Tobi Hechel

Tobi Hechel is an enigma. His feats in snowboarding have made him a legend among his peers. Tobi´s accomplishments on the slopes , and in the air, have left a permanent and colorful mark on the snowboard scene. His trademark is huge rock drops; jaw-droppingly huge spins and his smooth style have defined him as an exceptional snowboarder. Tobi is always full of surprises and that left me wondering: What will he do next?

My personal style is:
Go big or go home

Tim Beeckmans

Tim Beeckmans - what an amazing rider. He is a true snowboarder who lives and breathes for the sport and who is oozing with style. The best way to judge a snowboarder is by their actions and Tim is all about action! Seeing Tim in the mountains and in the forest is truly impressive, he finds his own path and performs the most amazing jumps and spins on natural terrain. Tim will be riding forever; I think it is in his blood.

My personal style is:
Chilled agressive!


Kaj Aubi

Kaj Aubry is a hellraiser. He loves the pain of snowboarding. Maybe he doesn’t love the pain, but he certainly asks for it. I am always a little scared to watch, but I have to look anyway. Kaj seems to seek out the scariest spots on natural terrain and then do one of his crazy tricks (like his favorite flip the double backflip). Kaj is a daredevil; always pushing the limit and trying to create new tricks. Only one word can describe this rider: AMAZING!!!

My personal style is:
Cool!!!


Josef Sachenbacher

Seppi Sachenbacher is the Terminator. He is psycho on a snowboard; he must be part animal and part machine. To watch Seppi is like playing a computer game, he hikes like a mountain goat and spins as if he is being remote-controlled. This computerized action snowboarder controls all aspects of the game – big mountains, cliffs, huge kickers, parks, streets rails --- you name it, Seppi can do it.

My personal style is:
Aggressive but cool

Maria Teifel

Maria Teifel was born and raised with a snowboard attached to her feet, or it definitely looks that way. Maria is the ballsiest female snowboarder I have seen out there and she never shies away from any task - like cliff jumps, extreme freeriding, big jumps, deep powder or crazy urban snowboarding. Look for this beautiful lady on the mountains - she will blow your mind!!! Ride on, Maria!!!

My personal style is:
Smooth


Danny Bulthé

Danny Bulthé started his snowboarding career on the indoor slopes like almost every snowboarder in Belgium. Danny’s passion is for powder and big mountains. His enthusiasm for the sport took him to the European Alps and he never left. Now Danny is shooting and filming almost every day. And hopefully his dream of “snowboarding Alaska” will come true someday.

My personal style is:
Relaxed freeriding

Florian Schneider

Florian Schneider’s amazing tricks in freeride and freestyle skiing are impressive. He is not specialized in just one aspect of skiing. Florian enjoys skiing the big mountains, the streets and in the park as well. Just when you think you have seen all he´s got Florian pulls out (or off, depending on the aim of the text) another crazy trick. Free spirit!!!

My personal style is:
Clean


Wick de Geus

Wick de Geus loves fresh powder in the morning, steep mountains in the afternoon and a good bottle of wine and a gourmet dinner at night. Freeskiing new mountains with fresh powder everyday are Wicks vision of a perfect season.

My personal style is:
Agressive

Christoph Schwarz

Christoph “Mr. Black” Schwarz. Don’t let his “easy style” fool you, when it comes to wreaking havoc on the mountains, he is hell spawn incarnate. Mr. Black kills every obstacle on his way on and off the mountains with crazy jumps and spins. “Mr. Black” will continue to kill it with his colorful style!!!

My personal style is:
Stylish and agressive

Alex Koidl 

Alex Koidl can be found where the mountains are steep and the snow is deep. Alex slaughters all obstacles on his way down the mountains with his remarkable tricks. His dream is skiing the 7 continents, looking for big mountains and virgin powder.

My personal style is:
Cool!!
