I’ll make “a end of season” post one of these days, since my winter season is officially over…
I am really lazy these days, so it wont be right now.
But I wanna share this video though. I have been meaning to post it for like 2 months, but never got to it… anyways here it is!

By far one of the best videos I have seen this year!

For everyone who haven’t seen this edit, you are in for a threat.
And for everyone else check out www.myfriendisapro.com… I can’t believe they made this such a big deal, but I’m glad they did – it’s freaking hilarious.

I promised I would upload an edit as soon as possible… and this is not meant as a tease or anything, but it is all done. But apparently vimeo has a alot of traffic so they spend a long time converting ones uploads? I didn’t know this since I’m new to all this website and uploading stuff…
I’m sorry but the post will have to wait till tomorrow – I’ll post it around 5pm CET…
While you wait for the edit (if you are even interested) you should check this music video out if you haven’t already. I’ve liked the song for quite a while and this brand new music video is really awesome.
Artsy, original, urban, a dominating beat and kinda interesting lyrics… Just how I like it.

Do a online Kid Cudi search. He has made some cool stuff…
See you tomorrow.

Lets take it back a little bit… When I landed in Oslo yesterday my skis obviously came out last so that my 10 minute margin to make the bus from Oslo og Hemsedal went straight out the window… So i had to hang out in the city for a few hours which was actually really nice since traveling takes so much energy out of you when you are sick..!
Lots of snow in oslo...
I really wanna go back to Oslo as soon as possible and get some rails on film, but I’ll have to wait and see about that.
Today i woke up (thank god) to pretty much the same weather I have woken up to for the last 2 weeks or so… Grey skies and a bit of fresh snow. But this time there was no wind, and I was back “home” in Hemsedal!
looking out the window at 10am
I went straight up to the hill and met up with some friends right away… It’s so nice to be back because you can just go out, and there is always someone good you can ride with so you get right into doing tricks you wouldn’t do right away if you were by your self. They almost have the park all done now so it’s super good (forgot to take pictures, sorry. I really need to get into blogging mode), and with the new snow the landings were pretty soft. Such a good day to come back and just get to know the park again!..
On to the big update…
I gave myself a deadline to have this blog ready mid-December to be able to keep people up to date during my winter season this year, but of course that didn’t happen! I spend way too much time trying to figure out how I wanted to do it and how I wanted it to look… as you can see i finally settled with a design, and even thought i haven’t made it myself as I wanted to I have to say I’m pretty stoked on it – and I hope you are too..!
If you were wondering why i write in English its pretty simple. I was born and raised Greenland, I’ve lived in Denmark for a few years, and now i live in Norway – so to be able to keep everyone up to date English was the way to go. Plus English sounds so much cooler then any of the Scandinavian languages, so I thought writing in English would make me sound all cool and stuff…
I spend the last month or so in France. I did some small danish comps and got a few shots in the bag.
The trip was alright… I’m having a hard time staying positive about it even thought i had a lot of fun… It started out in Avoriaz where the annual Danish Championships are held. I went down there 1 week early to get some used to the jumps and what knot, but the park wasn’t even open. Luckily it dumped 1 meter of snow the day i got there so we went out and build a BC booter on day 2 and got to hit it the day after. It was pretty much my first real day in the back country and it was really fun, but a lot of work! here’s an edit RAD films made from the day we hit the jump…
I couldn’t figure how to embed it, so here is the link.

If you like the song (I can’t get enough of it) check out Ou Est Le Swimming pool… they are awesome!
After almost 2 weeks in Avori-ass i went over to Val Thorens with my sister and Greenlandic super shredder Michael Damgaard.
MD - sorry about the quality. All these photos are taking are taken with my phone..
Val Thorens was a disaster… We were there for 2 weeks and the weather was horrible for 13 days! the only really good day we had there was the last one – but that day was so good we almost forgot all the bad ones, almost.
The last week there was Frostgun week. We build a huge jump for the Frostgun Invitational, but because of the weather I only hit it a few time with some straight airs and the big air comp was canceled – it sucked big time! Mads and Troels sacked up and did some spins, but is was super gnarly!
here’s an edit from the last day in Val T

so yeah, that was the last trip i was on, and now that the blog is up and running be sure to look out for more updates real soon.
