Biking.Trailbuilding. Snowboarding.Mountains.

My name is Christian, I'm 31 years and living in the middle of the Austrian alps, in Tyrol.
I'm actually from North West Germany, but my heart is in the mountains, so I moved to the alps 3 years ago.

Over the last couple of years I've switched my jobs between winter and summer. While having quite a chilled time working on the gondola in winter, I put most of my energy into the summertime.
That means Monday to Friday sweating as a trailbuilder, and all in on my bike on weekends. All this physical effort is kills me sometimes, haha. But the best thing about it, except sleeping, is I actually spend my whole time, on the mountainside!

This year has been a little tough, with a lot of change, but luckily I can still spend a lot of time on my HB.130 in the bikepark (behind the house)
I‘m looking forward to more biking and some exciting video projects!

This area's high altitude brings us some long and hard winters. Unfortunately that means less time on the bike, but you have to know, winters here are just mind blowing!!! And anyway, last winter we rode our bikes down some freshly groomed ski slopes! The feeling is unreal, I can tell you!

So even in tough times, a lot of amazing stuff happens here in the mountains. But before I waffle too much, let me take you through a year in the mountains.

Mountains in Winter
There wasn't a great deal of snow last winter, but mind blowing views like always.

Winter Biking
A friend and I had the possibility to ride down a glacier before opening for the day.
First time and we only had one shot. We reached a speed of around 100km/h.
