Jølgens Bølge, Sjoa (Waterlevel 351.55)
Winter is half way now. It came quite a bit of snow this year, so far. A few days ago it started melting thoe. I am already over-exited over next season kayaking especially since i discovered how much rivers are offered close to my chosen home the old dirty Oslo. Looking back i had a great season last year. Big Volume in spring.
Playboating in Summer and Creeking all the way through the season. I love the Bazooka I discovered
a different style of boating with it and having edges in the back. It was first
a big change but once the movements came to my hipps, awesome. It brought me a
lot of fun down the river and good control in 2014.
While i tryed to cut a rodeoclip i remembered how boring it was so i just made a 30 second one :)
Rain in Oslo
Written in Nov 15th 2014
The last week it was
raining quite a bit in Oslo and i was lucky to meet a bunch of Paddlers who
where keen to run some Rivers within an hour drive from Oslo. Every day for
five days another river where flowing in a good level. We could just pick the
one that looked most inviting.
Oslo as a "Big
Town“ offers 10 or more options to go boating. Most of it would be
described as class IV double run double fun. To name a few Leira, Urula
Jonsdalelva, Bingselva, Saggrenda...
We have been also to
the Etna, a 19 km whitewatermassage. It took us 2,5 hours driving each way but
was totally worth it.
There is a playspot in
Hønefoss which is a 40 min drive away. And some of those named runs have big
waves after heavy rain.

Vuttudalselva in Sør Trondelag
Written in September 28th 2014
I did quite some
bushwhacking in the past month. It got rewarded with the First Decent of the
Vuttudalselva in Sør Trondelag. My mate Nathan, who lives just around the
corner of this run, knew this stretch of river since quite a while but he never
got the right water level or a crew to go and boat this class 5 gnarr.
So i visited him on
rainy days. We checkt out the hole stretch and found a waterfall combo
untouched waiting for the first Blast.
This event woke the interest of a Trøndelag newspaper which i find great. Bringing the Riverkayaking closer to the lokals and give understanding of what we love. Nathan gave a interview about possibillitys for the Outdoorindustry in the area.
