Ondřej
Růžička

Ondřej is one of the veterans of the Czech Freeride Team. He has been competing on the international freeride scene since 2019 and already has 36 starts in the Freeride World Tour Qualifier (FWTQ) series behind him. Thanks to years of experience and perseverance, he climbs higher in the world ranking every season. For him, freeride isn't just about results, but also about constantly pushing his own limits, gaining experience in the mountains and his passion for snowboarding. Every season brings new challenges, opportunities for further progress and the motivation to go one step further. Alongside his own racing, he works as a snowboard instructor and as a coach with an FIS FWT Coach licence. For him, the Czech Freeride Team isn't just the team he competes for, but also a project he helped found and actively develops. His goal is to help create better conditions for Czech freeriders and to support the next generation of riders on their way to international competitions.
