Interview with Severin

Meet Severin Van Der Meer (aka Sevi), a young Swiss-German rider who is living the dream by sharing his time between the mountains for snowboarding and the lakes during summer to wakeboard.

I’m known to have a smile on my face, always trying to enjoy every moment as much as I possibly can. I love to hang out with my friends, but also enjoy quiet time.

I’ve snowboarded since I was a little boy, I pretty much grew up with it. But I never fully focused on it, I just went snowboarding on holidays and had a good time. Four or five years ago Ride asked me if I wanted to ride for them, which was a big motivation for me to learn new tricks and start going bigger. Around the same time a good friend of mine had started a wakeboard team and they were looking for new riders, so he asked me if I would be interested in joining them. No need to ask me twice! I started wakeboarding and so far I think it worked out pretty good.

I love to be in the mountains during winter and around the lake in the summer. There is nothing better for me at the moment. In snowboarding and wakeboarding it’s not all about being on a board. There is a lot going on around it, like hanging out with your friends and just having a good time!
It’s springtime now, so I’m really looking forward to snowboarding in the morning, then going to the Cauma See (the most beautiful lake on earth near Laax) for a bonfire, BBQ and music.

What is it about these two sports?
To have fun!

https://asperformance.com/uncategorized/ly1dzqi Do like one or the other sport more? Or in which would you like to succeed most?
I come from snowboarding, so that’s where my passion lies. But right now I enjoy the change from winter to summer. I don’t know how long I can do both sports at a high level. We will see what happens down the road. It’s always a surprise.

https://fotballsonen.com/2024/03/07/1eukmpezzw Do you feel that sports help each other in making you a better rider? and how?
For sure, because you have a board under your feet in both snowboarding and wakeboarding. And once you have good board control it’s all about being creative and trying new stuff.
It’s a challenge when you finished a good season. To start the new one is not always easy, but it’s always a pleasure and I’m looking forward to it.

Have you been injured because of one of these sports?
I was a lucky boy so far. I’ve never had a big injury. Get the facts about it from the experts to overcome it. Only minor setbacks like pulled muscles, and this season I got the record for red noses. But it’s all good!

https://www.mominleggings.com/wnda9m6 What’s your snowboard plan for the rest of the season and what is your summer wakeboard goal?
It’s gonna snow again next week so that’s probably the last powder week, and then spring session is the week after. Hell yeah! Afterwards Laax is doing a two week filming session so I’m looking forward to shred with the homies.
In wakeboarding I’m known as an all-round rider so I’m going to do three clips: whinch, cable and boat. I have a big project with SFTV – they’re doing a summer challenge / documentary about me – which I’m really looking forward to. So stay tuned and ride on!

See you soon on the lake Sevi.
And thanks Aaron for the sick pictures.
