Switzerland has always been on my travel bucket list, and I just spent some time exploring the Swiss Alps, and the Saas Fee Village was beyond anything I could have imagined. This Swiss village is a must-see destination if you are traveling to Switzerland. If you travel to Saas Fee in Switzerland, the one thing that will thrill you is the unbelievable glacier, that dominates the high of Saas Fee. This Swiss Village I located at 1800m with the ability to ski in 3550 meters, makes Saas fee a go-to destination year round. Switzerland is a magnificent land to travel to, so be sure to do some research before you decide what destination you chose. I can thoroughly recommend this county, it has so much to offer, and are perfect located in the heart of Europe.

Teaching kids to ski - it all begins here. it is all baout playing in the snow. thererore playing is teaching. that is key to succes. So go out and play in the snow.
This is gålå and this is where my brother has a cabin.
We are here to relax for a couple of days. And yes, we got stuck with the car, but luckily help where near by.
The prpuse of this trip was to get away for a few days, and get emma out in the snow to play and have fun while learning what skiing is allabout. Having fun together.

So most of the time we just went out to play in the snow and enjoy beauty of the winter cold of Norway.

This cabin is located just near the local ski slope, but it is easier to drive down to the start of the lift where the kids slope is and start there with her.

The winter wonderland of Norway, is prettier than ever, and gålå is a magical place.

WHEN SKIING CHANGES YOU LIFE.
After 19 years i got my dad back to skiing and this completely changed his life. After been of the skis for 19 years, my dad needed a bit of instruction and with my help he immediately picked up the new teknik that makes carving skis a blast to ski on.
Now I have a hard time getting him of.
He is 68 years old, and this shows that even it you are over 60, it is no problem skiing.
So pick up those skis and get out there and have fun.

THE CHAIRLIFT TRICK & TESTING THE 17/18 SOUL7

We got our hands on the brand new Rossignol Soul 7 hd. Thet have completely redesigned it for this season.
The honeycomb goes longer down, reducing the weight of the ski, and then it has been reenforced, make it more stiff. It should perform better on piste, than the previous, but I like the playfulness of the old one more. No dought, it is a fantastic ski, but for my kind of skiing I like the old one more.
I would still like to try it out with a freestyle binding, because til will make et more flexible.

The chairlift trick, is when you need to use your hands, and want to get you poles out of the way, without dropping them. Stick them under you leg, so you will be sitting on them, and wolla, you are free to use your hands.
Very important is, that you will have to remove them before lifting up the bar, or the will be in the way of the footrest.

That is it for or 4 day season start in Sölden, Austria.

Respect the mountains & ride safe.

FULL SPEED & BROKEN BONES // THE ACCIDENT //

Full speed & broken bones // The Accident //
My friend uffe, crashes on ski and brakes his ankle in to pices. Se the story

When skiing accidents happens, and it did. My friend Uffe came down the groomed run, with a lot of speed, and hit a big natural curv on the piste. He flew about 10 meters, and crashed. His bindings did not release in properly, so he twisted his knee, and broke his ankle, with 2 fractures.


After getting picked up by a snow scooter and taken down to the hospital. It was clear that he need surgery on this one. The next day he was taken to a private clinic, where he got surgery. At the clinic MedAlp the staff was very professional, and they see these injuries all the time, så the knew right away what to do. He will be out for about 6 weeks, and then there will be som rehab and training after that. He probably won’t be back on ski this season, but should fully recover for next year.

The DIN setting on your bindings is very important. Make sure that it is set correctly for the kind of skiing you are doing. Also maintain your binding, it needs to be in mint condition every time. Do you have a ski that is a couple of years old, then check every ting, and adjust it properly. If you do not know how to do it, go to your local ski shop, and let them help you.

Before the accident, we hiked a closed piste, and got a good powder run on that. The first part of the hike was very hard, because, the snow was very deep. My friend Nico, sank in at some point, and could not feel ground under him, a bit scary, but we could easy help him out. Again, safety is very important, and do not go out of bounds alone. If we had not been there, Nico had might not been able to get out him self. But we got up there, and had a great run down.

Respect the mountains and enjoy.
