Under that spectacular beard lies some real talent. Filip Flisar started skiing back in 1992. From 2004 to 2007, he was a member of the national alpine team but eventually felt that the discipline didn't fulfil his expectations.

Always on the hunt for new challenges, Filip decided to try freestyle. Filip's first season in freestyle was all about exploration and discovery. He found his forte in big air, so much so that he became a big air national champion and a Quiksilver Freeride battle winner.
