Some shows

John olav Nilsen & Gjengen is one of Norways top rock bands now. they debuted last year and quickly got popular. songs about being young,drunk,broken love,being from a suburb and so on. these photos were taken with my surf lens a 300 mm F4. used a monopod and fired away from the gallery. one in 30-40 shots were usable.

Hypertext from Haugesund. if i remember correctly these photos were taken with my old manual Yashica 135 2.8 lens. picked it up for 35 euros with a canon adapter. it performs niceis fast and i really love the 135 mm perspective !

oskar does good in the waves also

Another fun weekend here on the west side. not quite as epic as forecasted,but those that scored Friday should be happy ! sailed owerpowered 4.0 in good sized waves friday evening ! Really good times over here now. im on the lookout for a bigger freeStyle/ride board now to get out even more. lets pray that the big high pressures dont come down on us this summer !

Summer & Sun in da waves

P.Ø starts his ride

Kilen has found some flat water inside the point to spock his quad. Sele is a multitasking spot !

Erik T does his waveride nr. 6754 at Sele. if you dont catch waves. just shadow erik. he knows where they are..

Last photos is of me. thanks to tormod for taking them. despite being knackered from an heavy week at work i got a few fun ones !

Woot ? is it possible too top turn with a single fin ;)

The good wind from the north keeps coming the western coast of Norway. had my first session in my 3 mil summer suit as well. INCREDIBLE nice to shed the "winter fur" ;) Today i actually DID NOT sail !! too much sailing lately and resting a bit before what could be a new big weekend. stay tuned !

Homespot action

Some sets had a FUN size !

Not sure what Peter was trying here. from the beach it looked like a backie attempt of the lip ?

On some of the waves you had to look up from the ground to spot the lip :) love that feeling !

Nice little aerial !

A big wind forecast got the norwegian wavesailors exited. lot of speculations about where to go. i ended up at our bread and butter spot Sele 20 mins from my flat. pretty good decision i think. almost head high and i 3.7-4.2 winds !

Windy roadtrip

Nice little aerial !

Small wave,big spray !

The waves grew bigger

Lista has something for everyone. freestyle inside the harbour and waves on the outside

Gotta love spring/early summer in Norwaii when everything starts to turn green and colourful !


Drove the surfmobile down to Lista again this weekend. scored some really good conditions ! sailed 5.8 and 90 l on saturday. sunday the wind kicked in big time. 4.0/4.7 on my small board.

Monday turned out to epic ! from early afternoon it was full power 4.0 with building waves ! early evening the waves increased even more and i scored a really good session in chest/head sideshore up to 3 turns a wave ! everything fell together, the sail was perfect,got a wave almost every time i sailed in. evening sun and big rolling sea swell to jibe on out the back ! man i love that place when it works !

It was a big turnout of sailors probably close to 30 guys and girls and everyone was having a blast ! some had their first sessions after a horribly unwindy 6 months for the east coast sailors.

its gonna be quiet for a few days now. actually i need that. been sailing pretty consistently for 2 and a half months now !

Windy times # 2

Einar driving his Quad through a bottom turn. summer time sized waves.. the day after was a tiny bit bigger.
Stian got his vulcans sorted.

Not the worst place to be waiting for wind ! downtown Borhaug, surf city

Andreas launching inside Borhaug harbour. for freestyle this is probably as good as it gets. world class wave breaks in the area as well..

Rigging down at pisserenna after a good session !

Been a good May month so far. sailed every other day and it looks like its gonna be windy for a week now ! spent a few days down at Lista this weekend. Scored a couple of days with fun smallish wavesailing ! Sunday was the best with waves up to chest high and i was actually getting the feeling i was wave sailing on some of them ! gotta be happy whith what we get this time of year ! windy today as well but i might just rest.. Its good times right now appartment is full of wet gear spread around. the car is messy,clothes smell of neoprene and the muscles are sore ! keep it coming :)

Erik destroys da lip

We just had a 4 day spell with Northwest winds here. Our favourite direction in Summer. it just accelerates down the Norwegian west coast and behaves like the wind in more well know spots with "Trades" Saturday had the biggest waves and the strongest winds. 3.4-4.5. The temperature in the air and water is at the moment sub double digits in Celsius.. Feeling a bit surfed out at the moment actually. Its gonna be quiet for a few days now, but the weekend could amount to something ! Pray for windsurf !
