Ulricehamn Slopestyle Contest

This weekend I went to Ulricehamn ski center for a slopestyle contest!
The training started and I was the only girl :( My and Anna were there but couldn't ride and my super buddy Matilda couldn't get a ride so she was stucked in Göteborg :(
So they put me in the men senior event...! It was an honor and fun to compete with them and really try to do my best but they were too good :)
The hole training was fun an the park was great!!!! the kicker was so enjoyable with lots of airtime! After the kicker there was an up box and in the end of the slope a set up with down rails and a big fat rail.
I injured myself earlier this week on a box almost passed out and got bruised so I wasn't in the mood to do the big rails so I took the fat one instead just to get back on my feet again.

I did the qualifications and stomped my second run and got a wildcard for the final! It was wonderfull weather and we had 3 final runs which was so fun!
My final run: bs 360 mute, boardslide on the up box and fs board on the fatrail

Finally I enjoyed the time after the contest even more, they opened the park and everybody including me were riding the park until they closed! :)

It was time for the Swedish Championships in Snowboard: Halfpipe, Boardercross, Slopestyle and Big air 7:th-10:th April!!!! a very intense half week!!!!
It went in Kläppen-Sälen!!!!
An amazing week!!!!! Ended up with 2 silver medals and 1 bronze medal.

Day 1: Halfpipe (8h30- 18h30)
For the halfpipe I wasn't prepared because I only had 3 days for this season of riding BUT IT WAS SO FUN TO RIDE THE HALFPIPE!!!!! It was only happiness shredding this fun pipe!!!!!!
For the quali I didn't feel like my runs were so good but I still was very happy to be able to ride this pipe! Only 4 were qualified for the final.
I made it to the final so I was so happy for It!!!!

On my first final run I fell on my first hit so I was very sad about It.... But for the second run I played safe and did: Bs air, fs lien, bs tail, fs mute, bsmute, fs 360, cab 360, alleyoop lien. It was enough for a 3:rd place and very  very happy!!!!!

Day 2:  Boardercross (8h30-18h30)
For the boardercross, I was just exciting to try the boardercross cause It was years ago I competed last time! But during the evening my knee hurt a bit and wasn't sure I could take all the hard landings the course had. But I decided to be with my super best friend Lina and support her for the contest! I tried the course during the training without jumping and decided to compete after all, the course seemed to be lot of fun!
After the quali I was in the 5:th place.
It was time for the semifinal and the best of 2 gets to the big final: and believe It or not but I made it! I was really stoked about It, I really had to ride fast and big because the girls were really good!!! And I can tell you that It was crazy hard for my body to work in this course I was so tired after the semi.

For the big final It was so fun because I finished 2:nd after a really hard fight in the end with Catarina !!!!! So happy about It and such fun this day I couldn't believe what happened! My super best friend won the contest so we were so happy both of us!
Check the pictures:

Day 3: Slopestyle (8h30-18h30)
A very long day and very windy and long waiting for the contest to begin. I was so tired and with no energy left. they cancelled the contest at 17h00.

Day 4: Slopestyle (8h30-18h30)
This day I felt better than day 3 but still really tired and so happy for the 2 medals  I got so I fell no pressure. All the girls were so good!!!! It was so nice to see!!!!! I was too tired to ride and was a bit worried for my knee so I decided to have really fun instead and jumped in the middle kickers and be happy shredding this wonderfull fun course with a great set up: straight rail, 2 kickers, halfpipe, box!!!!
There were only 4 girls going to the final, so my goal was to just do a happy run formyself: 50-50, bs 360, fs 540 , fs lien, bs air, fs 360 cab 360.
And I made It to the final crazy because the girls were so good!
For the final I stomped my first run so for the finalrun 2 I really wanted to try a mc twist (in the halfpipe contest i didn't got the chance to try It) and did It, a miserable try but I was so happy to ride and shred with my wonderfull friends that inspire me every day!!!!
And to make this week even more great I got the 2:nd place!
1:st place: Cecilia Larssen
2:nd place: Jessica Fromm Comte
3:rd place: Tove Holmgren
4:th place: Malin Johansson

The next day we rode to Källviksbacken in Falun.
IIt was so sunny and warm!!! and the shapers had just shaped the jump!



During the training the guys had some trubbels to make It to tha landing, so It was sketchy. but for the quali they had some salt on the kicker and It helped a lot!

The girls were shredding hard, everyone of us were hitting the big kicker so It was a really fun day!
My final run was a bs 360 and got on a 3:rd place so very happy about It!

Hey!
This weekend, I went to Hafjell (Norway) for the Nikita Chikita Scandinavia contest!!!! I got a spot from Nikita Chickita Sweden.
We stayed in a new house and the appartments were so nice! I was surprised to see that one of the girls  I was staying with was an old friend , Aslaug, we met in Mammoth Mountain 2007. So it was really fun to hang out with her again! :)
The first evening we had dinner/meeting at the Lodge! A really nice place. I was happy to see that there were so many girls :)
The first riding day we were unfortunate because It was so windy so you couldn't make It to the landings. But I had fun anyway, I was riding the hole day!!!! :)


The contest day we were so happy to see that the wind was gone!!!!! and I had such god time riding!!!
My final run was: switch boardslide to fs boardslide fakie off, cab 360, cab 180, fs 360, bs 360, method air on the corner.
I got 2:nd on the constest and was so happy, the girls were riding so good so I couldnt believe It!
