Team
Through the longboard Camp you will be guided by a sensational team. The four coaches have been practising the sport for many years and already had successful careers. All four are experienced in teaching and have already worked at various camps. Read further to meet the trainers:
Deborah Keser
Trainer, Cologne.
Deborah Keser is a trainer and also the founder of the camp. Her focus is on technical combinations of dancing steps and tricks. Deborah loves to create dancing lines with the most fluid connections possible. Her carving and smooth riding style make her look very casual. Deborah has been longboarding for over 10 years. During her longboard career, she has also picked up different jobs. Deborah loves passing on her knowledge to others and supporting them in their progress, and has been been offering her own courses in the Cologne area through her own website since 2021.
Sven Schiefer
Trainer, Zurich.
Sven Schiefer has been skating since the age of 6 and is absolutely unique in his style. He is known in particular for his infinitely long spins (turns on one truck), which he can perform gracefully in every conceivable position and in every direction. Sven is also pretty good at freeriding thanks to his home town of Zurich. When Sven speeds through the city, he never loses control, no matter what the speed. Sven also regularly takes part in freestyle contests. With his style, he has managed to break into this discipline, which is actually attributed to skateboarding. In addition to his skills, Sven has a deep understanding of all kinds of movement sequences.
Tobias Holtgräwe
Trainer, Cologne.
Tobias Holtgräwe is born in Cologne and lives here. Tobias is an extremely technical dancer who turns everyone’s head with his many pirouettes. Tobias has always been ahead of his time and has already been doing the kind of steps that are in vogue today a long time ago. But when it comes to tricks and manuals, Tobi is unstoppable, he is simply an all-rounder. Tobias is more the quiet type who likes to observe and analyse. He doesn’t just look at your feet, but at your entire body. Tobias is particularly subtle when it comes to analysing your posture, he finds the smallest postural errors and helps you to correct them.
Philip Baumann
Trainer, Hamburg.
Philip Baumann comes from Hamburg and has a very broad base in longboard dancing. His buttery smooth style lets him float across the concrete. He combines a wide variety of dancing steps with tricks in a playful and technical way. Phil is very creative and can perform with any board – whether longboard, dancer or skateboard. For him, the city is a playground. Beyond his skating skills, Philip is known for his warm-hearted nature. Curiosity and a keen interest in other people characterise his nature, which is why people rave about him even beyond the camps.
