In 1995 he passed the SSBS instructor exam. The next year, the first boards arrived thanks to a sponsorship agreement with Radical. By competing in various freestyle competitions, he turned his snowboarding hobby into a profession. Niki became coach of the junior freestyle team and international team rider for Killer Loop.
