Seeing reality the way it is supposed to!
Sometimes TV and internet don’t give you the right picture of what’s “really” going down at that particular time. With ski and snowboard beeing seen on TV, most of the jumps look rather small and booring, while in real life they are huge and scary...
I have been skiing a lot lately, and rarely get to spend time at home. Today I have been packing my bags for tomorrow and hanging out at home. Soft afternoon.
Sometimes, skiing every day like there was no tomorrow has it’s price. I guess I have will have to pay that price today and it’s called homework. I’m having my finals in 3 weeks, which I think it might be smart to study for. So even though it’s bluebird and no wind outside, I am burried in a...
Home sweet home is what they say, and I truly agreed today. Sore body and a well deserved day off. Drove from Kongsberg this morning, and flew from Sandefjord to Trondheim. Had a quick coffee with some friends at work (airport), before I headed home to the couch.
Took a few pictures in the air...
I can’t believe how fast they have edited this video. So much sick skiing today, and it looks like my switch 12 is something I can use for future purposes. Thank you, and enjoy!
Snowstock BigAir-contest went down in Kongsberg, Norway today. Sick jump, perfect weather, skiing with friends and a big crowd!
Finally things starting to pay off when I ski every day!
I was super-nervous about the jump this morning. A lot of speed needed and the snow was pure ice. I did not...
I’ve been working on organizing the next few weeks tonight. Stressful for sure, but absolutely worth it when I get to ski.
The next two weeks in March will look something like this:
* 2-4th Fly to Oslo and do the Bigair contest in Kongsberg called...
To make things a little more fun, I brought the Contour GPS out to play with today. And yes, I did ski, also.
Enjoy!
Big up to Funäsdalen in Sweden for providing the best park around! I had so much fun the last two days, and I can not even remember last time skiing was this addictive! We got a little rain and bad visibility at lunch yesyerday, but that didn’t stop us from skiing 6 hours straight.
We have been...
After I got home from the Jib Academy-tour I had one day off to gain some energy to ski again. But when the forecast is like the picture above, skiing is not an option. Hello? As far as I know we are still in February?
That is why me and Christer Mathisen jumped into the car early today to...
Well, I have been thinking of doing a new tricktip for two years, but never got the time. Today I had a little time while beeing at home, and I made this. Hopefully it will help you do this trick, or maybe it will make you do it better if you allready know how to do the trick.
This is MY and...
If you have any innsight in skiing at all, you’ve allready figured out that this is bullshit. There is no glamour in skiing, only fun and hard work. I got a reminder of that today.
I was “only” going to hit the rail outside my house a couple of times today, when I found the rail totally burried...
It’s been a long week with a lot of fun things that went down. Salomon Jib Academy is over, and we have 9 finalists for video-finals. Our photographer on the tour, Fredrick Kihle shot a bunch of photos of everyone. Here are some of them!
Ringkollen. Getting things set-up.

Good morning world! Coffee in the cup and the World Championship Skiflying on the TV. Chilling with my team-manager at his apartement in Oslo, waiting to leave for the Airport to go home.
I was setting up my youtube-account against my blogpage on Facebook, when I stumbled upon an old video...
When I am writing this I am back in Oslo after a very long day on Salomon Jib Academy at Geilo.
Just about 50 skiers was on for a good session in the wind at Geilo, good thing it calmed during the day.
Early morning in the Geilo park.
Picture is taken in the afternoon. No wind and sunny...
Reblogged from Steffen Hamre:
Got a few laps through the park at Dombås with a Countour Roam on top of my head. If you are a skier this might make sence. If not, well then get prepared to be dizzy. Worst part is that this view is allmost identical to what every skier see through their goggles...
Got a few laps through the park at Dombås with a Countour Roam on top of my head. If you are a skier this might make sence. If not, well then get prepared to be dizzy. Worst part is that this view is allmost identical to what every skier see through their goggles. Not so easy as it might look...
7 hours of skiing yesterday, sore feet but fun day for sure!
Salomon Jib Academy went down at Dombås skiresort, which was really cool. The park is the way it is supposed to be, with fun rail-setup and well-designed jumps. 3 jumps and 3 rail features was what the skiers had to choose from in Jib...
Wow! Ringkollen was awesome. Long day in the end, but it was all worth it with the skiing that we got done, and all the happy faces!
Elling from Salomon picked me up at 10 am in Oslo, before we drove up to Ringkollen. Not far really, just a 30/40 minute drive.
Together with Øystein Bråten...
