First stop score in the course is a step-down or it starts at the very top of the mountain up there. It's like probably 5.5-meter step-down gap jump. And then that flows into a wall ride. The riders ride off the jumps,carry speed and ride then along the wall and off the curve at the end of it and 1 through the track.

The bikers show off their tricks on steeves,specially designed course made up mostly of turf. Norway's Extreme Sports Weekend is talked about the world over. BMX slopes stile is one of the newest extreme sports of the competition. The sport is very popular,so there's no worry if we'll fail to catch on. It combines typical BMX tricks,but with the more difficult terrain and bigger jumps of mountain biking,it's not as easy as it looks.

It's not all extreme sports in Norway. Oslo is the capital and also the third largest city in Scandinavia. It has transformed itself in the last few years from being a sleepy town into a large modern city with a varied cultural life, diverse museums and theaters. Oslo is also the traditional home of the Norwegian Nobel Committee. On the 10th of September each year,they give out a Nobel Peace Prize on the anniversary of Alfred Nobel's death.

Another popular attraction is the palace of the Norwegian royal family where the changing of the guard is a visitor favorite. The palace is one of the most important buildings in the country and symbolizes Norway's young history. It is also where King Harold V has his administative offices and greets foreign Guests of State. Nearby is the Oslo City Hall which is 2 in Pipervika within the harbour district. With its cafés and restaurants,it's a popular destination for sailing boats and yawls from all over the world. With a population of just over 500,000,Oslo is the thrid largest Scandinavian city after Stockholm and Copenhagen. The Karl Johans Gate is the main shopping street,offering everything from traditional hand-made gifts to the latest designer trends. The city offers a wealth of public spaces, which provide a platform for local artists.
