Craig wins Bronze for his performance as Chair of British Skydiving. Craig laments not trying harder to win Silver. Fredrick tells us about Extreme Sports Week and how to pronounce it in Norwegian Ekstrem Sports Veko with Veko meaning Week but that work is only in the area around Voss.  Everyone calls the festival 'Veko' and everyone knows exactly what you mean when you say "the week: There are 52 weeks in a year but there is only ONE WEEK in Voss.  Even discusses skydiving in the free-est sense possible. Voss is the home of innhopps. We know this because Fredrick and Brian are wearing matching brown tshirts that say this. Even tells us about his innhopp project during Veko - sounds incredible Even keeps getting up and banging his phone around making weird noises. Even talks about the first ever Veko was just 4 main sports and 2 smaller sports.  Fredrick talks about the land owner being difficult. Skydive Voss has been around 49 years and they plan to be around another 49 years at least. Local Council has approved a compulsory purchase but now there is a long administrative wait.
