Russ Henshaw, winner of the Red Bull Playstreets in 2009, is the man to beat at the rematch of the new school freeskiing event in Austria. We met the Australian for a wordrap...

When did you start with new school school skiing and why?
I was 12 years old. In the years before, I participated in some alpine ski races, but I found them quite boring.

What´s your favourite ski destination?
Definitely Breckenridge in Colorado.

Three character descriptions which suit you best?
Easy going, happy, funny.

If you met a genie in a bottle, what would be your first wish?
That Vegemite (Australian food paste) would be available all over the world.

What does Red Bull Playstreets mean to you?
It´s the event with the best aftershow party. And one of the best new school contests on the planet.
