Johan Sebastian Gulliksen
Johan was born into a horse-loving family, and naturally, his interest in equestrian sports was awakened early on. However, his passion for sports wasn't confined to the equestrian arena alone. Until the age of around 13, Johan showcased exceptional talent as a skier, ranking among the best in his age group across Norway. // "I was more interested in football and skiing back then, but at one point, I had to make a decision, and I chose riding." Ever since then, he has been representing the Norwegian showjumping team. Looking back on this decision, he confidently states that he will never regret choosing full commitment to the equestrian sport. Johan's journey so far, has been marked by grit and determination. He understands that there's no easy path to success and that each stride towards excellence requires perseverance and endless effort as he continues to strive to achieve his goals.

Her commitment to the welfare of her horses, combined with an unyielding work ethic, sets her apart as a true role model in the world of equestrian sports.

Victoria's accomplishments in show jumping stand as a testament to her unwavering commitment to the sport. Her journey is a source of inspiration for aspiring equestrians worldwide, and her future in the saddle promises even greater achievements. // "The horses mean a lot. It is probably the love for the horses that started it all, and I am probably a little more emotional for both the horses and the sport."
