Nearly 1 meter of snow dropped here in Jackson Hole over the last few days which can bring some epic riding to The North American Snowkite Tour that is starting today and will continue for the next 4 weeks. More updates to come.
Short edit from SKM
1st overall in the 2012 SKM! Its been a great week and a nice start of the season in Col Du Lautaret. Due to very icy conditions and a contest area where it’s only possible to do switch tricks am I very happy to finish 1st and not at least without being injured. Romain Luppi tore his ACL in the single elimination… lets hope he will be back soon!
Day 2 with competition is over and I am happy to finished 1st. in the single elimination. The comp went head to head as following: Quarter final VS Laurent Guyot, semifinal VS Marec Zach and the final VS Guillaume Chastagnol. Double elimination is starting tomorrow where I need to defend the 1st place. Stay tuned for more updates!
Been here in Col Du Lautaret along with Bjørn Kaupang and Kari Schibevaag for a few days now. Its been great to be back meeting all the pioneers of the sport. The wind hasn’t been very reliable the last two days, but today we manage to do a few heats in the competition. I made it to the quarter finals before the wind died completely. New day with hopefully more wind tomorrow!

Some photos deserve to see daylight instead of being stowed away. All photos captured by Vegard Breie / vegardbreie.no at the Folgefonna Glacier of Norway.
