Competition done!

We did 20,4 in average over nine rounds, and probably 20,1 over ten. Feels good, we reached our goal and we are happy. We have a bunch of things to do better, but that is for tomorrow, now its time for some good food and party!

one more jump to go!

We have done nine jumps, all good. The feel-good jump was really good!

Tied with the Fins

But the last jump 20 F 12 really rocked! Im in an adrenaline rush! Yahoo!

14th place after five rounds

We did a 21 on the last jumps yesterday. So we climbed a bit in the rankings. Firsth today we did N 16 6, went ok. Now 20 F 12

World Challenge day 1

After four rounds we are on 15th place tied with Pro-team.
First jump 17 10 4 was a tough round for us when block 10 is not a strong block for us and we have very few repetitions in it b-slot. But we made it ok. 16p on that one. Second jump, 19 Q 8 was a little rough too and we did 19 not so happy about it.
Third jump G 7 D 9 was fast but little tricky we actually felt pretty good about. A 25p on that one.
Fourth jump, ACEHK, a really fast jump we did 32p on, not very good actually. We never got it to hit it on. But we managed to do it without busts, we had some issues in the middle.
Fifth jump, 14 M J 3 is not judged yet. But it felt nice, but we have done smoother 14s before...

Perris Fury did impressive 59p on the fast jump. That is crazy fast!

We are pleased but we feel that we have more to give! Tomorrow we will do everything faster, smoother and stronger! And we can proudly say that we are on a 23p average after four rounds anyway :)

17 10 4

First round went ok, our tens arent the best butt it worked nice! Now 19 Q 8

Training jumps done

We had our 2x 1,5 min sessions to get our airspeed, typically for me we fly on 42...

Now having a coffee and waiting for the draw. Best feeling in the world!!

Last training before competition!

We had a good last day, we did a 10-round meet in the last session and landed on a 18.9p average. Now its really interesting to see what the scores will be when we are properly prepped for each jump and the real game is on!

There was some funkie stuff going on in B-slots on the back piece so we're still not so sure on all the stuff yet. Hopefully we don't get the "wrong" blocks in b-slots in the competition. But we will make wonders I believe that!!

More teams have shown up in Bedford. France teams, Arcteryx and Airspeed has been training today. Also some more Norwegian and Danish teams has showed up. Those teams we will be competiting against! It will be a really nice Nordic meet, Yahooo!!

We saw freeflyer Fabian doing some really crazy amazing stuff in their new program. They are real artists in the tunnel.

Over and out, day off tomorrow.

Gillar solen

I väntan på vår tid hänger vi ute i värmen

Taining plan today

On the training schedule today we will debrief the exists and figure out what works for us and not.
I think many of the long formations will be an Stairstep out of the door and then rebuild.

Yesterday we did a lot of random work again. Some in B-slots. So we have to go through some B-slot blocks and just rip off the bad blocks we have. Hopefully we can finish off with nice feeling-jumps and be ready as hell for Saturdays start!

The a bit odd hotel room

This is how we live this week in Bedford. A bit tricky to move around in the room, but we have good opportunities to do work out.










I wonder who its built for...












Pro-team, Finland with coach Mattias









Yesterday on our exit training I hit the door pretty hard in my side, could hardly move afterwards. A bit worried about today's training. But bought some good pills at the pharmacy and a long night sleep I think I can do underverk again. First training at 5pm today.

Training day one!

Well, first training since February. Its not only brilliant moments... Have done 1,5h and have 30 min left. We are going to train exists to the competition. Rules are, shoulders and head can not be in the tunnel. So we will try out some different things.

We have been watching Perris Fury from US, Hayabuza from Belgium and XL from UK in action today. It looks crazy fast and is of course very impressive. And that's where we want to be one day.

I really looking forward to this weekends competition. It will really be super fun!!

But first training! A little soar in the bodies but in a good mood.

More pictures and stories will come soon.
