New zealand trip - fail

A couple of days ago... I guess 4-5 days ago, not really keeping track of days and dates down here. We went up to Treble Cone to shoot Jon´s kicker. 6 AM wake up, raced the sun up to the hill and made it up to a beautifull sunrise. Everything was looking good.


Two stoked guys ready to sesh.


Something that´s starting to be an ugly habit, Jon showed up in a Helicopter. So we took pics so we would look cool to..

After probably a hundred speed checks we finaly pulled the plug. What was starting out as a perfect session fast became an utter dissapointment. Due to new really slow snow we didn´t get speed. no one of us didn´t even try it. It was kinda funny, after 5 hours of speed checking, trying to get the speed to get over the gap. We figured out that if we´re only trying to make it over the gap it´s not worth it to try cause we still had like 10 meters left to the landing. So basicly we called it a day.


So since that seemed to be the only window with nice weather. It looked pretty dark for the rest of this trip. When we found out that the biggest storm on the planet we´re coming in we decided to try to get the hell out of here. That didn´t work so we been stuck indoors since then. we did manage to get some tennis in though.

Wanna go home!

TC Kicker

Mr. Jon Olsson was kind enough to invite me to session the kicker that he´s building here in TC, NZ. So I went up there to meet up with him and finishing buliding the kicker.
We didn´t get it all done, but after one more day of building tomorrow it will be all set. What we come to expect after all these years is if Jon put´s his name on a jump it´s pretty much going to be a perfect jump, And this one is no exception. It´s a 25 meter from kicker to knuckle and a 3 meter step up! It´s big, but it looks like a lot of fun.


You can also see it´s a pretty banger backdrop!


Krill pretends to be cold but really he´s just a little camera shy.


There was these really cool birds called ´´Kia´´. I tried to get a cool shot but it didn´t work out that well. They are really cool though, they look like parrots and when they spread their wings you see a bunch of colors.

Up early tomorrow for a session at Cardrona and then back up to TC to get the kicker done!

Airbag fun

We hit the Airbag a couple of days ago! Alltough it was really small it was a lot of fun. Hit it like 6 times then we got kinda over it cause you had to huck everything you had to do doubles. I did a double flat, that didn´t work out that well,
a switch Bio 9. Belive it or not I never done that before, at least not on purpose. Turns out that trick is really simple. I did land on my skis on the airbag though, something I don´t reccomend, I just flew right over the aribag and landed on my head on the other side. I also did a sw double, you can see my second try on the clip above and it felt pretty good, just a little to small to make it all the way around.


Backseat bitches. Stack, Little Beau Wells and Drew.
I haven´t been able to document these last couple of days beacause I lost my phone. But turns out I just left it at Jossi´s house and he found it. So stoked, my trip back to Norway would suck without my iphone.


This is just some photo´s that we happened to take trying to figure out the Go Pro.

Golf in Queenstown

Looks like it´s gonna be another down day here in NZ.
woke up to grey skys and rain splashing on the window. The last couple of days
actually been prety good though. Yesterday we tried out the airbag up at Snowpark, the jump was pretty small so we could barely get any doubles around but it was fun.
Since it seems like there´s alot of time to kill outside of skiing here in Wanaka,
we been golfing and playing tennis alot.

Here´s a short video of us golfing!
We got tired of filming and sucked into to the game so it´s pretty short.

Wanaka, NZ

Soooo, been a while! Let's just call it a summer vacation and skip the excuses;p






After a beautiful flight in to Queenstown and a 45 minute drive I found myself in Wanaka! Been her for 2 days and I have cabin fever allready! The weather hasen't been that great so me and my roomate, Mr Colby J West have spent many hours infront of our computers!






Computer time, and not to happy about it.





We flew over Cardrona on our way in, you can see the resort on the top left side! Looks like they had a pretty nice day.






We picked up Drew ''fatman'' lederer today, he will be our filmer for the next couple of weeks! So hopefully if the weather get's better we can spit out some edits!






Allthough the weather sucks it seems like we came at the right time!
