Expedition Amundsen: necessities<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n\r\n

Looking at the list of mandatory equipment and essentials for the \u00c5snes Expedition Amundsen, it\u2019s completely fair to think them rigorous, even somewhat \u201csquare\u201d. Well, yes \u2013 they are. But this is for the sake of the participants. As the organisers, we\u2019re obliged to make sure that every participant has what\u2019s necessary to survive in the winter mountains, especially if something were to happen.<\/p>\r\n

Accidents are possible. Participants of Expedition Amundsen may find themselves obliged to take care of themselves and others until help arrives. The race crosses Hardangervidda in winter, however. This means that it can take time before help arrives, no matter how extensive the support system is.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Familiarise yourself with the lists<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Familiarise yourself with the equipment list and start getting what you need sooner rather than later. There\u2019s nothing worse than having to deal with missing equipment at the very last minute. In the worst case, you can end up at the equipment check without everything mandated. Then you\u2019re simply not allowed to participate.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Get to know the equipment<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If you get your equipment together in good time, you have time to get to know it. Preparation, as always, is absolutely essential. The better you know your equipment, the more you can save time, energy and effort.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Everyone who has ever completed a more arduous multi-day tour or expedition will confirm that the less time you spend on setting up camp through smooth routine, the more time you have to rest<\/a>. And on a race like \u00c5snes Expedition Amundsen, it\u2019s probably pointless to say that rest and the conservation of energy are absolutely vital,<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Preparations, registration and lists<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We\u2019ve written a separate article with a simple, straightforward summary of mandatory requirements, preparations and lists. There you\u2019ll also find a link to checklists and race manuals for you to download. These documents that are essential for participation in the \u00c5snes Expedition Amundsen. We recommend giving this a look both before and while you familiarize yourself with the equipment tips.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Equipment tips<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Xtremeidfjord,<\/a>\u00a0the event co-ordinators, have prepared a checklist and equipment requirements for \u00c5snes Expedition Amundsen. This can be found on their website. You can\u2019t participate in the race without following it.<\/p>\r\n

We\u2019ve put together a summary below, with tips and tricks related to equipment. Hopefully you\u2019ll find it helpful.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Ski equipment<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Here are the ski-related requirements for participation:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We\u2019ve been asked whether this is really necessary. It is!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

More, conditions in the mountains can vary greatly. The security you get from a solid and stable cross-country BC ski with a steel edge has proven to be important, especially when things get hard and icy on descents with a 40kg sled in tow. The choices are justified, so we, as organisers and co-ordinators, are pretty clear that this equipment list is absolutely not open to discussion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We, \u00c5snes and Xtremeidfjord, are often asked about specific recommendations for equipment, skins, strategy, and solutions. While there\u2019s no definitive answers, from experience we can say that some choices will be more successful than others.<\/p>\r\n

Through consultation with previous participants, the \u00c5snes Expert Panel (several of us at \u00c5snes and in the Panel have participated in the race), and Xtremeidfjord, we\u2019ve put together some suggestions and strategic advice below.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Our suggestions for skis<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Main skis:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Many prefer to use either the \u00c5snes Mountain Race 48<\/strong> (which was, to some extent, developed for this race), \u00c5snes Amundsen, \u00c5snes B\u00f8rge Ousland or \u00c5snes Gamme<\/strong> as their number one ski.<\/p>\r\n

If there\u2019s a lot of fresh snow, our suggestion is to go for the Amundsen or the very light Mountain Race 48. These have good support and are the most efficient skis for such conditions.<\/p>\r\n

If conditions are more straightforward, the B\u00f8rge Ousland or Gamme will be slightly more versatile, and offer more control on the downhill. If you choose to go with a single model, these are good choices.<\/p>\r\n

If you wax with hard grip wax, you can just stick a skin on top<\/a> if you need to, peeling it off if when conditions are really great.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Second skis:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Gamme and the B\u00f8rge Ousland<\/strong>, being considerably versatile, are good choices. Many choose to go for skis such as the \u00c5snes Nansen, the \u00c5snes Ingstad,<\/strong> or even a slightly more downhill-oriented ski. There may be an advantage to a slightly more stable ski on descents. With their more forgiving camber, these skis are less technically demanding to ride when tired \u2013 albeit they aren\u2019t wholly as efficient on the flats.<\/p>\r\n

