Roland Baur

HOMETOWN: Freiburg im Breisgau
HOME MOUNTAIN: in former times Zugspitze, now wherever, Germany, Austria and Switzerland
YEARS SNOWBOARDING: 23 years
SETUP: Wasteland 59 or Coda 61; Burton P1; Goofy and Duckstance
ARBOR PREFERRED BOARD AND WHY: Wasteland 59; Because you can do everything perfect with this board. Park, pipe, powder and going fast… the board has a perfect pop and a very direct feeling in every riding situation. You have to ride that board, or the board will ride with you!
SPONSORS: Arbor, Dragon
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE PLACE ON EARTH TO RIDE? Park and Powder, wherever it has perfect conditions. I`d like to go heli-boarding to Alaska…
IF YOU COULD PICK FOUR RIDERS (alive or dead) TO SNOWBOARD WITH, WHO WOULD THEY BE AND WHERE WOULD YOU GO? Bryan Iguchi, boarding in front of his house! Three of my best boarding friends, cause that`s always big fun, riding wherever we want, in Alaska for example!
WORST LIE YOU EVER TOLD YOUR MOM? “Why did you crash your car?” “There was a cat on the street last night and I decided better to hit an edge of a house, not the cat. Everything went so quickly, it was raining very much and I couldn`t stop my car!” But, I was very drunk on my way to another party. There was no cat, I just couldn`t drive anymore. As I woke up the next morning I couldn`t even remember that I crashed my car. I still do not remember which wall I hit. That the story with the cat was such a bad excuse, no one would ever believe… Next time I should try another story.
WORST LIE YOUR MOM EVER TOLD YOU? My mom never lies.
MAC OR PC? Wooden Laptop
WOULD YOU RATHER BE SMART & UGLY OR DUMB & BEAUTIFUL? Both is bad. If you are dumb and beautiful, you could be very happy, because you cannot think enough. But maybe you are too stupid to ride a snowboard or something else. But if you are smart and ugly, you could be able to have much fun in life. So I´d prefer to be the ugly one.
WHAT’S YOUR WORST HABIT? I´m getting insupportable, if I can`t do any sports for 2 or 5 days. I stopped smoking two years ago, but after four months smoking not even one cigarette, I started smoking on some days or when I´m drinking a beer. That`s fucking stupid.
SUMMER TIME: SKATE, SURF, OR RIDE?  Skate, surf, ride, mtb, golf…
