He began riding BMX at age six. He switched to track cycling in 2015. (vpro.nl, 05 Jul 2018; nrc.nl, 10 Nov 2016)

At age six he began practising BMX after being invited by a neighbour. He also practised artistic gymnastics until he was 12, but he was regularly troubled by shoulder injures. A track cycling coach then saw his potential and convinced him to make the switch. (vpro.nl, 01 Mar 2019; nrc.nl, 10 Nov 2016)

SHOULDER PROBLEMS
He has flexible shoulders and during his career as a BMX rider he underwent four shoulder operations. At age 16 the ligaments in his right shoulder were shortened and the joint reinforced with three hooks. In 2014, shortly after returning from rehabilitation, and just one week away from moving to the national training centre in Papendal, Netherlands, he once again dislocated his right shoulder. A piece of collarbone was attached to the joint with two screws, forcing him out of action for six months. Later, a crash in a race in Valkenswaard, Netherlands, resulted in injuries to both shoulders that required surgery. "I couldn't take it any longer. One Monday I decided together with my coach, physiotherapist and doctor to end my BMX career. It was on a Monday that I stopped with BMX, and on Wednesday I trained with the boys on the track."
