Month: May 2011

Seems like this situation occurs to me pretty often these days…

I’m here! Love this place and look what was waiting for me in one of the cabins! (: Thanks Froggy and O’Neill! (:

I’m on a train at Gothenburg central now on my way to The Perfect Spot in Uddevalla after a week-end full of amazing adventures. The Coastal Culture expo with “Sörfaretjejer” was sick! I tried SUP for the first time, saw awesome skate-action in the ramp, met new people and basically just had a great time. I loved meeting all the girls with “Sörfaretjejer” and the whole day was so great yesterday. I’m so impressed by Malin Rapp, one of Swedens best Kite-girls and all the sweet spirit that was in the air amongst the girls in general. Like at the afterparty where 50 surfer-chicks took the dancefloor and killed it, dancing on the tables and the rest of the club just wondered what was happening. Thanks Nordic Surfers for this awesome event!

Trudi and I put together this edit from OWC with some rail-hits, enjoy!

Limpan drove the van all the way to the swedish surfer spot and we spent today building the Xtravel monter for the expo tomorrow. Afterword the gang went for some burgers and now we’re about to go to sleep after watching some surfing and wake-vids. And Limpan has been texting his 15 year old nephew since it’s his birthday today, but pretending to be a 16 year old girl. Really entertaining…

From the Xtravel van

Stopped by to get a ride with the Xtravel people to the west coast and Coastal Culture. Might as well use their internet to sort out some paper work right? And get some new stuff…

Swedish breakfast with my favorite swedish writer on the balcony in the sun…

Apperently, due to my own stupidity I now have 5 stitches in my arm so I can’t ride for 7 days (no comment). Guess it’s really a good thing cause I’d been riding non stop for about 3 weeks back in the states. I’m super sore and it’s great being home in the city again listening to Trudis spotify playlist which I have a feeling will be my list for the summer 2011. Miss the states and the people there a lot though but as soon as these stitches come off I’ll be heading out to the west coast! Can’t wait!

Home…

Home in Sweden again!! Met up with some friends yesterday and had  a blast so I spent today recovering in the city tanning and drinking coffee. Felt really weird seeing the fountain of Kungsträdgården where Wake Up STHLM would have been in a couple of days. It’s so perfect for wakeboarding!!

Right now I’m using the free WiFi at Maccers (Got to work the system!) and I’m about to go to the airport and pick up my brother!! Sweden is pretty cold but at least I had an awesome hoodie waiting in the mail to keep me warm. I’m never taking this thing off…

YEeeeeeeeeees!!!! Odub shred today and new flight tomorrow (:
