Why expand your canopy skills? Yes, because it makes you safer, sure, but this is just the beginning. When you let your parachute take you to amazing places, your skills purchase the freedom of adventure. There is a great deal to learn before taking on the kind of challenges as you see in the following video, and the secret is finding people who really know what they are doing, and listen to them, and of course follow their advice, and their line. Even then, mountain flying has big risks, but if you are patient, once in a while, you get to live the dream: Laura and I did this a few days ago under the amazing leadership of our good friends at Skydive Oppdal in Norway. It gets really interesting at 4:00 https://youtu.be/2-ijVw9UJt8 Instructional Videos:www.AdventureWisdom.com Keynote Speaking:www.TranscendingFEAR.com Canopies and Courses:www.BIGAIRSPORTZ.com

Already from a young age the combination a competitive mind, the need to be seen and risk willingness turned Espen towards individual sports. The childhood was filled with skiing, climbing and swimming all year around. He competed in alpine racing until he was 19 years old, and the whole time also climbed mountains to find untracked skiing lines. After the alpine racing career he needed to fill the vacuum and started skydiving. It was there he at the age of 21 was introduced to base jumping, a sport that changed his life. It became a playground for his desires to explore his capabilities. During the early 2000s he became part of an adventurous group called the VKB in Norway. They developed new equipment for base jumping and wingsuit flying. In 2007 they introduced proximity flying to the world through the ski movie Seven Sunny Days, and it became the start for an up growing professionalism in parts of the base jumping community. At the same time Espen went into freeride skiing and extreme skiing contests. He did well with his background from alpine racing, and the combined success in freeride skiing and base jumping made him decide to go professional in 2008. A bad injury the same spring on a ski movie shoot gave a three years set back in his plans. He came back, won the overall title in wing suit flying and people still believed he could have a value in skiing. Today he is skiing the WTQ freeride skiing tour, World Wingsuit League and travelling the world chasing adrenalin filled projects.
