BIOGRAPHY
I am a 32 years old professional freeskier from Austria, Schladming.
I started skiing at the age of 3. After racing gates for a while, I got my first pair of twin tips when I turned 13 years. At that time I was skiing all different kinds of terrain like park, off-piste, urban, building jumps in the powder and totally fell in love with skiing the entire mountain.
Later on I was competing at park contests, which took me to a lot of different places like Australia, New Zealand, North America and all across Europe. I made a 6th place at the US Open qualification and the semi finals at the European Open in 2007.
Two years later I won the ”Total Fight” contest in Andorra and was runner up at the “Red Bull Playstreets” in Bad Gastein, Austria.
Nevertheless I decided to focus on freeriding and use my freestyle experience in the backcountry. Thus, in 2015 I was awarded with the second place of the “Line of the Year Award” and I am still motivated to be further successful in riding powder.
