USA

After a pretty good weekend in Vierli me and Ulrik flew out to the US, and ended up in Salt Lake City, where we found my car and Louies house... we chilled for a couple days, upgraded the soundsystem in my car, and had a wonderful first thanksgiving with the Vito´s.. there was alot of really good food and it was a really fun day, we played some cornhall but it was a bit cold, so we went in and Linn screwed us all over with these drinking games, but she lost the most..

Today we went up Park city to ride and we only got 4 runs in 2 hours cause of all the people but it was alot of fun anyway.. now we are still jet legged so its bedtime..

later

Vierli shit weather!

Sooo this contest is not having the best luck with the weather.. the training days we had really good conditions but now the wind is to strong and its all ice.. so its prosponed..

and Petter Kristiansen is looking for the good weather...

Vierli

Hey you all... Now i am in a little place called Vierli and as you see on the pic,, its in the middle of no where.. But Swag is arranging a contest here called Swag Maxit and its a slopestyle event with 3 spots for the Arctic challange.

there is alot of riders here and its raining but i think it will be a pretty sick weekend anyway, there is a small slope with 4 rail and 2 kickers and a t bar so you get a hundred lapa a day..

ulrik got a new haicut

and freddy Austbø bought a town..

Last day in Innsbruck

Today we woke up to poring rain and thought yeah we are not riding today, but Sani came and picked me up so I went riding anyway and I am glad I did. Cause today we where riding with all the Buron reps from all over europe testing out the new boards for 2011, and I figured out what boards I am gonna ride and I am stoked. Cause before I never tested boards, I just got the same as I had the year before. And also on the mountain it was not raining but snowing bigtime, and after a couple hours it cleared up and we got some pretty good turns in some fresh snow:) then down, got changed slept on the plane to vienna where I was supose to only have 30 mins, but now the flight got delayed so now I got time to write.

Flying home at 9 pm and then tomorrow I will go to Vierli for the Swag Maxit slopestyle :)

Epic night in Innsbruck:)

Hey all readers.. this was a crazy night.
And it all started with us all going to dinner after some meetings and stuff, Hasi, steffi and Cyril took us out to this reallycool restaurant it was like a bufeet eat as much as you want with sushi, all kinds of meat and fish raw and uncooked veggies and you just put on a plate whatever you want and then they cook it for you whatever style you choose.. so we all eat soo much and then Gabe hooked us all up with some snaps.. it wasnt to good..

after dinner we all went to play bowling, and it was alot of fun, my team won the first round and then it went downhill from there and espessially when in the last round, Sani got 250 points with 10 strikes.. unbeliveble..

and the bowling alley gave him a free beer for his good work in making all those pins fall..

after the loss in bowling and grilos pants getting big holes, we went to the bar weekender with everyone and also meet up with some of the US burton reps.. it ended up with some bottles of vodka and alot of dancing, watching a consert and just a really good time with alot of good people..

then this picture pretty much speaks for it self, Grilo pulling this pose and i am lucky and get those good colors in there,, it made my night.. :)

the band that played was some sweedish guys that i dont remember the name of but it was really good, kinda indy rock with a couple chill songs and some alittle more rough. i really enjoied that its always so much fun at conserts, when everyone is super into it and ust diggin the music.

Gabe hit out on the dance floor

cyril pulled some dance moves:)

and these guys i have no clue about, but they where makin out everywhere and i just had to take a picture,

and maurer gettin some love from his girlfriend Laura.

Now the night is over and i had so much fun and i will remember this one.. the day after we went up to stubai for some snowboarding and now me and grilo are just chilling in the hotel, getting ready for bed.

and just tell all your friends to come here and read check out pictures and see what me and all my friends are doing..

Sales meetings..

today me and some other guys on the burton team where a little outside Innsbruck for some sales meetings.. and i gotta say even though it was a really long day i am stoked to hae been ther, and seen how everything is learned about the product and all that kind of stuff.. so i am pretty stoked, and i got some new stuff:)

Now it is time to go to diner and then we are gonna go bowling later on..

check out this guy......

