Aug 31, 2018·Snowboard Park & Pipe
Austrian rider Clemens Schattschneider has rung down the curtain on his competitive snowboard career.
“Over the past months I have more and more lost the passion to compete. So I decided to call it quits. I'm looking back on a great and successful time. I'm grateful that I was allowed to experience it,“ the athlete from Lower Austria said.
Schattschneider who won the Big Air/Slopestyle Crystal Globe back in 2011 will now focus on a career as personal coach.
In his eight years on the World Cup tour he finished three times on the podium of which one was a win (slopestyle Calgary 2011). The 25-year-old also represented his home country at three FIS World Championships where he ranked four times in the top-10.
In addition, he earned Slopestyle Gold at the 2011 Junior World Championships in Valmalenco, Italy and placed 25th at the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia.