This is the ski to use with a long skin for the race\u2019s opening uphill leg. Bring extra skins and wax for this ski, too. If it becomes your principal ski, that\u2019ll be more than necessary.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n
<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\n\r\n

Personal preferences and strategic choices<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The vast, vast majority\u00a0choose to bring two pairs of skis each<\/strong>. This way, you have skis for different conditions. Perhaps you can cruise on one pair, and tackle the downhills on another.<\/p>\r\n

Many prefer to take a slightly wider ski with a long skin attached<\/strong>. With skis like these, you don\u2019t immediately expend your energy on the first steep ascent, wearing yourself out at the beginning. After this section, they go on the pulk as back-up skis. Exactly which two pairs you choose depends on your strategy and personal preference. But it\u2019s still an advantage to have thought this through and to actually bring two pairs of skis each.<\/p>\r\n

Ideally, the ski you bring with you as your primary ski should be both waxable and have a solution for attaching short skin<\/strong>s. It should work with a pulk, have good camber, track straight, and and offer efficient propulsion on the flats. It\u2019s also an advantage to bring several pairs of short skins, covering all conditions, minimising the time you spend in the cold.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The skin system<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Long skin:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Put a narrow 35mm\/45mm mohair long skin on the skis you use at the start of the race before putting them on the pulk. Remove the skin at the first break\/overnight. For the rest of the race, use those skis with either a short skin or wax.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Short skin:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The skis you\u2019ll use most during the race will be narrower. Ideally they should function throughout the race. Cork in hard wax (Swix Blue) before putting the skin on top. Here we recommend a 45mm mohair, mix or 40mm Race skin, trimmed and adapted to your skis and your skills. Then you\u2019ll get the most out of the skin.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Remember spare skins:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You\u2019ll use one pair of skins a lot: the pair you put on your principal skis. You should bring two extra pairs of short skins too. Consider a narrow skin optimised for propulsion and a 58mm mohair for extra grip if needed. Keep these in an inner pocket so they\u2019re warm and ready when you need them or if your primary skins should accidentally come off.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n
<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\n\r\n

Skins ensure grip, provide some security and can be used strategically<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The long skin\u2019s essential at the start of the race as you start by pulling a heavy pulk up a steep incline. Have your first skis ready with long skins from the start.<\/p>\r\n

Further into the race, short skins will be key. \u2028You\u2019ll want yours to be well tested and customised to your equipment.\r\n\r\n

If you create a \u201csystem\u201d with several short skins, you have some security against contingencies \u2013 and you can react when conditions change. If conditions permit grip wax, you have some very versatile options.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In short:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A narrow, trimmed, mohair skin = better gliding on flat stretches.<\/p>\r\n

An \u201call-round trap\u201d preferably 45mm mohair\/mix, will work in most conditions.<\/p>\r\n

A wide skin, preferably 58mm mohair, ensures good grip.<\/p>\r\n

If you wax with a hard wax you can place the skin on the base over the wa.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Our suggestions for boots and bindings<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

BC bindings<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For distance, BC bindings <\/mark>are superior in terms of efficiency, comfort, weight and functionality. We recommend them for this race.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Boots<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Choose a comfortable and stable cross-country BC ski boot in leather, or with integrated gaiters. Expedition Amundsen is long and tiring; good support, a solid shoe, warmth and comfort are essential. It can quickly drop to -30\u00b0 degrees during the race, so a shoe with gaiters or the possibility of an extra liner can be sensible.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n
<\/div>\r\n
\r\n\r\n\r\n

Go for quality, solidity, comfort and warmth<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When choosing ski boots, there\u2019s no definitive answer for all. The\u00a0most important thing is that you find boots that fit YOUR foot<\/strong>,\u00a0that work for you and your use. Don’t over-worry about what experts or friends recommend \u2013 you really have to try ski boots on<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n

There\u2019s a good selection of boots for BC bindings. Here it\u2019s just a matter of getting started with testing. But don\u2019t go for something basic. Choose something solid and warm enough for your feet. The last thing you want is for the boot to fail you on tough excursion like this.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Training<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

“A real challenge in any expedition is that some aren\u2019t in good enough shape to complete it. Generally speaking, we can say that it\u2019s impossible to be in too-good shape. The better shape you\u2019re in, the better the experience trip will be”.\u00a0<\/em>\u2013 Christian Iversen Styve v\/ \u00c5snes Academy<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Training and mental preparation for long tours and expeditions is simply a necessity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
