snow in the city!

Phew, finally home after a bunch of flights yesterday where I somehow managed to get the worst possible seats the whole way. 8 hours in 38D on the chicago-frankfurt flight, lodged in between a mother with infant and an overweight man will not go into the history books as my favorite experience ever.

Anyways, now I’m home and Sofia has decorated our apartment with christmas stuff, the snow is 2 feet deep outside and the mercury has dropped into the negative 20s (C°). It’s supposed to stay really really cold for a few weeks and I’m going to spend most of it home in Stockholm, which only means one thing; Urban missions. Yes, you heard it right, I’m going to go hit some urban rails, something I haven’t done (except for a brief comeback in this year’s JOSS video), in over 5 years…should be very interesting. For those of you who were around 6 years ago, here’s some nostalgia:

down rail close to Stockholm Stadion where King of Style is held. this is from the time where it was accepted to jump on from outside the stairs. I think I 270′d out of this one, might have to step that game up a little bit.

classic down-flat-down outside the mosque in downtown Stockholm, winter of 04/05. I still have that fur brimmed hoodie somewhere. not sure about the hat though.

Time to go re-live some old memories!

  1. JACOB! Du måste kolla denna spot: http://kartor.eniro.se/m/IZBmo

    En rondell i Arninge med goda möjligheter till vassa bilder. Brevid rondellen finns branta betongsluttningar och räcken som nu är helt täckta i snö. Inte långt från ditt hem heller.
