Christian, a kitesurfer who is not afraid of anything
We're back to our routine and that means our interviews are back too. Today we bring you the story of Christian (@kikosan96 on Instagram), a kitesurfer who isn't afraid of anything and who, just like us, makes the most of his experiences. As he says... "Life is a wave, you have to paddle as hard as you can."
Without a doubt, and like some of our previous interviewees , this could be a definition that fits with what our #STOHKTAMAZING family's philosophy dictates: LOVE SHARING YOUR LIFESTYLE WITH OTHERS AT AN UNFORGETTABLE MOMENT.
When we met Christian, the first thing he told us was that he was moving around Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria, Italy and soon Fuerteventura doing kitesurfing and other sports that make his heart race. All this inspired us to such an extent that we decided to dedicate one of our LIMITED EDITION T-SHIRTS to him. Without a doubt, our STOHKT 0823 TEMPORARY is for him and for all those people who face life with enthusiasm.
And now yes... we begin!
Christian, a kitesurfer who is not afraid of anything
Q: What do you do?
Smart working, kitesurfing, skateboarding, snowboarding, calisthenics and playing basketball.
Q: How do you define your lifestyle?
Radical. If I start to like something, I let it kill me.
Q: What do you want to convey with your lifestyle?
Vita Bona. The good life in Latin. I want people to recognize me as a happy person because of the little I need. A windy beach and a plate of pasta carbonara.
" Life is a wave, you have to paddle as hard as you can"
Q: What sets you apart from the rest?
I believe that a person cannot define themselves. Therefore, I quote a phrase that someone once told me and that fit my personality quite well. "Restless ass." I don't like to sit around doing nothing, my body asks me to move all the time.
"I want to be recognized as a happy person for the little things I need: a windy beach and a plate of pasta carbonara"
Q: Tell us a story about your beginnings, lifestyle, sport you practice or your life in general.
When I was 13, I spent my summer days in my uncle's surf shop. Many people thought I was crazy because there's not much to do in a shop every day. But I actually liked everything about this surf shop, the products, the boards, the swimsuits, the t-shirts... Even the surf video that was shot 130 times a day.
When there was a schedule, we would close a little earlier and go to the beach. One day my uncle wanted to go buy a sandwich and so he left me alone in the store for about 15 minutes. The moment he left the door, two customers came in and they hadn't even noticed that I was alone. So since I already knew everything, I served them, which led to them buying quite a few items.
My uncle freaked out when he saw the customers already at the checkout waiting for someone to pay them, since the only thing he didn't know was how the checkout worked haha. So, I will never forget this day, I got paid in Skullcandy headphones. Awesome.
"My lifestyle is radical. If I start to like something, I let it kill me."
Q: What would you say to all those who love to share their lifestyle with others?
Whatever you do, do it with all your might and without fear of losing anything. Life is a wave, you have to paddle as hard as you can.
That's it for our interview with Christian. Remember that if you also want to share your lifestyle with others, you can tag us with our clothes on social media and we will share it.
