HELENE VALERIE FRUHWIRTH
I am Helene Fruhwirth, a professional MTB rider, MTB coach, MTB model from Austria. I love to ride fast downhill and to jump. But I also like to teach my skills to others. I am a competitive person, so I am thankful that I can call myself a 4 cross pro tour overall winner and world championships bronze medalist and a top 15 Downhill World cup racer. I am still racing and love it.
Concerning our business. I am a creative head with a lot of different ideas. Writing Storyboards, taking photos, filming, talking in front of the camera and dealing with our business partners.
As you can imagine I worked in my 26 years racing career with a lot of sponsors. So my network is big and I understand both sides the needs of a company and also the needs of an athlete.
