Which country has the best park / mountain conditions in your<br />
opinion?<br />
America for sure, then it depends what time of year it is. I<br />
would say the summer in NZ, Hintertux Glacier in Austria in<br />
autumn, then the winter I would say Breckenridge and Keystone<br />
america. It’s good for training early before competitions and<br />
then just stay there till spring. After winter in Spring, Mammoth,<br />
North star, all the resorts around lake tahoe really...and the<br />
best thing is, everywhere you go you meet the same people<br />
riding park. So you always ride with your friends where ever<br />
you travel. It’s kind of a small world.<br />
Name your 5 current favorite riding tracks on your iPod?<br />
I like to mix up all lot of different music, hiphop, rock... but<br />
personally I don’t really like to ride with music.I like the idea<br />
of it but it’s quite antisocial when someone comes up and<br />
wants to talk to you in the park you know. Mostly there are<br />
big speakers on the mountain already so there is always some<br />
sort of music.<br />
Do you know what the future is going to be like for you?<br />
I don’t really think about it too much, just wanna enjoy every<br />
second of life and go with it.<br />
Besides snowboarding, do you have any other hobbies?<br />
climbing in the summer, hiking, swimming... but it’s more like<br />
chilling in the sun than swimming haha.<br />
Best place to do these things?<br />
At home in the Valley. Achsau is very good for swimming, it’s<br />
village near where I live. They have a nice little bridge you<br />
can jump of into the fresh mountain water.<br />
Let’s talk about fashion, is the outwear fashion important for<br />
you among the sport for girls?<br />
Yes it is. It describes what sort of rider you are. Some people<br />
like to be more like a rocker - super tight pants and others<br />
goes for a more baggy look. It describes a little bit of your<br />
own style but I wouldn’t say it describes someones personality.<br />
