Laax – Breck in pictures

The afterparty at European Open was really fun though and I only got 1 hour of sleep before I headed back to Breckenridge, Colorado where I am right NOW!

Here is some photos from my trip:

7 AM, train to Zurich - been traveling for 2 hours

Zurich - 5 hours deep

Zurich Airport, Gate E 32. Flying Zurich - Newark, NJ

Manhattan (I´ve never been in New York...)

New York looks pretty... BIG

Mayrhofen

I have now skied for 2 days since I got hurt 2.5 weeks ago – and I suck! Im trying to do the right thing and just ski around and do safe-tricks, but nothing feels safe right now. I´ve got a whole new setup; new skis, new clothes, inserts in my boots (so my banged up heel gets more support) and new mittens.

I´m not complaining about new stuff but everything just feels weird and now, because of the mittens, I also have to relearn “all” my grabs… I bought mittens to force myself into doing 4 finger grabs instead of 2 finger grabs.

Anyways… Im hanging out here in Mayrhofen with Nikolaj Jungersen and we are trying to get a few shots for RAD films next movie Double Up. We are just skiing the park here and thing are coming along slowly. The park here is really good and a lap only takes about 3 minutes so it wears me out pretty fast since I have just spend over 2 weeks in the bed healing my heel and knee. Im tired and confused so I´m going to cut this update short and post a few photos…

we need to get up earlier tomorrow!

Nikolaj is stoked - even when the cue is long...

Now you know what im gonna look like on the hill for the next couple of weeks

I hate the Austrian kitchen...

but I love my indoor tanning-spot!

later HJ PS: I dont know why the pictures have been turned, but I cant be asked to fix it right now.

First day on the hill

Chris getting his hair cut

Just before I went up to the hill today I got my new camera in the door. I charged it for a little bit, and then I went up to breck. Unfortunately the battery didnt hold up in the cold temperatures here, so I didnt get any good on-hill shots…

Breckenridge is awesome! I was just getting to know the park, so I was taking it easy all day. I think I did about 100 360´s and a bunch of sw 5´s. Its gonna be awesome when we start getting used to speed and how the jumps are build – big difference from what I am used to!

When I got home I fooled around with the camera all night, to try and learn how it works… the shot above is my best shot of the day, I think.

I shot this image in honor of my sisters 26th birtday.

Tillykke AK!

Tillykke AK!

Going to Keystone tomorrow, wohoo.
