A few years back I was participating in a group exhibition called Skate Styles at Bright Tradeshow. Me and Pontus did a little collaboration and this is what it looked like.

Two shots from the latest Cooler mag. First one of my lovely girlfriend Gilly Seagrave snowboarding in Morzine and second one Blentarps finest Sarah Meurle doing a gap ollie in Malmö.

New issue of SOMA out. Great magazine coming out of France from the dudes behind Freestyler that is no more. Another Pontus Alv interview…..I’ve lost track of how many now….Sort of the same shots that was used for his Giftorm one. Wish I could speak french cause old boss Jeremie Daclin has written part of the text. Could be juicy.

Just spent 12 days in New York with sweden Nike SB aka Juggs, Björn, Koffe and CRPL. Staying with New York’s finest Sean Kelling we had the best time ever. Lots of skating, pushing down avenues, Coors light, PBR, Max Fish, pizza slices, home cooking and so on. Thanks to all involved and especially to Sean and Fay for hosting and taking good care of us.

Servant footwear is a new shoe brand coming out of Malmö. The shoes just arrived and the are snug around my feet this very second. Super nice. The ad was shot not too many weeks ago in Eslöv and it is Johan Linö Waad doing a switch nosebump.

It is time for another big article with the unstoppable skateboard machine called Pontus Alv, this time in Swedish skatemag Giftorm. Photography by me and layout by the man himself. Very nice indeed.

New issue of Giftorm dropped yesterday and this time my CPH-pro article is in it for real.

Just got back from one of my favorite places ever, Algorta outside Bilbao. Well the whole area is fantastic, Getxo, Sopelana, Leioa. Amazing skatespots, beautiful landscape, nice climate, friendly people, great surfing and then La Kantera - the greatest skatepark located on the beach in an old ruin. Just beautiful. Algortas pool has drawn people from all over the world and there isn’t many of the top pros that haven’t visited La Kantera, but it is really the old classic spanish style bowl that is what La Kantera is all about.

Me and my friends came here the first time in 2002 with our motorhome and returned every summer until we built our own concrete park here in Malmö in 2005. Anyway it was amazing to be back and here’s a few shots from a few years back.
