Hans-Jakob Brandt

Born and raised in Greenland with a brief stint in Denmark before residing in Norway. That is Hans-Jakob Brandt, freestyle skier. We are proud to have HJ, as friends often call him, as part of our Burn Nordic Pro Team as the only Dane. HJ is a guarantor of good style and creativity in his tricks, which all lead him to win his second and consecutive Danish Championship in Slopestyle.

HJ has for the last 5 years been a fixture on the podium since his debut at the national freestyle championship. We believe that it has something to do with his unique style that is both hard to copy and categorize.

This year he's again been filming with RAD Film crew and we look forward to seeing him in the upcoming film. Check out HJ's own blog hjbrandt.biz.
