Ulrik is a shy, quiet kind of guy who lets his riding do the talking. Like fellow Slopestyle Norwegians Mikkel Bang and Torstein Horgmo. Ulrik attacks rails and ledges like a skateboarder, with clean style and technical combos. He also kills jumps: He's credited as the first person to land a 1620 (four and a half rotations). In December 2011, he won the Beijing Air & Style with his newly-mastered double backside rodeo 1260. Says he feels much more confident and "safer" this year, but he's yet to have marked success at WX or WXT.
