Yesterday at the candy railjam I came of a rail a little wrong and ended up straight on my face. I also banged my shoulder pretty bad. I could lift and move it pretty good right afterward, but when I was trying to take my sweater off I heard a loud snap, and it hurt pretty bad for like 30 seconds.
I went to the doctor and he didn't think anything was broken or anything. We scheduled for a x-ray early this morning, I managed to drag myself out of bed, get in the car, drive about 50 meters in the new snow and then I got stuck. Turned off the engine and went straigt back to bed. So I have to try to get an x-ray tomorrow instead.
Anders Backe and the winner of the railjam, Aleks Aurdal. On their mac, I would guess blogging!
Hanging out at Håtveit is pretty god damn fun. We had a session on the jump on top of the mountain yesterday and a night session on the rail set ups. it was suppose to be qualifiers on that jump today but it was way to windy, so we just had another session on the rails instead. I decided to find my camera and shoot a little, turns out Im not made for being behind the camera so I got tired of shooting after like 15 minutes. I managed to get some fun stuff and I put it together for you guys. Not much but it gives you an idea of what we´re doing here.
I can see out the window now that the qualifiers have started on the Backyard Booter instead of the jump on top of the mountain so I should probably start thinking about getting out there.
Not much really happens in this small town of mine, but it's nice to see when it does it's something with skiing. Railjam, downtown øyer. A lot of people showed up both participated and watched.
Nico D and Amiral P had a concert afterwards! They Play Reagae and they are sooo sick. They made the outtro song for "eyes wide open" and they had a nr 1 hit in the birthplace of reagae, Jamaica. That means they'r pretty legit!
I woke up to a pretty grey day. Spent the morning debateing if I was going skiing or not Witch should'nt be anything to sit and wounder about. But last time I was skiing in Hafjell it was like -25 celsius and really shitty light when the the sun wasen't out. Then it occured to me! I'ts almost spring. So i got my skigear on and headed up. Sure enough, it was about 0 degrees, kinda slushy, the sun peaked out alitte bit between the clouds and I bumped into a couple of friends like the guy in the pic. Turned out to be an Asesome day, just messing Around with underflips and all that fun stuff. I actually got really bummed when I found out that the park is closed tomorrow to make it ready for a snowboard comp on saturday. Oh well.
After the hill we went to Kim's place for a Taco and board game night.
Alias - party edition. Greatest game ever.
Yeah, it's pretty fun. Don't gonna explaine the whole game, but it's a game with words and it makes it a lot better to Play with a Sweedish person. Go Kim.
Im Back home in Norway after a intense week at Euro X. The week turned out to be pretty fun, the course got a lot better after our input and advice so the course was actually pretty fun to ski. I placed 10th, 2 spots behind a final spot. Even though I didn´t make finals Im not completely disappointed. We had 2 runs, my 1st run was pretty basic. I just tried to keep it smooth and simple. I was really happy with my run.... until the last jump.... since speed was an issue with the last jump I was gonna end my run with a simple sw 10 mute, probably the most basic trick in skiing, after a sw 7 mute, but I hooked my ski in the take off and lost control. I stomped it but I had absolutely no grab what so ever. So I messed up pretty bad, but I wasen´t that far back. If I grabbed Im pretty sure I would be in the finals. 2nd run, I fell in the trap of the six jumps in one course. Did a small speedcheck where I shouldn´t had and because of that came up a little short. So yeah, not stoked at all but also not that disappointed either. I can really feel the almost year long break I had but im getting there, Slowly but surely.
