Ulvang is Outside With Selma Mandi Pettersen
Selma Pettersen, a 16-year-old girl from Oslo, has found her own unique form of freedom on four wheels. She shares her love for skating and how it gives her a sense of limitless freedom. Starting in Thorsov, Oslo, Selma had a different childhood. Her parents bought a sailboat, which took the family on a journey around the world.
"Living on a boat gave us the freedom to explore the world and meet new people."
Selma expresses how skating has now become a source of freedom for her. When she skates, she feels as though she can fly. Skating gives her the opportunity to explore the streets of Oslo on her own terms, with no rules to limit her. Selma loves being outdoors and feels that skating helps her clear her mind.
"Achieving something new after trying for a long time gives me a sense of accomplishment."
