What fascinates you most about
skitouring?
I began skiing at a very young age. At the age of 8, I was already doing cross-country skiing with my father. What I like now is to cover great distances alone or with good friends and always with this feeling of freedom. Moreover the beauty of the mountain landscapes still fascinates me. In short, I like to leave traces on an untouched slope, to pass from one valley to another in spring...

I have already achieved a significant goal in that I will take my place on the starting line for Dynafit International during the 2008 season.

I would like to push ahead with my training, especially in mountain environments, in order to be able to overcome all challenges at a technical level as well.
What fascinates you most about
skitouring?
Four or five years ago I observed Andi Ringhofer at PlanaiXTreme in Schladming as a spectator on the sidelines. I was fascinated by his performance and could not imagine climbing Planai at 3x racing speed. Next year I took my place at the starting line of the competition and came in seventh place in the marathon as the youngest participant. I have been fascinated with ski-mountain climbing ever since!

To win the European championships and Pierrag Menta, but also to go on nice outings in the mountains What fascinates you most about
skitouring?
To see how one often underestimates ones capabilities. During the high road plus record (from Chamonix to Alagna via Zermatt, that is 10500m of slopes and 140 km, in 3 days) I realised that I was capable of much more than I thought possible beforehand. On crossing the finish line, I felt an enormous satisfaction, likewise on arrival at the finish line during the world championships. What is equally fantastic is to always be among beautiful landscapes and in nature. What means to you being part of the Dynafit International Team?
I am very happy to be part of the Dynafit international team. I think that with the athletes involvement in the design, we can develop products that are really outstanding and best adapted to cross-country ski. I take great pleasure in being part of it from its design stage up to the almost daily use of the products.
Moreover, I like the products designed by Dynafit a lot; they are outstanding and very beautiful!

Goals for 2009
To spend as much time as possible with my friends in the mountains surrounding my home. On a larger scale, I hope to go on an expedition somewhere in the Himalaya. Logistics and costs make just getting to your objective a significant accomplishment. I have my eye on several mountains, but but a trip to Manaslu with Beni, Basti, and the others would be great. Hobbies
All kinds of skiimg (ski touring, alpine, tele, nordic), kayaking, mt biking, surfing, hiking, ice climbing.......I try not to descriminate. What fascinates you most in ski-mountaineering?
I enjoy traveling to warm, exotic places but am always relieved to return to the mountains. I grew up in the mountains and they are where I feel most at home. They are the landscape with which I have the greatest connection and strongest interaction. And, for me there is no interaction with my surroundings more intimate than when I am on skis.

Anything that involves high altitude, exercise, good conversation and beautiful views. The more challenging, the better.Aims for 2008
To increase the awareness of Dynafit in North America, to tell their story
and share their passion for skiing mountaineering successes. To become
more involved in ski mountaineering clinics, websites and races so I
can continue to help spread the sport. Finally, to share the
simplicity, ease and ingenuity of Dynafit to all the ski mountaineers
who still carry too much weight uphill with their anitquated skies,
boots and bindings. What fascinates you most about ski mountaineering?
It will always be the grandeur and personality of the mountains. Nothing
can make me feel more humble than climbing a mountain. And more
super-human.
