As weather shut us down, me and "part time" TNT member Leif K Haugen decided to cheer up with some Indian

Always a good call, the garlic naan down here is just amazing!

As I am writing this, coach Sean is attending the team caption meeting, I am crossing all my fingers that he is bringing back a good number!

As the weather was worse then terrible the race was cancelled! I am not complaining as that means that there will be a "re draw" tonight, meaning I get a new chance to get a number better then 13…

Lets cross our fingers as it will make a huge difference in the soft snow!

Here we go again!  Drew start nr 13!!! (racers ranked 1-15 coming into the race draws for the first 15 nrs), I have really been sort of unlucky here in NZ, nr 1-13-15-13 is not what I would have hoped for! Especially as they just got more snow yesterday so I guess we can expect soft conditions…

Kill crush and destroy is todays strategy! (just found out the Norwegians are racing so it should be an interesting one!)

After crushing cates its time for a hair cut, been thinking about it for a few months but I think its finally time to do it! Maybe I should cut it with me new super awesome Leatherman that I got yesterday?

Have been asking everyone for tools for the past few weeks so I thought it was time to get my own stuff!

Off to the hill, see you soon!

Lets start with a good thing first!

The jump in Treble Cone is confirmed and the snow cats will start pushing on monday morning, f**ing stoked, I cant wait to jump!

Pretty epic backdrop of the jump location…  

Then over to the bad…

As some might have already read on the net, HQ bank is in big trouble, I am crossing my fingers that they will somehow make it true it… Not the kind of info you want when you check your phone at 4 in the morning… 

And back to the good!

JOSS dates for 2011 is confirmed to the 5- 16th of April. Its time to dig in and start working on new fun things! 

Taking the day off today to be fully rested for tomorrows race!

Happy birthday to the one and only Hans Olsson!

I thought that we would all give him a birthday present together-

Lets all click our way into his new website www.HANS-OLSSON.com and kick his numers through the roof!  

I know how much I like when that happens… Lets turn Hans day around!

I day off here in NZ is not a normal day off, at least not if you are hanging out with Warner, Ted and Felix…

Want to know what happened the hours before this photo was taken? Make sure not to miss the next videoblog!  (Well I guess not the next one but the one after that as the race blog is coming up tonight here in NZ! 

Felt amazing to have a day off skis though, legs feel great and ready to crush again so in an hour I am driving up to the mountain, stoked to see Leif and Jansrud who is coming over to Cornet Peak today!

4 h later… Weather moves quick here!

A much better view if you are having a day off!
