Yesterday i went to a movie-premiere of Ruffriders 7 wich is a swedish movie with snowmobiling, fmx and stupid shit.

Pretty cool event with fmx shows, drifting, live bands and then the actual movie wich was great.

Today i rode moto with Niklas & Mr. Källström.

Pissed them of a bit with some extreme-enduro...good times

Hopefully i can do the Avalanche in Åre next season. Check TV-Åres edit.

Not much going on at the moment.

Been riding a lot on the moto. Done a bit of xc-riding in the woods and  trying to work out the plans for 2012-season.

Did a little photoshoot with Mattias in the rain last week. Some epic A.M-shots will be out soon...

There is a lot of confusion around wich series/races to do with the new Freecaster-series but time will tell. I would definetly like to attend the new series but it has to fit in the schedule aswell and at the moment nothing is decided around our team so i´m on stand-by at the moment.

Off-season came around faster then i thought. It´s great to do whatever you want for a while but it is easy to get a bit bored if you don´t keep busy!



Working a bit today then time to hit some jumps on the hardtail. Sketchy!

lördagen den 8:e oktober 2011

Spent yesterday at the office actually mostly in the workshop fixing my bike up a bit and then went home changed oil on the moto and went to a sandy little track with Niklas & two friends. We managed to get an hour of riding in before it got dark.

I felt real rusty first but got into it a bit and did a small moto at the end. So good to just roost the corners and learn how the 350 handles in the sand!

Today we went to a big propper track in Rättvik and rode moto. I was almost a bit scared the first few laps as i haven´t been on a propper hardpacked track with big jumps & stuff for a year. I have just rode enduro and our little practice track on the new bike.


When i got around how to actually not jump like a goon on the moto again i felt pretty good and ended the day with a 25 min moto. So pumped!

I know... I´m a mountainbiker....So tomorrow i´m going to ride some All mountain!

Weather today was so good with sunshine and "warm" but i guess it´s over soon so let´s just make the best of it!

First snow hit Åreskutan today

I had a freezing xc-ride up there this morning but it was good fun on the way down!

söndagen den 2:e oktober 2011

Just won the Scandinavian cup finals in Åre.

Pretty happy with it i really forced myself to ride SPD´s for the race to do some serious practice with them on a propper and muddy track.

It´s been a great weekend in the village and we managed to get some riding in on the rest of the mountain aswell so definetly a good end to the season.

They made a few small changes to the track wich were good but it was decided that we would start a bit further down the mountain then normal wich made the track just about 3 minutes instead of 4.30.

After a rainy night the track was pretty muddy and i felt real uncomfortable this morning on the clips but i got through it and feel like i´m ready to pull them out when i wan´t now and still feel comofortable.

My run started out a bit wrong unclipping in a turn up top and struggled a bit to get back in. Then i just rode cautious and safe not to crash and it was enough to win it so i´m happy with that. Realy felt like i needed to end the season good and i have had 3 wins in a row now so it feels a bit better to head into the off-season and put in the work.

Niklas hurt his foot a bit yesterday trying my little huck out of the last woods so he had to strap it up today.

But he rode to a 5th spot today wich was ok even though he wasn´t happy with it.

We are staying in Åre for a few days doing some scientific tests on downhill together with the university in Östersund wich should be interesting.

Over & out!
