Swedish Championships 2011 Kläppen

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!

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!

2:nd place: Jessica Fromm Comte
