Filip Kontak from SK Oroslavje lives in Oroslavlje and was initially active as a cross-country skier. In 2005 he competed in his first FIS races as well as races in lower class series such as the Alpine Cup and in junior races . He took part in the European Youth Olympic Festival 2007 in Jaca as well as the Nordic Junior World Ski Championships of the year in Tarvisio , 2008 in Malles and 2009 in Praz de Lys Sommand , both without any notable successes.
