What drives you?
The feeling I get when learning new tricks, and when you do your best and succeed while competing.
Random funfact?
I was struggling with double vision for half a year after a head injury. I was skiing with it, but had to close one eye to see one jump instead of two, and to get a better depth perception.
What’s the wildest thing you’ve been part of?
My passion for skiing. I’ve always been a skier and that’s my guideline in life. The experience I have thanks to my passion makes me feel alive and I can’t imagine a life without skiing.

What’s the wildest thing you’ve been part of?
Skiing in front of 20 000 people at XGames Oslo in 2016. It was a crazy feeling standing on top of the scaffolding and hear the huge crowd cheering on you. And it was extra special to grab the silver medal.
