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.
