Mat Schaer

BRITHDAY: 18.06.1990
HOMETOWN: Geneva
BEST RESULTS:I'm not too much a contest rider but I've reached some TTR finals / Interviews in Snowsurf and 7th sky magazine, coverage in different snowboard medias (Whiteout, Onboard, Method TV...).
ABOUT ME: I'm born in Geneva and started riding in the french and swiss alps with my brother and best friend. I graduated from high school two years ago and then started snowboarding full time. Now i'm shooting for Absinthe films -what means riding with some of the best riders in the world at the most incredible spots- and i'm really stoked about it.
FILMS:Absinthe films (2011), Ero one films (2009 and 2010)
SOMETHING YOU THINK EVERYONE SHOULD TRY IN THEIR LIFETIME: Everybody should try hard to do or become what he's always dreamed to. Those things are different for everyone.
AGE YOU LEARNED TO SHRED: 10 years old.
CRAZIEST DREAM: Stop everything I'm doing here for one whole year to go around the world with my backpack. No phone, nothing. Change my ways of life for a while and adapt it to where I go. Just to see how people live elsewhere. I call it " the school of life".
WHAT EXCITES YOU: Travelling, powder
OTHER: Thanks to my sponsors (DC, Electric, Nixon, Slytech) and to my family & friends
