how good I really am.

Up here it's not much to measure

against... The jumps are different...

What are you trying to tell me?

Why not sign up for the jumping

competition in Hemsedal?

-No way!

-Why not?

If you choose the competition,

our training is over.

I'm not a competitive person.

I'm a freerider. Got it!

And now we're riding down

from up there.

There's Venus.

It's now in conjuncture with Uranus.

It means that you, a Cancer,

will succeed with everything.

-OK.

-Yeah.

How do you sign up to

the jumping competition at Hemsedal?

Don't kid yourself.

You'll break every bone in your body.

You better worry about yourself.

What's going on here?

Mikkel is going to Hemsedal.

He thinks

he's fool enough to make it.

-Do you mean that?

-Yes.

-Are you coming?

-Wait a second.

I've got a registration form

in the car, if you're interested.

-Yeah.

-Oh yeah?

Cool.

Come on.

Nina!

-Aren't we in a hurry?

-Relax. I have to talk to Mikkel.

Are you sure you want this?

-Yeah, I'm sure.

-OK.

Cool. Good luck.

See you in Hemsedal.

Well, this was really pleasant.

Oh sh*t!

Thank you.

Nice try.

But now you have to focus.

-Tommen...

-It's important not to stress.

-It's just to pull back...

-I signed us up for the competition.

-What?

-I signed us up for the competition.

On day one

I told you I was a free rider.

I'm not taking part

in a bloody competition.

It's against everything I've stood

for, stand for and will stand for!

-But...

-I thought you were that way too.

That you were, or wanted to be,

a freerider.

But no, you weren't.

You...

I had to!

It was either that, or

be a chicken for the rest of my life.

Competitions are f***ing sh*t!

It doesn't matter who wins or loses!

-It doesn't matter!

-But you know I'm good enough!

You haven't understood sh*t, Mikkel.

Our little training program

was just finished for good.

Hey!

I've waited for you.

Are you ready to play?

-Yes.

-Take a seat.

My turn?

Mikkel...

I've got the meeting times

and some info about Hemsedal.

And one more thing...

When you jump from the big jump,

you'll do a massive face plant.

You'll break

every f***ing bone in your body.

So regardless of how you'll do

in Hemsedal, you're finished here.

You'll get beaten up every week.

I'll spend all my time

trying to f*** you up.

You made a move on the wrong girl,

Mikkel.

When I'm done with you, no-one

at school will want to talk to you.

Then you're free to sit in Psycho-

Tommens garage and eat lollipops.

Do you understand? Because nobody will

want to have anything to do with you.

Let's see how you handle pressure.

You're up.

Great, Mikkel.

Mikkel...
