Do you think you would still be whitewater photographer if you weren’t a kayaker? 
"It’ s impossible. The best necrophil is always the gravedigger."
-
It’’s a hustle to take a beautiful picture from the river. Do you remember which photo took you the most effort? 
"When I take a beautiful picture I will let you know."
-
Are you ever limited by taking photos on the river. I mean that you don’t enjoy the section of the river that much. 
"Your question doesn’t make any sense but fortunately I know what you wanted to say. My joy from taking a good photo multiplies. I am happy + Honza is happy + Hiko is happy + Kayak Session is happy. Multiple joy equals 800 euros."
-
Why you don’t want to take girls to expeditions? 
"You would make an exception once and you don’t even realize and here you are sitting in a bus full of women going to Makarska to do pilates. (I am not sure what pilates but I know that it’s something women do.)"

What type of rivers you like the most? 
"I am waiting to get a personal provocative question but you are still asking these boring questions about paddling."
 -
This Summer you spent a month with our team rider Ondrej Tunka in the US. How do slalom athletes paddle on whitewater? 
"I have no idea how they paddle but I am sure they suck in the most important thing - partying. However Tuna is not completely desperate. Although he doesn’t fancy beer much, bottle of a good rum lits up his eyes."
-
Is there any unestimated destination that will enjoy a paddling boom soon? 
"North Corea."
