Looptroop Guru Tribute

Found this video by Looptroop Rockers and Timbuk kickin some sweet Gang Starr and GURU tribute.

Pow day in Fonna

Due to some technical difficulties I haven't been able to log the clips from our first days here but now things are finally working out.

This was my very first day of riding and filming. So much fun!

Fresh cold snow and bluebird at may 11th! Not too bad..

Zed's Dead

You know that I'm all into that Dubstep thing and if you're not, nevermind this post.

But if you too are a big fan fan of that kind of music I would highly recommend the Canadian duo called Zed's Dead.

Started off as hiphop producers but have now moved on to making dubstep.

Download all 4 tracks from this page.

All bangers!



It's kinda obvious where they have got their name from I would say..

That Icelandic Volcano

Okey, I've seen some killer photos from the Eyjafjallajökull Volcano and I thinks it's really fascinating.
But this one really kills it!

SO SICK!

Thanks to Kire for sending me the link.

Up and runnin

YES!
Finally solved my computerproblems today, so hopefully I will hook you up with some more edits these coming days!
Big ups to Chrille P for technical support!

We've had another banger day here at Fonna today with supernice weather. Hopefully tomorrow will be a little less sunny because my face really needs a day of from the sun.

We've finished painting the rails and some other Mushroom signs and branding today and you will probably see a behind the scenes in a edit SOOOON!

You can also stay tuned at what we're up to at the Mushroom Crew page.
BAANGIN weather! Again! You should really come join us.

Done and Done!
When we got back home it was time for the boys to play their 100th game of DotA

Pics from yesterday

My computerproblems continues.

So instead of posting some moving pictures I give you some stills from last day here in Fonna.

Got myself a new mobilephone so I'm testing out it's camera.

Looks like shit, just like my last one!
This one even comes with 1,2 megapixels LESS then my old one, but hey!

As you can see, we're pretty much alone at the resort!
Johan warming up on the flat down box.
Chrille P working hard or hardly working!?
Chillin chillin
Emil impatiently waiting for the hot dogs.
For a day like yesterday I give Fonna one great big thumb UP!

A Good Day in Fonna

Yesterday we had a really nice day here in Folgefonna.
Sunshine, cold fresh snow and to round it up, a good old hotdog bbq!

Sorry about the video looking a little bit pixely, especially Johan's jacket who looks like it's made out of LEGO.

I'm having a really hard time with my macbook and Final Cut right now and I'm THIS close of buying myself a new one and throwing this one out the window.

Stay tuned to see what will happen!

First day in Fonna

Today we've had the first day of riding here in Fonna.
Last night when we arrived it was raining, which usually results in fresh snow up on the glacier.

So when we got up there this morning we found about 10 cm of powder on the mountain. That and the fact it was approximately 5 more persons on the entire resort meant that we could shred cold fresh snow the whole day long.

I was doing some filming but I'm having trouble with my Final Cut program so I couldn't log the clips today, but I post some screen captures so that you can see how it looked.

Less snow then normal for this time of year but still pretty damn sweet.

BOOYAH! Edit coming soon.. Hopefully!

Norway driving

Today we've spent pretty much the entire day behind the wheels.
Well, I've been laying in the backseat sleeping for most of the trip but Kire and Beyer did a great job behind the wheels. Especially Kire who's been doing all the driving from yesterday aswell, hehe.

Here's some pics from the trip
Passed through Geilo on our way there
Kire driving across Hardangervidda. Still lots of snow there.
We were pretty much alone on the roads during the last part of the trip
Smooth as road
Beyer acted like a retard in the frontseat during pretty much the whole trip

On The Road Again

So, I have now left Åre for the season and I've spent the weekend in Umeå doing some clubbin with the Random Bastards and my Cuz and friends.

Today, me and Kire packed the car and headed out on the roads on our way to Folgefonna, Norway.
We made a stop in Borlänge for a few hours of sleep in the Beyer's family resident, but tomorrow we'll be heading out on the roads again. Shitty ass norwegian roads that is. Not superstoked about that I must say, but i will hopefully feel better as soon as we're there.

Oh, my telephone is starting to fall apart and the cameraphone isn't working as it should so that's why It's been kinda slow with the updating these last couple of days. I will try to fix it in some way in the near future so that I can do some updating from Fonna.

Peace
This picture is actually from last years trip to Fonna. But this is what it's probably gonna look like when we're headin out on the roads tomorrow.
On the road, again
Some nice scenery awaits us at least.

Byssas Slushy Shred

Here comes the video from Byssa's Slushy Shred that was held in Åre a couple of weeks ago.

Clip Of The Week - Shoveling Snow

I know I've missed out probably two weeks in a row now with my Clip Of The Week posts. But I've been hell of busy with the whole JOSS thing and then I've had lots of other things to do aswell after that. Oh well, to be honest I've been lazy and the last weeks here in Åre usually consist of a whole lot of partying. Give me a break!

Anyway, here it is. A clip from earlier this winter. Shot during the same session as the Dog Attack Video.

In this weeks episode Matte Nyberg and Anton Gunnarsson are shoveling some snow in Sundsvall.

This angry old man comes out and complains but Young Money Newbreckt and Anton Got Yourself A GUNarsson shows that they ain't nuthin to F--K wit!

Bad Boys 4 Life!

Sorry about the outstreched format on the video. I fucked up I admit it, but I don't have the energy to do it all over.
Peace

Bo Hansson

Last week the great MC off famous Gang Starr past away after a long time off sickness.

And today another great musician swedish Hansson unfortunately past away.

Read the short article here

Bo Hansson was a kick as musician that made instrumental arrangements off The Lord Off The Rings trilogy among other things.
His work has been sampled by tons off Hiphopartists and I've spent a lot off time back in the days listening to his music.

Here's probably his most sampled track "Utflykt Med Förvecklingar" or "Excursion with complications" that has been used in following tracks:
Fattaru - Babylon
Dr Dooom - Leave me alone (Peanutbutter Wolf-remix)
Fat Joe - Damn
Cormega - Thin Line
Atmoshpere - The arrival
It has also been used by my homeboy Johnny "Fidelity Entertainment" Holmgren for a track on Tony Komas latest Album Prelude.
Listen to the track "The Prophet" on his myspace

Nitro in Åre

Today I met up with Nitro filmer Magnus Törnkvist and Nitro riders Anton Bilare, Sven Thorgren and Sindre Iversen.

They are here to hit the stepover kicker in Solravinen and hopefully the weather will give us a chance to get to hit it tomorrow.

Read more about it on Magnus Törnkvists Blog


The kicker looking good but the weather got pretty crappy in the afternoon.

A nice day in Åre

Yesterday we had a really good day.

Me, Joel and Philip Harlaut teamed up and went for a hike to the top of the mountain and had a really great run on the backside.
Rounded up the day with some beer on Fjällgården and then headed on to Dippan to watch Lazee and Promoe.
Good times!

Pics from JOSS Awards

Found these pictures from Blondinbella's blog.

She was hosting the event together with Colby James West.
They did a pretty good job I must say.


After the scoring was over, three teams ended on the same points.
Team Norway up on the stage
Hampus did the job as style judge! Full points for our team!
Team Canada got the best overall score, so they where announced as final winner!
My homeboy from Övik Nils "Big City Boy" Grundberg was also there to support Bella. I guess he is the one who's been taking the pictures.

Good times!
