Season's highlights

Best memorable session:
It was a trip to Antarctica with Jeremy Jones for Relentless movie, lives of the artists, we weren’t expecting much and we did get sun every day and breathtaking landscape. A unique experience I had tried to have a year before and that didn’t happen at that time. The second try was the good one and I shared that experience with tow good friends, Tero Repo (photographer) and Guido Perrini (filmer).

Best Line up until now:
Lost in between Canada and Alaska, we rode peaks and faces I thought were unreal during our camping trip in Alaska, go check Deeper movie to see what I’m talking about.
Philosophy: Life is about experiencing things … find your own way, keep searching, never give up … you'll find happiness.
 
What inspires you?

Goals in snowboarding:
Live Fast and die old!
I started doing a bit of everything in snowboarding; I won plenty of snowboard cross. Once I got the chance to start filming I understood really quickly that it was what I wanted to do the most. Now I’m trying to push my limit and big mountain riding the way I see it. The pedal to the metal and full on. Life is good and I can combine my love for nature with my job. My goals are to keep on exploring and to chase the most perfect snow and faces that can be ridden.
