooting with Simm, for the main motive and we used a quite old shot of Tobi Rittig I took 2007 at the Thulba Take Out . I always wanted this one to be printed, that’s why I’m happy, that we used it for the wakeboarding side of the poster. It’s part of my gallery, but I wanted to show it here, too. Hopefully Tobi is also happy about it. Hope to see you at Thulba on 10th of July!

It’s already one week, since it took place, but maybe there happened exactly, what one of the initiators, Flo Suess, is saying about this event: “If you do remember the WakeUp Camp, you haven’t joined!” Maybe a little bit exaggerated, but definitely true in it’s core.

WakeUp Camp at Langenfeld is one of the seasons highlights. It’s probably the biggest meeting of the german cable scene, just to party, ride and of course drink together! Last weekend I joined for the first time and my expectations where beaten.

I didn’t ride as much as planed and even didn’t shot that much, too. But in the end it was a perfect weekend, with my Rope-Addicts-friends, some well known faces and even some new. All together a great time! I added some pictures, which where shot at the photo-sessions. The guys had built a nice setup for the winch-session, but my best idea came to my mind, when I where selecting my shots back at home. Unfortunately there won’t be a session again on this spot, because it’s already history, due to German environment policies! Sad but true!

Finally I had a way too short shooting with Marvin and his new friends. Maybe you get a smile on your face while looking at the pic, as I had, while shooting. Marvin is a nice guy and one of my favorite riders at the moment.
