In danger of giving a lot of skiers even more skiing-abstinenses, here's a clip from one of the easiest accessable powderruns last season. Right under the chairlift in Voss Resort. Very fun run! This day me managed to get two runs there before anyone else. One of my first runs on the new Black Crows Nocta. And one of many of the memorable runs last season in Norway. Looking forward to more runs like that on the Nocta upcoming season!! And if you hear some whistling in the background of the video, your correct, it's just me having a good time whistling away:-)

Fat Tire Festival in Hemsedal
Fat Tire Festival in Hemsedal happened this weekend. Took a day of from school friday, so I could get to Hemsedal for some riding also on Friday. Few riders (we were actually only four riders on friday) meant that you absolutely did not have to stand in line. But heavy rain from 1 pm made the experience pretty wet. On Saturday I woke up to much better weather, and was standing ready when the lifts opened 10 am. On Saturday we where alot more people, I think maybe 50-60 persons where riding. The weather was really good all day, until the lifts closed. Then it started raining again. The video is from my last run of many runs this day. Sorry for the low resolution.
Hope you enjoyed the video!

Sogndal, freeride and fun!
Sogndal Freeride was last weekend. We started early Friday morning. The qualification run went pretty well until the last drop. The trees on the exit were standing denser than I thought. So I had some trouble on my exit, and had a little fall in the landing. I was on second place before the final day. The final day I charged hard at the top, and it went well. But after my big drop I was turning hard to lose some speed, and then accidentally crossed my skis. I probably lost the victory in that mistake. Then I got too far down after the fall, and lost the rest of my line. I got second place after the two days. Considering my two far from perfect runs it’s a good result.
On Sunday everyone was leaving Sogndal, but I decided to stay here for some more days. And I definitively don’t regret that. We had good skiing on both Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday became a resting day after a good concert with Kings of Lien (yes, Lien) on Tuesday night. Last night we got some more snow here, so I think tomorrow is going to be a good day skiing. Probably the whole weekend here in Sogndal will be awesome. It is really a nice place to be, so I’m actually considering studying here from this fall.
Next freeride competition up is Voss Freeride in two and a half weeks. I am really looking forward to that as well. Next up is maybe Alperittet this weekend, a timed race down a mountain. Ski yah!
Video of my two runs. Raw and uncut without music. Enjoy.

A short video from today
I was taking pictures for Helly Hansen today with Johan Wildhagen. I borrowed a pair of alpine skis and Helly Hansen clothes. In between the photographing I also got to do some filming with my GoPro. So here is a short edit from today.

Photoshooting and powderskiing in Voss, Norway
The plan was going to the alps the 10th of January, but heavy snow on the west coast brought me to Voss in Norway instead. First I just moved my planeticket, but now I just let it go. Just staying in Norway until the conditions in the alps gets better. I have been in Voss for an epic week now, and have taken a lot of photos with both Sverre Hjørnevik (www.digitalnatur.no) and Benjamin Hjort (www.hjortmedia.com). We had amazing conditions this whole week, and got to do a lot of fun stuff. On Sunday it started raining, and it still is. But that's actually not necessarily a bad thing, we will get a much more stable snowpack when the weather gets colder again. And the weatherforecast says cold weather and snow, so this might just be the start of some more epic days here in Voss! Here are some pictures from Benjamin in Voss Resort, a little videoclip of Ole Kristian Årmot on one of our powderdays in Myrkdalen, and a GoPro clip of me going down Bodegaen in Voss.
