Roller skiing race against a World Champion
The Most Dangerous Sport Round 2: Rollerski with a pro coach
Become Norwegian
We are back at the most dangerous sport, rollerski! Last time we learned how to stop the hard way, by hitting the ground (and hard!). This time we have brought the world's best coach, Ragnar Bragvin Andresen to see if he can coach some foreigners how to rollerski like a Norwegian - and this time race! Tune in to see if we are able to stay in one piece, and who is fastest between the Norwegian, the Dane, the Brit and the Kangaroo.
Norway is renowned for its national sport, cross country skiing, also known as Xc Skiing, so it’s no surprise that roller skiing was invented as a way to ‘ski’ throughout the year, primarily during the summer when there’s no snow. We found a professional roller skier to show us beginners the ropes and find out if roller skiing really is as dangerous as it looks? Spoiler alert - it is
Pros like Klæbo, Sundby, Northug and Johaug and many other pros roller ski through out summer to be ready for the winter season.
Cross country skiing for beginners looks a bit like this, alot of falls and bambi legs.
Skiing is big part of norwegian culture and there is more to skiing that you maybe know, you can go downhill skiing, backcountry skiing, Alpine touring, Telemark skiing, Frestyle skiing and yes cross country skiing.
But skiing in summer can be bit difficult so Roller skiing or called in norwegian rulle ski is the solution to become a true norwegian. And where is better then the world famous and must visit norwgian site of holmenkollen, the olympic ski jump arena in Oslo. Dont even get us started on Ski jumping, that is next level.

Norway probably isn’t the first place many people think of when it comes to surfing, but in fact Norway has several popular surfing locations, providing waves up to 12 ft! Just make sure you have a thick wetsuit as the water is icy cold! We can highly recommend Lofoten Surfsenter (link below), w...

The combination of head torches an...
