SRSC Oslo Report - 06/07/08

Looking up at the sky, one thought came to my mind that morning: "Perfect!"
For the first time in 5 years, we were graced with pure, undisturbed sunlight on the day of the SRSC stop in Oslo. The stage was set and the juicemeters pumped for yet another insane contest.

People from all over Denmark, Sweden and Norway were there to rip apart 3 different skateable locations in the city of Oslo. People were meeting up at one of the latest additions to Oslo's spots. Right next to the parliament there's a number of flowerbeds surrounding a fountain. Yes, you guessed it; curbs all over!

This spot is a weekday-bust, but this Saturday seemed to work out just fine. The spot was murdered in 5 different heats. The coolest bit was that so many entered the comp. Everyone was skating here, kids as well as the older skaters. Great vibe, great weather, killer tricks, check the pics!

On we went to the second spot which is a long flat rail. It's high but once you’re up it’s really nice for getting down-dirty on those switch-ups. People were killing it! Too many tricks to name them all, but Stian Christensen seems to own this rail, Jacob Juul, Jonas Bødtker and Henrik Hays were also absolutely destroying it!

Earlier this year we found the sickest spot! It consists of not one, not two, but three sets of kinkraIls. Not only that, but they're all lined up after each other, with a small single set at the bottom. This is pretty much the craziest final spot we’ve ever had! Oh, and you probably guessed that shit went down. It did!

It's the first time lines went down in the finals of any of Oslo's street contests. Tore Sæter was Topsouling the middle set, Frontsiding the next, not caring he was going mach 3 and fucking Mistyflipping the last set to top it off! Jacob was murdering this spot with spins into just about any trick he did. Fullcab True Miszou's, Fullcab True Back Savannah's, lines where he 270 royaled the last kinker (with a full drop) and put the nail in the coffin with a sweet 540 down the bottom set. Felix Myrgren was hurting those rails (and himself) with AO Pornstars to Backroyal, Fish to Front Royale, and True Topsoyale on the middle drop set. Henrik Hays steezed out some of his fakie ao miszous. Stian Christensen was doing all the crazy shit only he does.
As the sun was closing in on the horizon, the rollerheads were ready to get their drink on and the winners were announced.

And the winners are:
1. Jacob Juul
2. Felix Myrgren
3. Stian Christensen
4. Jonas Bødtker &  Tore Sæter

Thanks a whole lot to Grindhouse for supporting the SRSC tour, we couldn’t have done it without them!
 
See you in Stockholm the 15th of July!
