Why did you apply for Snowboard / Freeski?
The reason I applied for Snowboard / freeski is because all my friends were moving away from Nesodden, and I did not know what I wanted, so I thought it was a great way to experience something new, as well as get to know new people. Fun fact: actually applied just a week before school started!

How long have you been standing?
Stood a lot on the board before, probably since primary school, but then I took a break between the end of middle school, and now. Have missed it very much!

What are your goals for attending folk high school?
My goals will probably be to become more comfortable socially, and get back the joy of snowboarding. I also had a desire to become good at skateboarding and learn tricks. As previously mentioned, I also aimed to make new friends. Everyone who has gone to folk high school says that this is what you should do, so most of all I just wanted to have fun with fellow students.

How does it feel when you stand on the ground?

Every time I have to jump and do a trick or something, I have to find the right song, for the feeling to be complete!

How is the social on the line?
It's nice to be with people who have the same interest as me. We have a lot of fun together, and every time someone has a birthday we go bowling and eat pizza to holiday the person, it's always great! It is a good counterbalance to a lot of energy and boyish mood.

What are you "working on" on the ground at the moment?
Nowadays I work on landing BS double cork 1080.

I have been skiing for about 5 years and snowboarding for about 6-7 years.
