Some more pictures of Jarkko Henttonen

These pictures should have gone with the interview of Jarkko Henttonen we did a few days ago. However, because we are lazy and don’t want to edit the previous article anymore, a new post will do. And I guess these deserve it anyway?

Photographer Petri Kovalainen

Petri Kovalainen is a professional photographer who specializes in shooting sports. He has also done some work with rock/pop artists. Check out the link in the right column of the page  (Three new links under the name “Featured Partners” - be prepared to hear more from these guys soon!) Petri is also a ripping tele-skier, which is always pretty cool in my book.

We are proud to co-operate with these guys (Jarkko and Petri) and the companies Hpd Films and Cohkka (check out this old post, about Heliskiing (really!) in Finland to get a picture of what these guys do - also check the aforementioned links on the right side of the page).

This week we have worked very hard to get all kinds of new things to the site: new contributors, marketing co-operation, content co-operation with the guys mentioned in this post and we even have tried to sell some advertisement space. Let’s see how it all evolves in the near future. And yes, by the way, the 25th of September saw the all time record visitor figures here on our site.Thanks to the anonymous person who linked our article to the social bookmarking site Fark.com - the Internet can be strange and fascinating in a twisted way at times…But this all is pretty promising given that the season hasn’t even begun yet! (This kind of site has a strong seasonal change in visitor numbers, for quite obvious reasons…)

Enjoy the pictures by Petri Kovalainen. Next week we are trying to get another interview of a world class rider done - we are going to have a chat with the female big mountain rider Anni Karvinen, another Finn who has done pretty well e.g. in the Verbier Xtreme comp…
