Strong in duels and in good condition with powerful shot. He liked to join the attack and especially sending numerous long balls which weren't always precise but he insisted in finding his teammates in attack on this way, he also possesed solid ball control and could carry the ball steadily out from defence. A tall and lean left back who was a fixture for Hamburg between 1960 and 1972. The East Prussian Jürgen Kurbjuhn was reputed for taking no prisoners on the pitch.
