With over 30 years of experience in the boating and marine industry, Momentum was founded on a genuine passion for life on the water. As a lifelong wakeboarder, dedicated sailor, and committed family man, I’ve built my career around the worlds I know best—watersports, recreation, and marine innovation.

Throughout three decades on and around boats, I’ve worked closely with manufacturers, dealers, distributors, and customers across Europe. This hands-on industry knowledge allows me to bridge the gap between brands and the European market in a practical, authentic, and highly effective way.

My passion for watersports goes far beyond business. Whether it’s wakeboarding with friends, racing sails in tough conditions, or spending weekends on the water with my family, these experiences shape the way I approach every project. They fuel my drive to help companies grow, innovate, and deliver products that genuinely enhance the on-water lifestyle.

Momentum was created to support international brands entering or expanding in Europe by offering factory representation, sales development, and full operational support—from logistics and legal structure to marketing, aftersales, and technical service.

Our mission is simple:
To help great watersport and marine products succeed in the European market through expertise, passion, and reliable long-term partnerships.

Yours sincerely,
