An Update from Thomas Harstad!

4 star hotel!

Yo! Here is a little web update from summer in Norway.

I just got home from one of my best trips ever! Me, Mads Jonsson and Erik
Botner left Oslo last Tuesday, our car packed with surfboards, skateboards, snowboards, fishing gear, tent and booze!

Oh so artsy!

We drove all the way to the West Coast of Norway (a good nine-hour drive). Our mission was the Burton Summer contest and a couple of days of camping on the surf spot there before the contest started.

We got some really good waves, just the three of us in the water, offshore and head high perfect waves...it was sick! The surf contest started Thursday, the skate contest was Friday and the snowboarding contest was Saturday. It was a really good event and a week of doing all the stuff we like to do the most, surf, skate, snowboard and party!

Gourmet cuisine!

Mikkel Bang won the contest and got a brand new 250cc quad bike! I got second and won a super nice longboard, stoked! Mads Jonsson got third and also got a longboard. Looks like we’ll be cruising our longboards for the rest of the summer! Hang five, hippie steez, yeah right!

If there is one place you all should visit, it is the West Coast of Norway!

So goth!

Peace out!

Thomas

Fishing!

Summer in Norway!

Backside D's always look good

Hey Ho! Here's a little update from our two Norwegian Shredders, Fredrick Austbö and Thomas Harstad! They are celebrating summer in the city! Oslo is the place to be for them right now!

Freddy decided to visit Thomas in Oslo for a couple of weeks. And that's what a day in the life of those two looks like at the moment: go to the gym and hang out at the beach ( yep, believe it or not- there's beautiful beaches in Norway), go skate and play golf!

But don't believe Freddy was just lying around, being lazy all day! Oh no, hahah! Thomas used the opportunity and told Freddy that he could stay, but needs to help with the housework! Well done Thomas!

Cleaning!

More updates to follow! Enjoy the summer!

Paris Party Photos!

As you may have already heard, the etnies 20th Anniversary party in Paris was pretty much unlike anything most people have ever seen. Here's some more photos we found on flickr!

The New Inline Team!

Long live fruit booting!

Hampus Mosesson and Wille Yli-Luoma were at a party in Sweden and this photo was taken only to end up with the following caption underneath it:

The Swedish Inlineskate Elite Hampus Mosesson and Wille Yli-Luoma!

Turns out the photographer had no idea who the guys were, so Swedish ThirtyTwo rider Stefan Karlsson told him they were famous Swedish inline skaters! Sick!

Expect full inline video parts from Wille and Hampus soon! Not!

Heading To Paris!

We are all heading to Paris this week to celebrate round two of our 20th Anniversary Celebration! Round one was in New York, as you've heard plenty about it, and round three is coming in October here in Lake Forest at Goofy vs. Regular 2006! Jealous?
