/ Experience freedom...
share:
"Free riding is my passion. As a teenager I discovered my love for snowboarding. This sport has matured over the years into a strong attitude of life and led me into the world of the mountains - to Innsbruck, to my new home base. After the successful completion of my studies in sports and chemistry, I've been focusing on my sporting ambitions. The freedom that I experience while free riding is a very special enrichment. I enjoy the close contact with nature and like the challenge of adjusting my turns in the terrain, snow and weather. Every day is different out there.
Home base:
Innsbruck, Arlberg
Sponsors:
Ortovox, Scott, Rad-Air, SP and Deeluxe
Goals/Plans:
Last winter was very successful and I hope that I will manage to follow this up. A first meeting with the Freeride World Tour 10/11 will take place in January in La Clusaz, France. In spring, steep face tours are scheduled in Austria and Switzerland. I'd like to continue and pass on my enthusiasm for free riding as a snowboard and ski guide.
Best descent:
Cima Tosa, Brenta Dolomites
Favorite peak: Always the one on which I am currently on.
