According to Björn, it was good luck that he didn't turn out to be the speed demon he wanted to be. And so after several years in ski racing, he exchanged the icy pistes for the unspoilt powder snow. His 'big mountain' competitive career got off to a start with second place in the "White Thrill" at St. Anton (Arlberg). In 2007, he won the Snowfever Bigmountain in Fieberbrunn (Tyrol) and thus qualified for the first time for the legendary XtremeVerbier, which he completed in a respectable eighth place. The young man, who has adopted Innsbruck as his hometown, studies economics, the Tyrol party scene and the art of climbing so that he does not get bored during the few snow-free days. In September 2010, he set off on a soultrip through Argentina together with fellow team members Max and McFly.
