November and last part of October gave some good weather and mountaintrips. Few flight down, but some and lots of photographing. Should wish I had more time to be out, but that’s it 🙂 Have been much in Trollheimen area training during November and lots of good experiences and memories! #speedfly#teamwendy#stjørdalfoto#Trollheimen#swing mirage#surnadal#runegjeldnes#nature
Had the pleasure to start the ski season last weekend. Found snow in Storulvan mountains on the Swedish side. Skied all the way up to the summit of Geitryggen. However, very little snow and hard to find landing spots. Lucky with the wind direction from North West 7-8 m/s. Only direction on the mountain for…
October has been visiting and ended, with changing weather conditions. Tried to be in the mountains as much as time has limit. Winter and Autumn has changed from day to day, and like you had winter one day and summer the next. Nice colors and big contrasts, which I do like. Most of the time…
Had a lucky flight just before the snow finally covered the mountains in Trollheimen. The home. On take-off left wingtip had a hit in a rock, which was really recognized. When landing I recognized I had a 10 cm hole in the left outer celle on the wing. Not so pleasant afterwards, but the wing…
The summer has been busy and weather not so good for flying when at home. But had a nice flight back home at the farm early July. Waiting for an hour to clear and got the flight with good lift:-)
It has been a special summer in Norway, with lots of weather records. Mostly high temperatures. Have enjoyed it, but it has almost been too warm in the mountains. So activity has been from Middel Norway to Northern Norway. B
On my way down from Northern Norway in August I could not resist to visit Sandhorn Island, just South of Bodø city, again. I had attempted a flying line out there for three years and this summer I was lucky enough to get two flights down this canyon. A good pump up, and a good…
Pk Strandtind is situated on the largest island in Norway, Hinnøya. I had the pleasure of visiting this mountain twice this Spring. First time in perfect conditions and the next time I would have needed crampons and iceaxe to reach the summit, but both time I had a beautiful trip up and wonderful flight down…
Just back from three weeks in Northern Norway, and in the nature for the whole time. It has been much summiting and good flights most of the time, and photographing. Also started on Paraglider at the very beginning stage. Had one week stay at Andøya which is my favorite place up North, and did some…
December has been good in Hell finally. And, my “Christmas Clip” will be a tradition. Have to make a new one soon. Wishing all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
The plan was good, and the weather forecast was with me. To try a flight from a very special peak for me. Neådalssnota in Trollheimen. Hoping to fly all the way from the summit to Kaarvatn. It was a nine kilometers flight, on South Easterly wind, my novice head told me that could be good.…
Never been on Svartisen glacier, and still have not been there. I was supposed to do a training trip up there in August, with a British adventure man who is planning a polarexpedtion. So on my way up through Helgeland I did a reasearch for a route up on the Eastern side, and not the…
Had some very good days in Lake District or more specific, Buttermeer. The Buttermeer Bash Festival was going on. Why go there? It happened on our way to the South Pole before Christmas last year, Ros, one of the participants, ask me to come and visit them in Lake District. A big Paraglider & Speedrider…
It has been a great winter, and it still is. In Hell area you definitely see and feel that the Spring is on its way at the moment. Anyhow, most of the winter I have been in Northern Norway. It is the part of Norway I like most. The scenery is breathtaking and raw. The…
