Getting it done in Norway
On the way up to Folgefonna resort we found spot for roadgap.it was quite ¨skimmer¨and landing was pretty flat but in the end it worked out ok
We have been riding and filming out of pounds pretty much whole season.during this trip to Folgefonna I was the only one of our crew who brought backcountry gear....I guess Joel Lahti thought that we are gonna ride park here.Im glad he wanted to borrow my shovel and let me give instructions how to build inrun :-)
JOEL LAHTI likes Lion chocolate and PETJA PIIROINEN likes Lions...6-1 2011 never forget...

People at MSR hooked me up with these MSR snowshoes! so much more easier to hike in backcountry especially when the snowbase doesn´t hold anymore! this particular model is called Lightning Ascent.the name says it all...these shoes are so light and easy to use! more info check out:http://cascadedesigns.com/en/msr/snowshoes/category
5 days in Riksgränsen
- I have been filming in Riksgränsen for 4 days now and tommorrow is going to be our last day riding.first day we were riding at the resort and did some fun windlip stuff
This zone is also in Subjekt Haakonsen which pretty much meant that it was first zone I wanted to go.My filmer Teemu knows Riksgränsen area well so he has been great guide for us during this trip
Hike to this spot took us about 20minutes. this zone is full of pretty cool features.windlips,drops and great landings!
I don´t like shoveling at all! I rather ride and hit natural hits but this spot was so cool that we ended up working it allmost whole day.then weather came in but hopefully we are still able to go hit it.
