What is your favourite place to ride and why?
My favorite place to ride is Laax. I grew up in Flims and I had the mountains just in front of my door. I really like my home town and I love the backcountry in Laax. I enjoy every day snowboarding in Laax and I love to shred with my friends!
What age did you start snowboarding?
I started snowboarding when I was about 6 years old. My father inspired me, when he learned it. I thought I had to learn it too, because it looks cool. So I started with my mother and from the day one I love snowboarding!
What snowboarders do you most look up to?
I really Nicolas Müller riding, Everything looks so smooth and stylish! We live at the same place so I enjoy every day when we snowboard together. My big inspiration when I was younger was my dad. He learned me how to do it!
What do you focus on most - slopestyle? Pipe? Big Air? and why?
I focus on riding slopestyle. I love this discipline! You can create your own run and at every contest you have to show or create a new run because every slopestyle is different. I enjoy riding the pipe as well. Every single season I try to be focused on learning new tricks but I also try to go out in the backcountry to films or shoot something.
What is your most memorable snowboarding experience?
I have a lot of memorable snowboard experience. I still can remember the day, when I started at the Burton European in 2006 in Laax. It was my first big contest and I won the Girls Slopestyle and couldn’t believe it. The whole week was a big inspiration for me. I never thought I had enough skills and talent to be a pro. After this week I was super motivated to train hard to become a professional snowboarder.
Your on the road a lot throughout the season - what is your favourite place to visit and why?
I love the summer. I really like to be on the beach and go surfing. Two of the nicest cities are Barcelona and New York. Since I've been in New York I almost go there every year to compete at the US Open and I visit New York in spring time.
Fläsch is one of my favourite towns in Switzerland. My grandmother and cousins live there. Every time I visit, I see all of my family members and we have at least a coffee together. Fläsch is a little small town with a huge character.
What does a normal day consist of for you when your not snowboarding?
A normal day for me means go to school in Chur. I study at the “Pädagogische Fachhochschule”. I love to do something for my brain besides snowboarding and I love to work with children, so I can’t wait to teach children.
How has TTR affected your snowboarding career?
Every year I try to compete at all 6* events. For me this means a lot and my goal is to win the tour one day. All the TTR Events are well organized and the courses are in a very good shape! It is nice to have a TTR ranking and a tour. This helps a lot to get the snowboard sport more famous and understood by the public.
