Sweden surf premier!
Hey! This morning I got up early to get some surf at my homespot before school. Nice power in my 5.7 and twintip 100, and reeally nice with new shoes! It´s surfable in Sweden now but still not a walk in the park, thats an expression right?.. Well check out the pics and schredd harder! Click the picture for gallery! 
Some pictures from my winter in Perth Australia.
Hey guys! I just got back to Sweden from a stay in Perth on the westcoast of Australia. I had a great time together with the enormous Swedish crew that hangs out over there at the moment. I was staying with my friend Andreas Zehlertz who is now pro in cooking kangoroo, in any conditions!
Affortunatly I broke my hand after only a few weeks. I guess thats part of the game even tho it sucks at the moment, I will be back on track in some weeks tho, motivated like never before, can´t wait to get back on my board!
Hope you guys are ripping wherever you are!

Thank you Niclas Elmerin, I look forward to doing more stuff together in 2010!
Photoshoot and filming for Göteborgs Posten
I have been in contact with a really cool reporter and fotographer from Göteborgsposten for a while now. We where out last week catching some highscore-conditions for a photoshoot for the sports-pages and he got some great shots for the sportspages!
Next week when the wind kicks in we go again but with a guy from GP-TV that will make some filming. When this is done you will find the pictures in "Sporten" in Göteborgsposten. The film you will be able to see on the internet at www.GP.se/gptv.
Interview in Search Magazine
The new Search Magazine just came out and i´m happy to get a few pages in there. Pictures where taken in Sillvik some weeks ago. Great magazine worth reading! You can get it in Teamsportia, T12 and many more, or download it at www.searchmagazine.se.
EFPT Final at Naxos, Greece!
Just got back from the finals of European Freestyle Pro Tour at Naxos.
With early mornings we got through a nice competition even though the wind
was a bit up and down. One single and one double-elimination were made
during Thursday and Friday where I ended up on a 9th place. During the
weekend we did some jibing where we got dragged to planning behind a boat
and so on. A really good time, great organization and of course a great
show! EFPT is really stepping it up at the moment, putting a lot more
effort in making the comps something to watch. Great for the tour, riders
and spectators!
So this was the last competition of EFPT 2009, which gives us an overall
result of the year that looks like this:
EFPT overall result
1. Steven Broeckhoven
2. André Paskowski
3. Niko Akgatzian
4. Davy Scheffers
5. Niklas Strĺhlén (Simmer/RRD)
