Thomas Hlawitschka (A)

When did you start Skiing?

At the age of 2! Used to race for a few years and started freeskiing at the age of 15. Just as soon as the first ski movie came over to Garmisch!


Whats you favorite Skiresort?

We´ve been to Retallack in Canada last year, that was really sick! But I love to ski around Innsbruck, Arlberg and Chamonix is simply overwhelming.


Whats your favorite trick/tricks?

Switch 5s, Sw Mistys, Flat Spins...I love all sorts!
Throwing tricks of natural features is my favorite!

 

When was your best skiing day?

Depending on snow, they become better and better! Two years ago, we had a lot of snow, we had a lot of good days then!


What do you like about the Leki poles?

Cool design, the adjustment system is simple and effective...and the „clip in / trigger s“ is super comfortable.
