Farewell to a friend I never met.
... Thom
Damn, so young. RIP. Condolences to his family.
I never met Bjarke but remember his posts. Condolences to HOP and others that knew him well.
Sad.
RIP Bjarke, may deep, untracked bluebird powder lay at your feet for evermore.
Condolences to loved ones and friends.
Thanks for sharing Mulletizer and HOP.
Rip. Way too young!
I am close with a young family (also 3 kids) who lost their dad/husband in his sleep; unexpected, early 40's, and a healthy guy. It took them a while to recover to a semblance of functionality. My deepest condolences to his family.

I remember bjarke from teletips. I enjoyed his photos, stories (including from his blog), and input about stiff skis for tele. He turned me onto the volkl explosive. I greatly appreciated his contributions (and influence) to the ski forums: kind, honest, and respectful.
This pic is a poster on the wall at the Voilé HQ, BTW.Quote:

In any case, he (and hop) were the local badasses on the board, and I feel fortunate to have skied with both. I too met bjarke fer realz for the first time at La Grave when I was visiting Glisseur my initial trip there. I remember hanging out at Le Pub and skiing off the télépherique with a real gentleman, a great skier and an all-around bon vivant. He will definitely be missed.
And as he was a Dane:
"Goodnight, sweet prince. And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest."
I too remember him from teletips, always thought it was cool that such an accomplished skier contributed the way he did. Way too young. RIP Bjarke, and condolences to his friends and family.
That first pic on Coreshot is from our place in Tahoe: Radness, wood panelling, ugly super comfy couch, and all. I was just reminiscing about that trip and Steeze day this past weekend. I'll never forget the awesome one liner he busted out to the people on the lift when we were dorking around on High School air... Reading the Coreshot tribute is a wonderful blast from the past. Thanks hop for putting that up and thanks Mulletizer for letting us all know. Bjarke was an awesome human being, and I consider myself lucky to have met him. He will be sorely missed.
I had to screenshot that pic from a thumbnail the last bit of Bjarke's website. Radness. So much radness.Quote:

Steeze Day was so much fun day, as were most every day of that season. I never imagined that some of the people I met back then - many of them with Bjarke - would be some of the most important people to me now.
RIP...so sad. Best to family.
Looks like a young, healthy guy. So sad. Hits home as we are the same age and with kids. Thoughts for his family and kids. RIP
WOW you just never know. Prayers for family and friends.
Sad, sad news, especially for family and friends. I remember him from Ttips where he was solid and inspirational.
That was a fine tribute Mulletizer.
Well said, M.
He or she who inspires the most, wins.
Condolences to family and friends.
Big respect for a guy like that: rip and r.i.p.
Rest in peace, Telepath.
I'm sorry to hear that. And 3 kids? Ouch. Vibes.
RIP. Tragic doesn't even begin to describe something like this.
terrible loss
mortality is a bitch
Rest In Peace, Bjarke
..like a candle in a blizzard..
Godspeed
I've been thinking about Bjarke and ttips and decender all afternoon. I never met Bjarke or anybody from those forums, but the stoke was strong.
I wonder if Linken ever gave Bjarke an ownership interest! I wonder how many people bought those bindings because he was on them
those were good days. I don't really spend time looking back, but in some ways I miss them
I remember the positive vibe from Bjarke on TTips. Sad news. RIP and best to his family.
Oh crap :-( not on here much these days, very sorry to hear the news and the loss for all. RIP
