Well I guess this is my lucky month. I knew about the Playboard Cover but just found out about the new issue of OnBoard.
Thanks to Frodé for shooting both these photos!

Hope you enjoy,

Artic Challenge

I'm looking forward to doing this contest in my home town of Oslo!

2010 Oakley Arctic Challenge: 10 Riders Confirmed

Norway - The Oakley Arctic Challenge is pleased to announce our first ten confirmed riders for the 2010 event. These ten riders are some of the best all-around snowboards in the world hailing from Europe, Scandinavia, Canada and the US: Andreas Ygre Wiig, Torstein Horgmo, Mikkel Bang, Eero Ettala, Antti Autti, Peetu Piiroinen, Charles Reid, Sebastiant Toutant, Jake Blauvelt and Chas Guldemond.

In the coming months TAC will be announcing another 14 top pro-riders to the list of competitors on our web site Thearcticchallenge.com. Additionally, 16 final spots are open for amateur riders with a distinct desire to spend the most vital years of their lives in airports, hotels and rental cars. The riders can expect quite the experience in Norway for 2010 with the addition of a slopestyle event to the already world famous TAC quarterpipe.

As previously announced, TAC is providing double rooms for the top 24 invited riders. If opening a bottle of champagne with a friend in Oslo sounds tempting to you, then this is the year to join us for a New Years celebration.

Home sweet home!

I flew back home to Oslo yesterday after being out in Hawaii and the LA for a couple weeks. It feels good to be home again. I have a lot of things to take care of before I head out to do some Glacier riding in the next couple weeks.

I wanted to let everyone know, I'm officially on Twitter.com/AndreasWiig

You can now follow me day to day through Twitter and Facebook if you want to.

Hope everyone is enjoying the remaining days of summer! Winter is just right around the corner...
