Old School, Air, and broken bones

With an average age of 41, you would be forgiven to think that this air-session, with 7 participants, would be different...well it was, but not the way you think, these guys where hitting hard, leaving the "41" as a hollow number that was put to shame. Take a look;

Peter was smiling a lot this day, the drops and jumps where quickly turned into a playground.

I can see my house from here.

Kim was hesitant to hit stuff outside his comfort zone, as always underestimating himself. But once the other guys began to hit the features - the excuses evaporated and Kim followed : )

Peter on his 29'er. This a short travel bike, with XC wheels, that bike sure made some weird noises on impact..

Morten on his way into orbit ; )

Smiles all around, some of these guys where going bigger than ever before, and the reward was written in their faces..

..Well except Søren, he nose dived a jump, and broke his collarbone : / Healing wibes out.

Henning temporary incapacitated by riders block. A small double had him mind-fucked. After a little inner reasoning, he came back to it, and rode it - and that's the way you tackle it.

Jan smiled for 48 hours straight : )

Malente 2015 Part 1/2

The return to Malente. I wrote about this place HERE, so check that out if the name Malente doesn't ring a bell.

Anyway, we had 2 great days of pushbike here, I had my cam and shot some pics, check it out;

This is a small forest with some pushbike lines. No longer than a minute of descend at most. 3 lines that we are aware of, but there is a good amount of interlacing, so you could almost say there is about 6-7 lines in total. Some of it in mint condition, some of it in poor. Most of it was good tho'.

Henning chasing Jan.

Hitting one of the bigger drops, at the very top. Its about 2 meters (7feet), and you better hit it fast enough, there is a hole right below that has to be passed. I'm on my DH bike, and I almost forgot how amazing that BOS Idylle Air fork feels...oh my!

Jan inspects a stepdown, its one of those features that required speed, but not too much speed..
(click to enlarge)

..And hits it. Jan was showing great form these two days.

Bikeparks and pushbikes

3 days in two bikeparks, followed by 2 days of pushbike... Im sort of  tired now! ; )
Well whining aside, both trips where awesome, the weather was great, the beers where cold, and there was a whole lot of Schnitzel....and I think a few of us even pushed a few things on the bike.

I shot a whole lot of GoPro footage and boiled it down to a 2 minute edit, enjoy.

2m17sec. With sound, HD AVAILABLE

From a squirrel, to grips, that's what's random is about.
