Chief editor surf
Andreas was born in 1962 and grew up in Osnabrück. He became passionate about windsurfing as early as 1974, when he learned to tack and jibe at one of the first surf schools on the Baltic Sea. Lake Dümmer became the favorite playground of his youth for him and his friends. In 1988, he joined Surf Magazin as a tester and later editor and was lucky enough to be able to turn his passion into a career. Andreas has been responsible for the magazine's content as editor-in-chief since 2002. His favorite spots are those on the Danish North Sea and Baltic coasts.
