How did you get into snowboarding?
I was in the slope and my brother had started to ride snowboard so I also wanted to ride! After a while I got the chance to try it and got hooked on it right away.
How long are you riding already?
I am not sure but about ten years I think.
What’s your favourite riding spot and why?
Bear Moutain was so sick when I was there. Sunny and slushy but the most important for me is just to ride with a really good company, then I am always stoked to ride.
What do you like to do besides snowboarding?
Just hangout with my friends and have a good time!
Any future plans?
Just have fun, snowboarding as much as possible and always doing it because it’s so much fun!
Things you definitely need to have a great party?
Friends, good music and tequila!
Your tip for a young shredder?
Just snowboarding because it’s so much fun. Never forget why you are snowboarding in the beginning!
Worst trip ever?
Hm, I am not sure on that! Why doing a bad trip?
First board you owned?
A Nidecker! It was black and white like a cow.
First sponsor?
I think it was Salomon.
First trick ever?
It was an Indy I think.
Best thing against hangover?
Drink much water before you go to bed and you can try pills against headache.
Last trick you sticked?
It probably was a rail combo in Norway.
Your childhood idol?
James Bond
Favorite food you can cook yourself?
Nachos are so good!
Interview question you hate most?
I am not sure about that one, hehe.
And maybe a few words about Blue Tomato, why you joined BT and what you think about it
I wanna give a big thanks to Blue Tomato that helps me out. I was so stoked to join the team because for me, it’s one of the absolute best snowboard stores! So for all people out there check out Blue-tomato.com when you want to buy some really good stuff!
