The Trailside Crew Members

The Trailside Crew was introduced by two people, Mike Ladurner and Christian Auer. They can be found on www.trailsidecrew.com/crew.php. Here's a short portrait of them.

This is Mike Ladurner.


My name is Mike Ladurner. I was born in 1992, on the first of september. My roles in the crew are riding and photography. I'm in the crew since the beginning and i was one of the founders. My ridingstyle is downhill and freeride. I do this since 2010. My actual bike is a Giant Reign SX, but before i rode a Specialized Demo Eight Two. The thing i like the most about this sport is the speed and the adrenalin which gives you the power to handle situations which need very fast reflexes. In the opposite i hate when i fall or any kind of things that keep me away from the trails. One of my biggest goals i achieved was to be third at the Mottolino Best Trick Contest in Livigno, IT. My next goal is to be able to do a superman. I may take a while until then but i'm on my way.

This is Christian Auer.


My name is Christian Auer, short Chrigi. I am the youngest member of the crew. I was born on the third of february in 1997. I don't have a camera and so my role in the crew is to be a rider. I'm in the crew since the beginning and i was one of the founders. My ridingstyle is downhill and freeride. I do this since 2011. My actual bike is an old Bergamont Big Air, which i bought from Mike Ladurner. If there is a thing i like the most, it's to hang out with friends and have fun on the bikes. But this sport does also have his bad sites. I hate to fall or damage my bike. One of my biggest goals i achieved was to successfully learn a no-hander. The next thing i wanna learn is to whip like hell.
