Soooo, Hey… Its been a couple of days since the lasts time I was on here… over the course of the last couple of days truly feels like a year!
Right now im sitting in a small apartment in Avoriaz, France. Im here to compete at the Danish Freeski Champoinships which are starting tomorrow night with a Big Air competition.
Inside info: The Big Air has turned into a heads-up RAIL SESSION because they dont have enough snow for a 25 meter jump in downtown Avoriaz… (there is not enough snow in the world to make a 25 meter kicker in the town of Avoriaz).
So heads-up rail session tomorrow… I signed up today, but to be honest I am not sure if I am actually competing. Here is why – I think a heads-up competition on rails are kinda pointless since I feel like the level of riding will have to be brought way down to be safe enough for a heads-up. There is no way you (I) can ever be as safe on rails as on jumps on harder tricks…
Next comp i am entering will be “DM” slopestyle on thursday.
In 3 of the last 4 Danish Champion slopestyle (ever since i started skiing park) i´ve gotten 2nd place at this event. As I have gotten better at park skiing the importance of DM slopestyle as gradually become more insignificant, but this year I really want to win – not the that makes any real difference, I just really WANT TO WIN.
You know what, I actually dont have too high hopes for this one/this year either.
The jumps that were supposed to be 18-22 meters are actually 10 meters, and the park all-around is just crazy. Tons of features and really steap. Its the same for everyone though, so it´ll probably be all good – its just a little disappointing to see the park here when everything you hear is that it is really good. I dont think it is, sorry.
Ill upload a POV form the park tomorrow, so you can see what the park looks like…
till then

Hey HJ BOOM… Just take it easy, it´s only “DM” and the set up are for sure the best the danish team can create in Avoriaz for now. But ok that you are a little confused over the small set up
….. good luck
