I am: always keen to bike
Motto: You only get one chance, take her true!
Before I started biking, I played handball successfully for a long time but I felt somehow that I needed a new challenge and finally I was introduced to biking by a few kids from my neighbourhood. By now, I've been bike riding for 9 years.
I started off by buying a 24" hardtail with money I had saved up from my birthday and Christmas. It was with this bike that I gained my first experiences in freeriding. At the age of around 14 however, I began to concentrate more on the things that I enjoyed best. Now I mostly ride dirt and slopestyle. I have sponsors too and take part in competitions.
I try to dedicate as much time as possible to my sport and make the most of it; after all, I hope to make my future out of bike riding!

My riding Style
I think it's hard to define your style. That being said, I think when you see me on my bike you can tell that I started out doing dirt jumps. I just love flying high into the air and doing my tricks as cleanly as possible. Achieving the perfect execution, that's what matters most to me!
What motivates me
A proper session with my friends, like Moritz Zapp, Magnus Baumann or my team-mate Dominic Amberger!
