Competitions & ISPO

Last week I headed to Brand for the FIS European Cup.We weren't allowed to participate on Thursday because there went something wrong with the announcement but on Friday we were ready to compete.We had to go up on the mountain at 7 o'clock which was way too early.Then we had two Runs for Training and they exactly certified us in fact that we don't have more than two runs,-that was crazy because two runs were definitely insufficient.Well,after all I could reach the 4th Place,not really stoked about it but I injured my knee the day before a little bit so I wanted to make sure that everything is kinda safe.Next time it hopefully will be better ;-)

After the European Cup I headed to my brilliant girl Isabel and our next stop was Switzerland.On Saturday we started our way to the Flumserberg for another stop of the Swiss Freeski Tour.The weather was better than we expected,the view was acceptable but however the conditions in the Park were partly sketchy.But we had a lot of fun and this is the most important thing.The day was over and we went home with the first place,wuhu :)

Our next and last stop,guess what,ISPO.On Sunday we passed in Munich at the Ispo and it was a blast,it was so much fun to meet and talk to all the people and to see all the new collections and of course to know,what I'm going to wear the next time and yes,I really love the new O'neill Outerwear.

Youngblood Camp,Europa Cup & Ispo

First of all I want to make mention of the very sad news,we got last week.I think it was very hard for everybody,who was a little bit integrated in our sport,to hear that Sarah Burke passed away last Thursday.As I read it in the internet,I hardly couldn't belive it.I got to know her last year at the Nine Queens Event and it was so crazy because she was the most friendliest Queen of all.I still can remember pretty good as she asked me after my name when we stood on top of the inrun and while I was dropping in,she cheered ''Yeaah Sabrina,go for it''.She was definitely the most impressive girl in the whole freeski world and she had not only a lot of talent but also a lot prettiness & loveliness.There's nobody who can ever mess with her.RIP Sarah Burke!

My last weekend did I pass with some coaching at the Youngblood Camp at the Arber.I had a great group full of girls and we had so much fun together.I really enjoyed the days with the ladies and it was so impressive to see how they improve theirselfs from day to day.

On Thursday I'm going to participate in my first Fis-Event.I will take part in the Europacup in Brand,after that I'm heading to Swiss for the next Competition of the Swiss Freeski Tour and on Sunday I'll visit the Ispo to check out all the new products for the upcoming year :-)

O'neill Video Diary & Youngblood Camp

On Sunday I finally arrived in Munich/Germany after three amazing weeks in Colorado.I left Colorado with a little tear in my eye because it was such a great time out there but I'm also pretty happy to be back home right now,even though skiing was way better than school ;-)

And if you want to see,what I've done on my trip to Colorado,check out my O'neill Video Diary right here:

On Friday I'm on tour again,I'm going to coach the Youngblood Freeski Camp at the Arber until Sunday.I think this might gonna be so much fun so I'm really looking forward it and hope I can give the other girls some tipps to improve their skills ;-)

Breckenridge/Keystone

We already had some great days in Breckenridge and Keystone.The park conditions here can't compare in any way with the conditions in Germany or Austria.It's such a perfect shaped park here and if you like you can do 7 jumps in one run,that's incredible.It's so much fun riding Breckenridge or Keystone,wuhu ;-)

And I wish all of you guys a happy new year ;-)

SFR Tour & Colorado

On Sunday I headed to Val Thorens,France for the SFR Tour.We arrived late in the evening and there was more snow as we had ever expected.It dumped a lot and even if the organisers tried to do the competition,they were not able,because the snowfall was so heavy and the visibility was pretty bad.

After due considerations they decided to postpone the competition again to Thursday and Friday.
So we spent the next two days on the mountain with a lot of powder,which was so much fun.After those great days,we were absolutely ready for the competition until we've heard that the Ladies and Rookies Category will be cancelled.That was so annoying for us girls because we spent a lot of time there in Val Thorens for the competition.
But well,we made the best of the days and went skiing some powder and had in spite of all a good time anyway.

And yesterday I travelled to Colorado with my friends Lucas Mangold and Johannes Drexl.After 24 Hours of flying and waiting we were absolutely wasted.

Now It's time to get some breakfast and then to go to Keystone,wuhuu :)