Lately and now!

Soo its been a while now.. just realised why.. cause the other day i was editing photos and when i got internet i was gonna post something. and then it took forever to uplode the pics so i figured the conection was bad. and tried different places. but now i realised that i forgot to make the pics smaller so thats why i couldnt upload them.. what a rookie haha..

but anyway since i havent posted anything lately i have some catching up to do.. and after London i flew straight to Costa Blanca in Spain to visit my grandfather, and chilled for a couple days with my dad. it was really good, it was warm and good weather, we had some really nice dinners and went to the casino for a night. Then on friday morning we packed up the rental and drove 500 km to Barcelona where there was going to be a World cup for the weekend. i came there and it was amazing. the jump was in the middle of the olympic stadium and the crowed was super good the started screaming when the first guy did a 360 so you can emagine a fullpacked stadium with spanish people when ulrik did a double frontflip..

after barcelona we flew home and i went and got more done to my tattoo so not i kinda have a sleeve, just need to shaddow it all up cause its mostly outlines. but Morten at Lucky 7 in Oslo is doing an amazing job with it all and its also opening a new tattoo studio inmy home town Hamar called lucky 7 aswell and its a friend of my guy witch is really good too. so finally we got a good one in Hamar..
well now i am gonna chill here at Vienna airport and i am gonna try and update mere often now hopefully everyday.. and maybe have some contests or something so you guys can win shit and it will be more fun your you guys to read whats going on and also more fun for me to write..

here is pics from my last trip..

Good weekend in London

saturday was the Fis world cup and I didnt qualifi, neither did marko and chris but we had 4 norwegians, Ulrik, Gjermund, Sondre and Morten.. they all kinda fell and ended up from 7th til 10th.. but they for sure went for it and made a good show for everyone..
and then we all partyed on saturday with conserts and free drinks at the event and then to this club called the fabric witch was insane. it was the biggest most techno filled club i have ever seen and ofcourse it was going off on halloween.. so a good night i would say..

then for sunday we where supose to have this team event and a rail jam. cause of all the rain and wind the night before they had no snow for the team jam so we only had the railjam in the evening witch was pretty fun.. I got 2nd and best trick and ulrik got 1st and crowed pleaser so we both got two new phones each..

Austria again!

After my last trip to austria and hintertux i went home for a week, Hung out with my friends and family, partyed a little and went to the gym. Then i talked to Cyril and he said come back to Austria. so i came.

Landed in Munich Airport and there i found a wall that i know Jørgen would kill to have at his bedroom.. yes a BWM front wall.

then at the trainstation i had to wait for my train so i figured i´ll try and get a nice picture of the tracks. and i was almost in Jenbach where i was gonna get picked up.

I went riding in Hintertux for two days and then i came to innsbruck for another two days to do a lifestyle shoot and have fun and also an interview. after the shoot I took, Hasi, Linn, Gril, MU, Hitch and Andro out for dinner, and since i was paying MU got the whole menu, hehe. anyway it was an amazing dinner with alot of fun I even ended up drawing the whole World, or atleas i tried to.

here is cyril in shoot mode

and grilo in Model mode

and MU, well i dont know what mode this is...

after the two days in innsbruck i went back to hintertux to just find shit weather for two days, so i decided to go to stubai for saturday night and sunday cause it was supose to be good up there and it was, super fun park and it was also Nina´s B-day so it was a party on saturday too, with drunken Masters playing all night..

now its time for hotel breakfest and a flight back home to Norway before i have to go to London on thursday..

Good week...

This last week in Innsbruck and Hintertux has been pretty awsome..

it started of with the Burton premiere witch I bet all of you have read about already, and I also gotta learn to take pics like that for the premiere in Oslo tomorrow.. witch everyone should attend.
anyway, after the premiere I got picked up at the hotell to go to Hintertux and meet up with Chris and Grilo, and on the way we got stopped on the road of all these people taking there cows down from the mountain, it´s this tradition up here, and they dress up the cows and follow them down the streets form the mountains for winter and then they all go and get Hammered..
and this is what the cows look like!!!

