  • Some commentary on the freestyle contest by Jan Sodderhall:
    "The last contest of the day was freestyle which was held on a stage specially built for the segment. Among the juniors, Joran Thell took the lead with a two-minute program which included a double 180 kickflip, 360 kickflip, 540 shove it and more. Since Joran won every freestyle contest held in Sweden, in 1980, he was the favorite.
    Competition was very close in the senior class. As a result of their seven month stay with Steve Rocco, Per Welinder and Hans "HAZZE" Lindgren showed real good skating. Stefan Spang and Martin Willners also displayed improved skating styles, but the lead was taken by [[Per Holknekt. Surprisingly, he was a few points ahead of Per Welinder.
    Sunday started with freestyle, and, of course, Joran Thell kept first place. But the senior class showed a lot of changes: Per Welinder made an incredible run, including a handstand kickflip, 360 shove-it-to-one-foot, 540 shove it, Rocco-k-spin, double 180 railflip and many, many other moves. His incredible run easily gave him first place, accompanied by as much applause and screaming as the crowd could manage. [[Per Holknekt moved to second place with only 0.6 points coming between that and third place which was taken by Stefan Spang."
