Stockholm King Of Style - behind the scenes

Hi all,

back in action. sorry for being so goddamn lazy at updating. I am back home, in Stockholm, and the King Of Style 2008 is over. I was not that happy with my skiing, had some issues with the flat, icy landing, but another 4th place is not too bad, I guess. I’m not going to bore you with the same pictures and videos of the action that you can find all over the internetz, i decided to give you some behind the scenes stuff instead. enjoy.
