Skateboarding isn’t a topic I touch upon very often here at The Adventure Blog, but when you come across a video this beautiful, it is hard not to want to share it. The clip takes us into the mountains of Norway, where longboarder Ishtar Bäcklund and her friends take to the pavement to slalom down impossibly steep roads. While their exploits are indeed impressive, it is the landscapes of Norway that once again take center stage. I’m not sure this is the way that I’d most like to tour those landscapes, but it is hard not to be impressed.
