Month: April 2011

Igår var en tung dag då jag och Max fick beskedet om att vi var tvungna att ställa in Wake Up STHLM 2011. I och med att vår finansiella situation drog ut på tiden och diverse missförstånd så kan vi inte längre genomföra tävlingen i år. Med ett nästan hel färdigt event och en ny sammarbetspartner i ryggen så fortsätter vi dock att planera för 2012 och vi har stora förhoppningar om nästa år. Istället får jag se fram emot schyssta event som Lund Wakefest, Oysteins summer rail challenge och The Perfect Spot i sommar.

You can’t always get what you want…

So it’s almost time to apply to universities in Sweden but it sucks! This is what I’d rather do than send in my applications:

F this, let’s go ride…

I spent the rest of this sunday tanning on the dock at Trudi’s with Sara and Trudi. We also went to IHOP and got chocolate chip pancakes (yup, I’m super healthy) for breakfast. As we walked in to the restaurant we all realized that we weren’t wearing any shoes, guess that’s something we’ve just stopped doing without really notice it. I’m really tired now so time to go to sleep..

Just woke up after a night out with Trudi and Sara. After riding with Nicola behind her sick X-star yesterday I went into Orlando to hang out with my swedish friends. We headed over to these guys where we started our night with some pool and downs before going out to Roxy. I had a blast dancing and we met a bunch of our other friends out there. After the cab ride home I, for some reason, decided to swim at 3 am. So I got in the water and was terrified of all the gators. (oh yeah, we saw one up close today when we went on Nicolas boat.)

After my little swim, I fell asleep on the couch and I just woke up, still a little wet with great memories from last night. (:

So I ended up at a little private pool party at Katie’s house with the boys and some other people. This is a song which I’ve started to love over here and which makes me super happy! We listened to it a lot tonight..

Had some fun riding today at the camp. The water was glassy and the sun was out (as always) and I tried to get those two tricks down, but nope, not today either.

So, I’m so damn close on landing two new tricks. SO CLOSE!! But no..

Had a really nice set with Billy today. It felt good to ride without being stressed (which I’ve been a lot lately) and even though it was pretty windy, I almost landed some stuff. Did I mention I was close?

First time in ages I had to wear a wet suit…

I felt obligated to ride without shorts today, so I did…

I’m so happy that team Sweden has arrived here! These dudes are so great and I’ve really missed them. Today I’ll go out to ride with them and Cassie in freezin’ 55 degrees!  Luckily I brought my O’Neill snowboard jacket so at least I’ll stay warm..

Some picks on the dudes by Nick Johnson from yesterday (:

John John ripping!

Hot boys…

Don’t try to ride straight into the A-frame at Odub…

So, after almost 2 months without chocolate our favorite John John brought us “some” from back home… (:
