Snowboarding as a freerider is freedom for Géraldine Fasnacht. She can carry out her sport in the mountains, is in contact with nature, with the animals — and naturally with all her friends. In addition to extreme snowboarding, the sports spectrum of the Lausanne native is wide-ranging: from climbing and base jumping to wakeboarding and even water skiing!
