Did your 2015 season go as you planned it at the beginning of the year?
Martijn Jaspers: Not really. The change of team and all work with that cost a lot of energy. The season started okay with some 1/4 finals in World Cups and the Worlds. After that a crash in Argentina ended my season with a dislocated and damaged shoulder.
What was your most rewarding result (personally) in 2015?
Martijn Jaspers: At Worlds I was at my best, some small mistakes didn't give me the result I wanted. Winning the 3 Nations cup C1 felt good personally. Though it was not the heaviest field, it was good to win which I don't do often.

Did your 2015 season go as you planned it at the beginning of the year?
David Graf: I was coming back after a surgery (removing some metal) so I thought my time will be more against mid or end of season but the start was better than expected.
What was your most rewarding result (personally) in 2015?
David Graf: My first big result was the Bronze in Baku, it was such a relief to finally put it together when it counted! But my 3rd place at the WorldChampionships was a much better race.
