Epic and rocky!! Boarding in Norway!

Our Norwegian Distributor Veronica / GravityRide sent me her typical update full of stuff we all want to be doing. Keep an eye on her blog it really opens your eyes to Norway, pretty epic place for sports … and church burnings if that's your thing!

 

Here is what Veronica had to say about this recent decent!

“Hei Peggy :) Check out the helmetcam video at my last trip report: http://turblogg.gravityride.no/

“At the time we have more snow than in several years at the "outer" coast, now it's the time to ride the excotic lines that are very seldom available cause of lack of snow. This Friday we had an 750 vertical meter ride from Hellandshornet. Rocky, but the snow was stable, still an epic ride... “

 

Here are some shots of the day hiking the face: definitely makes Splitboarding seem cooler to me, I never understood them when they came out way back in the day.

And while Veronica was out living my dream I was sick last week missing Monday entirely and I have a public announcement to make that may save thousands!

Kaopectate is your best friend, throw away all of your Pepto Bismol because it is a waste of cash, you’d be better off sucking on shoelaces.

Thanks Kaopectate!

It got so bad for me that I was actually locked in the bathroom… not by choice, the guys just wouldn’t let me out… it was that bad.

Thanks again Kaopectate!

I think this was when I was prepared to break the door down to save my self from the fan-less bathroom!

I promise the next post will be on the Silent guide and not my digestive tract,  but it was pretty funny!

From Norway with Love!

Check out this little video sent to us from GRAVITYRIDE our Norwegian crew… it has some Sick camera angles, I love the fork shots!

 

"Pro telemark skier Torkel Karoliussen” is the rider… and he’s giving a FOES decked out in Straitline a spin!

 

If you are bilingual I hope Norwegian is your other language because you can read up on it all HERE!!

Torkel’s day job!

Our New Norwegian distributor / Marzocchi model!


Veronica of Gravity Ride in Norway has been appointed as our Norwegian distributor.

On top of running a new progressive firm that will be handling Straitline and Foes Racing in Norway, she is also a new poster girl for Marzocchi as well.



Hold your comments... Veronica can hold her own with any one on anyride! She is a serious rider and stoked to have our gear decked on some sexy Foes up North.

I was blown away on the 9 pages Decline or Bike did a few months back on Norway. Super sick place and the sport is definitly setting its roots over there.

Check out some of the rides built so far!

Our brands look so good together, my only guess is that FOES may have had an affair with Straitlines mom at some point in the past.
