So, tell us something about yourself firstly? How old are you and where was you born?
Well, I’m 21 year old dude from finland, pretty much from the middle of nowhere just below the lapland… I’ve been riding since 9yr old kid and I still love it!
What brought you to snowboarding at all, what were your beginnings?
I was skiing at first couple years, got bored to it and shredding looked so much cooler. The basic story that everybody has.
Our next question concerns your own sport. What kind of snowboarding do you prefer?
Well, the most I like to ride kickers, corners and powder. As well, jibbing and also to make up some different kind of things. Pipes and rails are ,too, fine sometimes, so I prefer pretty much everything you can do with snowboard.
Thanks for your answers, have you any message for our people?
Peace out and have fun!
