Teamtraining

The last couple of days have been kinda shitty. The water has gone up and down a lot, and the lineup is crazy. Since I've been a bit tierd i have stod by a day of padling now. I really think i needed that to get back to where i was before training started.
Today the teamtraining started and the water was up, by a lot. I absolutely Love'd it! i stuck airloop, spacegodzillas, split wheel, cartwheel. and at the end i almost stuck a perfect tricky whu, to bad i flushed...
Other than that i'm fine! all though my shoulder has turnd red cause of a sunburn. Not to sure if I like that...

Plattling

Finaly arrived at plattling :) been here for two days now, and it's awesome. The flow is really good, all though it is dropping fast. Hopfully it will go up a bit before world, or stop dropping. Training for me right now is good, I've got to do a lot of different tricks and i feel like I can stick the most of them in the comp. I've also got two tricks that i'm not a 100% sure of, wich i will be focusing on the next couple of days before teamtraining starts. My plan right now is get those two (trciky whu and Mc Nasty) up to a 100%, and then when teamtraining starts i will be working on my competitionrun.

Kongsberg

Have for the last couple of days been spending my time in grettefoss (kongsberg). I've been training really hard on my Tricky who and i finaly stuck it after 3 days with intensive trainin on only that trick! Other than that i'm feeling allmost ready for worlds. No doubt a little bit nervous, but i guess that's a normal thing, aye? I'm leaving for Worlds in plattling soon and i'm so excited! it's gone be a lot of fun.

since i've been slacking a bit on mye updates here is a link to some of the many things I've been up to this season so far.

Plattling!!!

Been in plattling for a couple of days now, and I love it! The waters a bit low, but its still great! loving the sun here aswell, although my skin is not that big of a fan. Turning red...
Padling is also great, i got my new Vajda boat. wich is by the way super super sick. Everything is so easy to throw around. I've also been working on my Mc Nastys. Stuck a couple and have a lot of attemts where I am realy close.
Tomorrow i will be trying to film a bit so i can make a short little edit! Prepare your self to get your mind blown away.I will also try to put up some fotos!

Slalom and Rolling

This weekend was pretty mutch epic! drove from Lillehammer on the friday down to Kongsberg. Spent the night at the Heggems, with cake, taco and movie. On Saturday Kari, Halvor, Tora and my self drove down to Sandefjord for some slalom training. Was for sure a learningfull experience. At the end of the trainingsession we had a litle competition, where i placed 4th (not bad taking in concideration that i don't do slalom) out of 9 i think.
On the Sunday I joind Kari, Tora and Øystein for some roll clinics. super fun seeing all the super stoked up' n coming kids!
Padleseason is on soooooon!

When it comes down to padling I have been working on a new tricks called Tricky Woo. It seems to be really hard, F*@k! All though I am getting close. just missing the last Cartwheel. finally got my orbit down.
This weekend I'm going down to Sandefjord for skalomtraining. I don't do that mutch of a slalom, but I guess it will be good for me.

Top 5 elver (I Norge)

5 plass: Etna

Beskrivelse:

Etna er en typisk norsk creek. Den starter ved Etnesenn og avslutter ved Hestkinnfossene. Elva har en del pooldrops og tekniske stryk og er ganske kontinuerlig. Strekningen er ganske lang så du burde ta med nistepakke og på-beregne deg god tid.

Vanskelighetsgrad: 3+ til 4.

4 plass: Raundalselva (Urdland strekkninga)

Beskrivelse:

Urdlan strekkninga er definitivt en av mine favoritt turer. Den er har ganske mye vann og kan til tider være kraftig. Elva blir også ansett som "playrun" og kan padles i både play og creekbåter. Noe av det som gjør den til favorittelven min er at vannet er så klart og fint, og den flotte naturen. Når det kommer til vannstand tåler den ganske mye vann.

Vanskelighetsgrad: 3 til 3+ (mye vann -4)

3 plass: Frya

Beskrivelse:

Frya er definitivt en av Norge's perler. Den går i et dypt juv og er en utrolig fin elv generelt. Den er en veldig grunn og steinete elv med mye bra teknisk padling. Hvis du er uerfaren på curlere er dette en kjempe bra plass og lære seg å takle dem.

Vanskelighetsgrad: 4

2plass: Krutåa

Beskrivelse:

Krutåa er en veldig stor creek. Den har mye vann og mange store høl som har lyst å tygge på deg. Elva går i juv til tider og krever store baller. Det er en del semi-mustruns (veeeldig vanskelig å bære).

Vanskelighetsgrad: 4 til 5

1plass: Ula!!!

Beskrivelse:

Ula er klart min favoritt. det er en kjempe fin tur i norsk natur med mange fine små drop. Ula har en del små og store drop og er en av Norges morsomste småcreeker. Den har ikke veldig stort volum men dropper en del høydemeter.

Vanskelighetsgrad: 3 (4,5 punkt)
