2014
Started skiing at age two. "At that time I was already enthusiastic about winter and cold. I took my first attempts in Obersaxen. But just a few skiing seasons later, I just wanted to snowboard." (sophiehediger.ch)
"Snowboarding is fascinating for me and more versatile than skiing." (sophiehediger.ch)
"When I watched the Torino 2006 Olympic Games on TV, I was immediately fascinated by snowboad cross. Winning like Tanja Frieden (SUI) did at that time - that's my biggest goal since then." (sophiehediger.ch)
