The Route:This is a 2300km trip from south to north across the icecap on Greenland. We will start in a fjord close to Narsaq and end nearby Qaanaaq. Because of the predictable wind conditions the route is perfect for kite skiing. The Team:Tom Svendsgaard He is the man with the plan. Experienced ski sailor with a lot of hours around Finse, Norway. Most of his time he is bringing jazz to the people of Bergen.
Ronny Finsås He has been kiting for 11years including trips in Antarctica and Greenland. Will his knees endure another trip?
Eirik Lutsi The biggest kiter on the team (more than 100kg). He is looking forward to an easy holiday away from Finse.
Helge Sundet The youngest member of our team, still he has been roaming the Hardanger mountain platau in Norway for some time now, just finished his exams.....................
The reason:Because we all love sailing on skis. Because Hardangervidda in Norway is too small to do a really long trip. Because it will be a test on ourselves and the equipment we have chosen. Because we all want to beat Niklas. |
