You probably have a nickname!? Tell us about the funny story behind!
“Schnitzel Ali”, I have been vegetarian for 8 years until I got home at 4 o clock from this party and found that huge Schnitzel in our fridge… damn it was delicious!!!
Do you remember your first day on a snowboard?
I had my first snowboard day together with my dad at FLUMSER BERGE. He wanted to have a nice ski day, so after a couple of hours he just left me all alone cause he was sick of waiting.. I can so understand him J
How did you learn new tricks back in the days?
I always had a look how the guys were doing it and I really wanted to copy their style as well….Sometimes it worked out pretty well…but a lot of times it just didn´t…and I got hurt a lot… hehe
Why did you never stop snowboarding since then?
Some mistakes are just too much fun to only make once…
You probably have visited a bunch of different ski resorts already. What is your favorite place, what was the most exotic and where would you like to live and ride in the future?
I have discovered a lot of places until now, but my favourite place is still at my home mountain at Innsbruck (Seegrube, Nordpark). Its not all about the resort itself, its about with who you are riding with and how much you know the resort. It can be awesome everywhere when you got lots of powder, but if you ride with your best friends and everybody knows exactly where to go and what is going to be safe (if you jump off things like cliffs or drops etc) –that’s just the best!!! I have actually just visited Russia/Mt Elbrus and MtCheget. Was s exotic place, but everything we did was just super scary… It´s a great experience to visit countries like that and you actually realize how much easier and safer it is to go riding at your homeresort. I would love to go riding some PowPow in Japan and Alaska…That’s my goals!
You also must have seen tons of snowboard videos in the past. What´s your favorite video part and why do you remember?
I have never been into snowboardvideos that much, so I actually cannot remember any special parts… I was forced to watch a lot of skate videos though, as my brother was watching them after school everyday…I really liked the mouse video, if anyone knows what I am talking about…and the music as great!
Let us know about your favorite trick! Do you have any specials in your trick bag?
I just love bs 180 nose…everyone who knows me better knows what I am talking about!!!hehe
What do you like most about Völkl Snowboards?
Well I love that us girls have a lot of influence in the designs and shapes… That’s just amazing.Thanks!
What about entertainment? Let us know about your gigabytes of MP3s and videos!
???Yes I do have them….
How do you make your stomach happy? You for sure have some favorite drinks and food!?
I like every good, fresh and healthy food, but fish… But I am a bad cook!!!…Unfortunately….
What was your best experience so far in life? Can you explain a little?
I spent two months in Bali with my friend Simone. That was already in 2003, but I would call it my best vacation trip ever, as we had a blast in just everything we were doing. It did not matter if it rained or got 40°, we made the best out of it every single time. I love to think back of that trip. Plus I put myself on a surfboard the first time, I got so addicted and passionate…Loving it
And finally what is your biggest dream?
Wow, biggest dreams are hard to define…well my biggest dream is that all the people all around (friends and family) stay healthy, no more war etc…but those dreams will never come true, I guess..
So what else I can dream about is surfing at the Maledive Islands and snowboarding in Alaksa??? That would be awesome….
Don’t take it too serious, it´s just snowboarding! Life is beautiful!
