Tim Elter is the youngest member of the German surfing team. The 20-year-old qualified for the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

Elter: "I think I absolutely belong there. I am one of the best in the world. And I also believe that I can do something there" The surfing competitions take place in Tahiti, the French overseas territory in the South Pacific - because the necessary waves can be found there. "I'm sure that an Olympics is in the cards for me, ideally gold," says Elter.
