Jojo Linder - Rollladen

Born in 1984, Jojo started snowboarding in 1998.  Two years later, at the age of 16, he was nick-named and known as "Little Rockie" in Andermatt.  At the end of that winter a snowboard instructor, seeing his potential and talent on a snowboard, insisted he continue similar sports during his summer season and entered him in a skateboard competition. By the second event he was already devouring the competition and standing on the podium! Needless to say, he loved skating and a skate team grabbed him up immediately.  Ever since that first compettion, he has been skating every free minute of his summers 

 

Jojo now has 10 years experience in downhill, slalom and boardercross competitions. He is also co-owner  of skateshop Rollladen in Zürich since 2005 and runs workshops not only for us but also for the organization Gorilla.ch. Jojo makes his living and lives his life to skate.  We love his passion, contagious enthusiasm to share his love of the sport with his students and his warm, easy-going, chillaxed style!
