Snowboarder Alex Pullin is chosen ahead of Lydia Lasilla as the Australian flag bearer for the opening ceremony of the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.

Snowboarder Alex Pullin has been chosen to carry the Australian flag at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.

The 26-year-old, a two-time gold medallist at the FIS world championships, will lead out his 60 countrymen at the opening ceremony in Russia on Friday.


He is one of Australia's top medal hopes in the men's snowboard cross, but was still considered a surprise selection ahead of four-time Olympian and reigning aerial freestyle skiing champion Lydia Lasilla.

Pullin, who was eliminated in the first round of his event in Vancouver 2010, has dismissed fears over security at the Games.
