Movie tour!

Hey guys!

I've been in Oslo this whole week doing some different stuff. I went to Olympiatoppen on monday and thursday. The doctor that looked at my neck was really surprised how good my neck was looking, so i guess that's good. I met some of the
snowboarders on the norwegian snowboard team (Roger Kleivdal, Tore Holvik And Torstein horgmo). I joined those guys in the gymnastic room, off course I was just watching cause I can't jump on a trampoline or anything like that yet. I left during their warm up, so did'nt get to see what they were working on. It was really hard to just watch people having fun jumping in foam pits And what not, so I had to leave.

On friday I had a Photoshoot with Frode Sandbech for the cover of the next issue of Fri Flyt.
Saturday was the Fri Flyt awards and the premiere for the MSP movie witch was siiick, you should check that movie out. Now Im in Stavanger following the premiere tour for a little while, Bergen tomorrow.

Peace

Birthday boy!

Tonight we went out to celebrate my buddy (Jonny) 24th birthday! His girlfriend had planed a nice dinner with just the two of them, what he didn´t know was that we would all be waiting for him at the table. He was really surprised when he walked in to a corner with all his friends:)


I actually bought these a couple of days ago. jep, those are shoes with wheels. I know that´s a really childish thing to have, but I always wanted to get some. Notice the barbwire on the soul, that´s pretty hardcore!!! Jonny was really stoked when I got them so I figured why not buy some for him to. So if you see two guys on heelys at the airport it´s probably us!

-PEACE-

Weekend in Oslo

Hey guys!

Got back from a weekend in Oslo late last night. Saturday was the premiere for Eyes Wide Open, I'll give you a post about that night as soon as I get some pics. In the meanwhile I'll tell you what I did yesterday! I was a judge in a freestyle soccer battle hosted by Red Bull. I was one of the three judges, the two others were pro and I don't really know much about freestyle soccer, at first I was a little worried that I would judge it wrong, it's always best if the best guy wins. so I was judging who put on the best show and my vote did'nt really matter. I think it was only one time I did'nt vote for the same guy as the other judges so it went really well.
It was a cool experience, I've played soccer all my life and I watched a lot of movies on youtube of this stuff so I wasen't clueless I just don't know the technical difficulties of the different tricks.

Here's one of the judges warming up the crowd before the show started.

Active man right here

Ok, I woke up pretty late. After I got up I got in the car and drove to "mjøsen GC". It's a golf course 30 minutes from my house. After 18 holes I was on my way home to get something to eat before my work out, when my work out buddy called me and said he couldn't make it. Since we worked out yesterday I decided to ditch the weights, so I went for another 9 holes at "Hafjell GC" (golfcourse 300 meters from my house). 27 holes is like 15 Km (9.3 miles). With all the zig zaging I have to to do since I can't hit the ball straight it's probably more like 20 km (12.4 miles). With a 15 kg (33 lb) bag on your back it's harder than it sounds. After walking around for like 6 hours I was looking forward to come home and relax, then I got a text from a buddy of mine who wanted to kick my ass in Bowling. I was pretty tired, But I just can't turn down a challenge like that. What he forgot to tell me was that he's really not that good. Here's the result.






As you can see it wasen't that challenging. Tomorrow I have a CT scan at 9 o'clock. Friday Im linking up with fellow skiers Anders Backe and Christopher Frankum for a golf challenge hosted by Fri Flyt, saturday is the premiere for Eyes Wide Open and sunday im going to be a judge of a freestyle soccer competition hosted by Red Bull. Should be a fun weekend.

Good Night!

UFO ramping!

I drove home from Rødde last night, I figured that would be better than wasting half of a Friday driving. Now Im sitting in my bed and been doing that the whole day cause both of the cars are gone so I can´t do anything.
The trip was good and fun, there´s a lot of talent up there. I saw a lot of dubs, dub misty 14 (not on purpose), kangeroo japan to mute and a bunch of other stuff. One thing really stood out! this one guy dropped in on a....we call it a UFO, don´t know the word for it in English, You can see it on the pic above. yeah, he dropped in from the top gained a lot of speed and threw himself into a slightly over rotated Backflip. 5 minutes later he was on top again, dropped in, went off the jump and did a perfect double back. we were discussing if anyone has done a double back on a UFO before, no one there knew for sure. So until I see a video of it Im claiming to have witnessed the first UFO double back. He said he wanted to go for a trippel when they go back next week. Here´s my iphone clip of it.

I can see now that you can't really see anything in that clip. Looked a lot better on my phone. It was sick!!

All And all it was a good trip. I want to thank everyone at Rødde for letting me come And hang out!!

PEACE

Water ramping!

Today we got up at 6.45 AM. That was a problem for me since im used to...... Well, let's just say that after my neck injury I gotten used to sleeping in.
We ate some breakfast and then got in the car, drove to the water ramp set up. The boys and here is really stoked, it did'nt take them longer than 10 minutes after we got here untill I heard the first splash, then followed with a weird sound that reminded me of a wounded animal. I turned around and saw a guy lying flat on his back trying desperately to get some air down his lungs. I've had the Wind knocked out of me a couple of times so I know that it is really uncomfortable but usually pretty harmless. Sooo, I laughed my ass off;) I know it's not a nice thing to do but that's what you get when you try a rodeo 7 on your first ever water ramp jump, when we pointed out a million times before that it's very different than riding on snow so you should just take it easy and get used to it before you go crazy!!

Rødde Folkehøyskole

Hey guys!

Im currently located at Rødde Folkehøyskole (freestyle skiing academy).
Like last year Im here for a water ramping trip they do every year.


This is the head coach Eimund! I known Eimund for a while now, he was there when I did my first competition here in Norway and actually stood beside (below) me on one of my first podiums ever.


When I got here this evening Eimund had to go to a meeting so I figured I would go for a walk and check out what´s going on around here. I found a gym so I worked out for an hour.


After my work out I continued my little walk and found some pretty cool stuff like this stair set-up. it looks pretty sick.


A summer set-up on a rainbow!


a little rollarcoaster box.

They also had a minramp, a mountain bike drop and some other cool rails.
I have to get off the computer now. I´ve been pending between this blog update and facebook for two hours and it´s 4 and a half hour until I have to get up and go to the water ramps.

Good Night!
