Tarje Haakonsen's Vertical Snowboarding

This guy braves the peak 7601 and dares to snowboard almost vertical slope (actually something about 60% inclination). Luckily no avalanche hit him...

I would have thought it would be a bit more than 60%, I was watching the ski championships the other day and part of the slope was at 75%.

Its nice to see a snowboarder not just sitting on his ass all the way down for once.

Tarje is GOD. Putting Hannah and Shaun in the video is lame. I can really do without their 2 cents. 5/5

Viking courage! (madness)
he is Norwegian and so am i, compared to most snowboarders Teerje Håkonsen is a real sportsman, i met him randomly playing soccer in my hometown Tromsø (all the way north in norway, only "big" town that far north, but its not really big at all) played a cuple of rounds and then i had to get a DVD delivered xD

down to earth cool guy, i dont really like snowboarding but i got tons of respect for Terje

Far out I miss snowboarding, cant wait to go next july here in Aus its fucking awesome.
IMO snobarding isnt as hard as surfing,skate boarding and stuff I was there for like one weekend and I knew how to snowboard. Plus it`s not that bad when you stack it unless you hit a tree lol
