Thank you! You too!

Loved the comment 'the local people are a bit strange'. Could be applied all round the world...... 😂

They should turn this into a permanent ski flying hill so every year there will be a lot of attention and revenue streaming into Iceland. The natural and sheltered slope means it would be easy to make this profitable. Given the bad outlook for winter sports in Europe due to incoming climate change this would be a perfect alternative location.

Oh wow! You promised that you would make this video in your last video. Good for you and I am happy to watch it. Sorry you missed the RedBull event, but really great to see this mammoth ski hill near your home. I am not a skier, but if I was, this would truly be a fun experience, no doubt! Thanks so much. Looking forward to the the next video for sure.

Well, that sounds very interesting! The Red Bull people are really crazy, only topped by the people who actually do the stunts. Lets hope everything works to plan, and its not too warm or too wet soon.

It's still snowing so the window for this has to be open for some time more.

Wow! This ski area looks fantastic! As a long time skier I envy you for such wonderful snow. This mammoth jumping hill is also absolutely stunning. I wonder who will try to beat the record... I'm looking forward to your next videos, whatever they will be about. All warm my heart. Take care!

Akureyri is so beautiful covered in snow ❄️ I really look forward to visit again. That road from Akureyri to olaffjordur is Epic we took it to stay Siglufjördur I look forward to see what it’s like covered up in snow … we went last November there was already some snow but nothing like what you just shown on this little vlog. Iceland 🇮🇸 has a very special place in heart it makes me happy and makes my heart smiles ❤ Always happy to watch your beautiful vlogs as always Take care and thank you 🙏🏼 Sabrina🇫🇷🇬🇧

"the local people are a bit strange..." - are you trying to make new friends...? But in fact, the often slightly "strange people" is something I liked in the books of Haldor Laxness...

Spectacular! Such a beautiful landscape. I spent a very happy hour doing a virtual walk around Akureryi the other day. It's a lovely city with some wonderful buildings - even if the local people are a bit strange. Thanks for the video.

Ski jumpers are a weird bunch. During the Calgary Olympics in 1988 - some of you might remember England's contributor "Eddie the Eagle"! I've never understood going down a slope crazy fast on 2 sticks to hopefully land standing up! Hope you catch the event Gylfi!

@@JustIcelandic Ah....so I'm assuming this place must have held some significance in the past - or was it defensive structure to see people coming up the fjord?

I live in a state in the upper USA and we do ski jumping here as well. Not like off a mountain! Our hill is Silvermine Ski Jump. It's 351 feet.... considered one of the largest ski jumps in the country. They host an annual international tournament with jumpers from all over the world. We have had a few local jumpers compete in the Olympics. There are many earlier settlers here from Norway (including mine!), Sweden and Finland. I guess skiing and ski jumping have been part of the area for a hundred years! But off a mountain??? I'd be very interested in seeing the event in Iceland!!

And it happened❤

It is tempting to visit Akureyri, but I have doubts it's suitable for those who doesn't drive or like skiing, even if enamoured in nature.

The jump is now on the Red Bull channel.

Ice, snow, cold. I don’t like them. The landscape looks beautiful though. May the ski jumpers stay alive and may the best one win 😅

I’m surprised the Iceland government allowed Red Bull to sponsor it.

The world is a stage..
