Arvid Auner is a city kid from Graz – and today one of the best snowboarders in the world. From a trial training with the Lipizzaners to switching from skis to a board, and his first World Cup victory, he recounts how a stubborn childhood wish turned into a world-class career.

The emotional highlight is his experience at the Special Olympics in Berlin: a subway moment, a sentence — "You are one of us" — and the realization that, in their world, we are actually the special ones.

An episode about groundedness, intrinsic motivation, and the message to young people: There is no perfect time – the decision simply has to be made.

In the run4future Impulse Podcast powered by LAOLA1, professional snowboarder Arvid Auner talks about his path into professional sports and his role as an ambassador for the Special Olympics.
