This is that Swedish skier from the Winter Olympics isn’t it? Henrik?

 

Most likely. It’s for an Armada thing and the dreadlock dude skis for Armada. That hip is HUGE.

Unsure if its open to public or not.

The parks smaller tho.  Fun jib sesh tho.
Few boxes, rails and bonk box over a jump.

Try get some more photos tomoro.

Yep, Henrik Harlaut. He’s from Åre where I’m living and I saw him a few times over the winter. He posted on his instagram that it was his first time to Australia and that he loved it!

 

Yeah! That was a bad day yesterday. Hopefully this weekend will be good.  tumble

all parks besides piper were closed today.
caught up with some of the park crew up top of leichardt about lunch time, they had just parked the cat and dropped tools, pretty much everything in there was fucked and it was too sloppy to work with, rebuild tonight or tomorrow night.
FV was closed so not to destroy it even more, the canon rail down the bottom was super exposed, hopefully they can salvage most of the park, its in such good form atm. otherwise they are going to rebuild that aswell, either way im sure it will return to glory

Weather today: windy as hell and low as shit vis, in other words, FUCKED!

Rode 2 laps through FV, then got past the quarter pipe at the bottom and saw the sturt t-bar line had become ridiculous. after standing and talking with my mate for about 20 minutes we both decided that no featured had a good enough hike/reward ratio.
We then headed over to leichardt and to no surprise find yet another heinous line, so we went up the t-bar then just hiked the donkey rail and filmed abit. My mate stomped 50-50 front 3 out on the first filmed run, clean as hell, even despite the shitty vis and horrible winds.
After awhile we both got over it and went to happy valley t bar, where i decided not to watch then turn around and start a fight with the first pole LOL
Piper was closed for wind hold, Fronters and leichardt both had slight rebuilds, there doing more work tonight.

Decided to get up early this morning again.
First lift up Mt P, first down Vista and probably third down Mt P.  Super fun and fast.  Getting cut up and going soft pretty quick tho..
