HQ4 – born in the wind

_NORWAY 20<strong>18</strong> – PRODUCTS & LIFESTYLE<br />

32 33<br />

Norway is famous for the abrupt changes in its weather<br />

conditions. Suddenly the wind increases and the air turns<br />

hazy, and then there is a total whiteout, with sky and<br />

ground blending in colour.<br />

The French-Italian team has disappeared. But Pepe is an<br />

experienced mountain guide, so a car is left behind for<br />

them while the rest returns home to start preparing a<br />

meal in the warm, cosy atmosphere of the mountain<br />

cabin. Almost three hours later they are actually able to<br />

eat together.<br />

DAY 5 /////////////////<br />

In the hope of another great session the riders are climbing<br />

up the plateau again. Dyranut promises sun and<br />

wind. The later turns out to be relatively weak, and large<br />

kites of 15 to <strong>18</strong> SQM sizes are pulled. Lolo attempts a<br />

sailing slope and Pepe, Georg and Michele set out one<br />

more time to explore the area.
