Experience:

I started with Paragliding in 1996 and started SnowKiting in 2000. I live in Oslo but spend a lot of time in the Norwegian mountains during wintertime. Kiting and all kind of skiing (mostly off-piste). During summer, I do a lot of mountainbike, competition-sailing, windsurfing and water-kiteing. I have attended different events like Snowjam at Finse. My main places for kiting are Eldrevann, Harahorn, and other places nearby Hemsedal. I also use Hardangervidda, Kroksjoen, Imingfjell and Bergsjostolen. We use our kites to do daytrips, ski on local mountain-tops or going on smaller excursions often with sleds. I am accustomed with the use of GPS coordinates in competitions and navigation. My kiting experience is mainly with regular foilkites. I have about 50-70 days a year skiing during the winter season. Randonnee, alpine skiing, cross country and kite. I have lived for 3 years at Longyearbyen, Svalbard and have experience form outdoor activities like winter tent and snowcave in arctic conditions. I am educated in Meteorology which is a good help for kiting in winter conditions. I have been skiing, paragliding and kiting with Oystein for 15 years, so we know each other well. We look forward to team up and participate in TOKE 2016
