Sweden & Norway Trip

In the beginning of May, Frode and I drove from Oslo to Tandaadalen in Sweden for some last minute park shoots. The Swedish Nitro team and some other riders had a little photoshoot there. It was a fun time, and the stuff wasn't too big, a good thing right before the season is coming to an end. We only stayed there for two days before we drove back to Oslo. But we got the shots we needed ( I think). This was more of a photo trip as the jumps were on the smaller side, and sometimes it's cool just to get photos. Who minds doing slow spins once in a while? In this photo I'm getting interviewed by a journalist from VG, Norway's biggest newspaper. They came out to the shoot to see what a Swedish spring shoot looks like.


Here's a photo from the jump in Åre. I'm doing a bs 540 crail in the beautiful Swedish sunset.


Even though I ride for Toyota, I have to switch it up once in a while!


BS Air from a hip in Trysil, Norway. This was the second stop on our "tour".


This was after a shoot we did in a resort called Varingskollen. The resort is only half an hour from Oslo, and this was the last day anyone rode there. I was pretty tired here after doing some SW BS Rodeo 9's off the jump. But I got the shot ( I think)....

I've been with out internet access for a bit. I promise I will post some new photos soon! For now here is a photo from this photographer Chip Kalback. I met him at the Keystone shoot about a month ago. Nice mustache eh? hehe
