What was the most amazing skiing experience for you?

I would have to say my first time skiing while experiencing the mid night sun of the Arctic was my most amazing ski experience. I flew into Tromso, Norway at 5pm and met up with some new friends that were going to take me touring. Summit ting around 11pm with the most amazing views and then dinner over camp fire by the shore to top it all off was great. 2am and the sun was still up!

Your favorite destination?

I really like exploring the Alps these days. They are still so new and exciting to me each time I go there!

In wich segment of the Warren Miller movie can we see you? What´s so special about this skiing destination?

I was in the Svalbard segment of the Warren Miller movie. I think this destination is such a beautiful and some what unexplored part of the world that is pretty unique these days. The terrain, wildlife, scenery and mid night sun are all just amazing.

What´s so special about the "Flow State"?

The "Flow State" is such a great mind set to be in. To be able to just relax your mind and do what you love to do is such a special feeling.

What are you doing when you have a bad day?

When I'm having a bad day that probably means I'm stuck indoors and not having fun outside.

Which dream do you have?

To continue living my life immersed in the outdoors and surrounded by amazing friends.

What´s coming up next?

These days I'm preparing for my next winter of competition on the Freeride World Tour and any other opportunities that might come my way this winter.
