SWIM ON! KEEP GOING!

Video of the "20 bridges swim" in New York
How did it come, that the idea grew in me to swim through the different canals of the world? I was looking for a sport that I enjoy – how many other children too. From ballet to athletics, I've tried everything. I took my first swimming course at the age of five and immediately knew: This is my sport!

From this day I trained every day and on weekends I swam competitions and finally ended up in the German championships. At every training session, in every competition I tried to reach my limits - that was a great feeling!

At the age of 18, I found a book again, which impressed me when I was a child. I realized that that was exactly what I wanted to do. The story was about an impressive open water swimmer who has crossed the English Channel and other channels around the world. I decided to do that exactly that and from this day on I trained for it. Shortly after my training changeover I wanted to try a first target in open water: In June 2014 I took part in the Lake Constance latitude crossing. After 2.5 hours I arrived at the other side of Lake Constance. So the first milestone for my career as an open water swimmer was set.

In July 2018 I reached another big personal and sportive success: I was the first German to win the legendary "20 Bridges Swim" in New York. And there are many other channels in this world who are waiting for me.

TOGETHER FOR MORE FREEDOM AND SAFETY IN WATER

Special edition of Restube classic now available at Sansibar

Sansibar, the famous restaurant on Sylt, has recently added Restube classic to the assortment in its own shop. The North Sea is known for stormy gusts, rough waves and strong currents. Restube offers vacationers and athletes more freedom and safety on and in the water. Because Restube gives additional buoyancy in seconds, if needed.

The crossed sabers – the striking trademark of Sansibar – adorn the special edition of Restube classic. For Niklas Seckler, junior manager of Sansibar, Restube is an absolutely worthwhile addition to the Sansibar range, which also includes culinary delicacies, lifestyle products and a textile collection. “The safety of our guests is very important to us. With Restube we offer an absolutely meaningful product that could save lives“, says Niklas Seckler.
