Our blog has been quiet for a while but that's not the case at Nocopy! The winter season is here again and we are now preparing to show some hot news at the ISPO Winter fair in Munic, 1-4 of February 2009. Check http://www.ispo-winter.com for mor info about the fair. To be continued....!The winter season was over in most part of Sweden, I haven’t been standing on skis since the middle of May at the “Scandinavian Big Mountain Championship” I was missing it as hell!
It was in the middle of June I have been working for 2 weeks but now its weekend, not an ordinary weekend it was midsummer and a lot of people had gathered in Riksgränsen Sweden for the traditional Midsummer skiing, the snow was slushy and it was super hot in the sun, a perfect ending of the season
I started the day with mounting my new freeride 178 skis and taking my smelly boots on, then I walk to the chair lift that took me up to the ski area, electricity was in the air.
As I took my first turns I felt a little unused to the skis but after the first run I took them out to the backcountry, next to the rocks, drops and all the mud, the skis felt perfect for those conditions, easy handled next to rocks during drops, and stable in higher speed after drops,
Rock ON!
Facts: Height 185, Weight: 85 kg, started skiing at age 3, over 150 ski days per year.