After seeing the cows and finally getting to hintertux we got to the hotell I mentioned we stayed there for two nights, and guess what.. Up in the mountains of austria i ran into my good friend Jossi from New Zealand.. small world.
but back to the story of my week, so we shredded for a couple days, then Grilo had mad shit to do back home in slovenia and Chris wanned back to stockholm to chill before Freestyle Berlin witch is this weekend. So I took the train back to Innsbruck and when i got there i was so stoked cause i was sitting outside the trainstation waiting for the bus to the Burton office and it was 25 degrees hot and these two homeless dudes where playin there guitar and singing while everyone walking to and from school, work or just walking around innsbruck where super happy, It´s good to see people still enjoing the last bit of summer. untill the police came and thru the homeless guys away and ruined the good tention for everyone. But then my bus came anyway so I took it ofer to the burton office where everyone was having cake casue it was Hasi´s birthday on sunday. i chlled there for a little then me and Cyril went to the skatepark and met up with Sani for a little session then Sani took me home to his place where i stayed for the week..

burton office!

after dinner and a guitar hero session I found out MU ( Maurer) where coming in to town, so he came and picked me up for riding in teh morning the next days up in hintertux, where i met Botner, Evensen and alot of other buddies and we all just shredded in the super warm weather and had a good time..

27..... i am so not looking forward for Norway witch is the minus side already..

anyway, the coolest thing this week was wednesday night, Sani and his friends took me to this super sick bar where Surfaholics where playing, and it was a really good consert, I never heard of the band before but it was sick live. and then we stayed there for some drinks before we moved on to the next place..

the band

and yeah moving on, we went to this other bar witch was packed of people witch i didnt really expect, but i enjoied it.. so we all hung there for a while and had some more drinks, got a little bit drunk and when the lights came on at two and the bar was closing i was expecting a walk home, but NO.. offcourse there was more bars, and as i learned, in Innsbruck you can party 24/7 all year, cause they have a bar everyone goes to for each day of the week and some of them are open to noon the next day.. pretty crazy, but anyway we went downstairs to this club and on a wednesday night when people got work and school the next day, and i was a huge club filled with people partying, dancing, drinking, making out and just having a great time. so we found some of Sani´s friends who decided to buy two bottles of vodka so you can all guess how it turned out..
PRETTY DAMN GOOD.....

but the coolest thing all night was this:

the toilet!

Innsbruck and Hintertux...

On friday the premiere of the burton movie at a place called MAX in Innsbruck. there was me, Grilo, Chris, Freddy, Sani and Hasi, Cyril and the rest of the people working for Burton Europe, we all went to this Pizza place for dinner at 8 and then we walked over to the place where the party was gonna be..

it took a while for it to fill up since it could easy take a couploe thousand people, but close to 01.00 it was alot of people.. before the movie started John had this outfit(pic) and introduced us all with asking us a few question witch i think everyone thought was pretty akward, but worst for chris, cause when he was introduced the whole crowed was yelling SANI, SANI, SANI.. hehe

john in a Burton racing outfit..

Hasi was showing how strong he is after dinner by lifting this chair the hard way,
and i must say i was pretty impressed, Grilo and Chris had no chance on getting it up.

and then Chris is showing of his G10 skills with taking photos like this one of Grilo.
so i gotta learn how to do that..

When we thru out free stuff the whole place went crazy, as you can see they
will do anythin for a t-shirt, love the energy.

Chris showing off his boxerless style..

chillin with a drink befor i went to the party..

and then i am partying..

Lexi was around so she joined the party..

after the party I woke up a little hungover, met up with cyril and his Girl and they took
me up to Hintertux where i met up with Grilo and Chris..
and our friend Werni, his family has a hotel up here so he hooked us up at the hotel. this place is super nice with good dinner, gym, hot tubs, sauna and a swimming pool..

Today we went up Hintertux and after we where chilling in the sun before we took the gondola down..

now i am chilling and trying to figure out what todo for the rest of this trip since grilo and Chris are leaving tomorrow..
