Just got back to Sweden from 2 great weeks in Whistler. Well the 2 weeks was great but the competition in the end could have been better. On the practise everything felt pretty good I had done everything I wanted to do on the practise sessions before the finals and I felt pretty relaxed. Maybee to relaxed, In the beginning of the first run everything felt good I did a 360 X-up down the first step-down which was the same as the year before. Then I did a flip up the Kokanee/Giro box because the Judgers in Canada use to jugde them pretty high so I had to do atleast one in my run. Then a tailwhip drop down. During the practise I got the flair dialled on my slopestyle bike so was pretty stooked on that so decided to do one in my run. Then it was some pedalling to the Pink last feature from last year, so I did an tucknohander into it and a supercan down, I did it because I knew it was a looooong course so you would need to use many different tricks and not only spins/flips and whips. I went quite far on the supercan and did not really notice it so I rolled into the big jump as before but didnt have the speed and cased pretty hard and my hand slipped off the bar and my first run was done. I decided to do the same run on my second try just to have a good run and move on to the superfinal where I could try to send it. But it didn´t really happend I crashed on the big drop and my Crankworx dreams was gone and I lost some important points for the World tour. That big drop feature wasn´t mine and Linus friend this year, Linus fell of it and landed flat on his feets that resulted in a broken foot and a broken hand really hope he is back on the bike soon so we can shred all winter! Overall it was a good competition but way to many injuries I hope everyone is back on their bikes very soon and big congrats to Cam Zink for a sick run and the first place! Like so many times before the judging was a bit odd and pretty much all Euroes that had a good run got robbed. Wellwell now I am at home again and have some decicions to make about sponsors for next year and if I am going to do Rampage or not.

Just finished a great weekend in Colorado Vinterpark. In the beginning I had some problems to get use to my slopestyle bike had not been riding the slopebike for almost a year. But after a few runs I started to feel the old cove hooker bike again. unfortunately I didnt get my signature slopestyle frame the "Soda" in time but I heard from the NS bikes guys that I will have it as soon as I get home. Offcourse I will show it here for all readers before everyone else get the chance to see it! Well back to the action, the first day we got there was sweet good weather and the course looked fun so we started to ride some and in the end of the day we had done a few runs down the course. Then on the evening the rain starts and it rains the whole next day so no practise could be done. It rained even when we falled asleep but the morning after looked a bit better but we could never imagine that the course would be possible to ride after the heavy rain. Well we where wrong, we got to the course and everyone said 10 min to qualifying. It was not much to do just to do a warmup run then go up to the start. I was allready pre qualified for the finals becuase of the top 10 spot in the world tour, so I just wanted to do a solid run without crashing pretty much. I did a pretty safe first run and in my second run I wanted to try to 3 the first big drop, took a bit to much speed and overrotaded a tiny bit, I could jump the next jump but then I heard that I had got a flat tire. Well with the first run I ended up in 7th. Finals was a gamble with the strong wind, I was lucky in my first run and had almost no wind at all, I nailed the first 360 drop and double whiped the last trick jump. I was stooked on having a good first run that I could improve in the next rounds. The wind got worse and worse so we had to stop the finals and postpone it for a few hours. We decided to start the finals even if it still was pretty windy I tried to 270 tailwhip the first hip but got a bit windblown and could not finish my run. Then the wind did pick up again and we had to cancel the last round. I finished 3rd and was pretty happy with that, maybe not with the 3rd spot but was stooked on not being injured before Crankworx whistler. There was a few really bad crashes so really hope everyone are back on the bike soon again! Now I have 2 weeks of chilling in whistler before next Crankworx!

Won Big in bavaria! Now straight to Crankworx colorado! Looking forward to ride on a slopestyle bike again!

Hey folks, after a couple of good contests in Austria, Switzerland and Germany my next target was the FISE event in Montpellier, South of France. I looked forward to enter the contest, because it was my very first time there. It’s a special event in multi sports, because all good BMX- and MTB riders from all over the world as well as skateboarders and some other athletes from different sports are entering the Fise and it was supposed to become an awesome event. But stinking thinking…the weather was bad and the wind was too strong, so some of us decided not to ride. Well I enjoyed the trip and had a good time in south of france with my friends even if it was hard to have a good time with knowing that you cant ride.... See ya! / Martin

Hey there… After a couple of weeks at home I was completely refreshed and it was time again to pack my bags and start an awesome trip through Europe. First checkpoint was the Vienna Air King in Austria. There was a huge dirt line located in front of the historical town hall. Good riding for sure. I could make 2nd place right after my buddy Sam Pilgrim. After Vienna, the Austrian local Niki, my Swedish fellow Linus and me travelled to Switzerland to hit the course of the Rocket-Air slopestyle contest. It was a sweet contest too…so I was happy to hit the 1st place, actually my first one of the season. After those two contests I was supposed to fly home…but the Icelandic volcano had other planes with me, so I stayed in Austria . All flights back to Sweden were cancelled, so I decided to took the train right to Duisburg to ride the T- Mobile Extreme Playgrounds… and finally I got 1st place again. Super stoked & awesome time… See ya! Yours Martin

Hey everybody... Had an awesome trip to the USA, NoCal to be precise. The weather was warm and sunny and there were loads of things to see. I saw the Golden Gate Bridge... enormous one. ;) Me and my buddies Joakim, Trond, Andreas and Niels, made a huge trip to different dirt jump spots, skate parks and also to Woodward West for the Man vs. Machine shooting. It was sweet, definitely good times and lots of fun. So check out my video section here on my website to see the best moments of my California trip …enjoy. It was a haunting trip, but now it feels good to get home. See ya Yours Martin

Hey there... I had my first contest of the year in Leogang, Austria. It was a very special challenge, because the slopestyle course was made of snow. Crazy feeling to ride the line…;) Had some good runs, but finally I crashed in the finals. That sucked, but it was still a good experience. Red Bull Media House made a short clip about my trip to Leogang. Check out the teaser her: http://www.redbull.at/cs/Satellite/de_AT/Video/Bikes-auf-Eis-021242821617985?refmod=ContentFeed&refmodpos=B108. Finally I am on my way back to Sweden… See ya Yours Martin
