Where do you live?

In Austria. I study in Vienna so I spend some time there, in winter I’m at my parents’ place quite a lot, because it is in the mountains in Styria and pretty good for snowboarding.
In summer I like to travel…

When did you start skating?

I started skating in 1991, after seeing a skatecontest.

What did you start on, a mini ramp, an empty street, a skatepark, a jumpramp?

In the parking lot in front of my parents´ house. I got a flatrail and a jumpramp after a while.

What first disappointed you in skateboarding?

Winter breaks! I enjoy snowboarding, but not being able to skate for four month is no good. Since I study in Vienna the winter breaks got a lot shorter.
Not being able to skate for some reason still drives me mad.
