It feels like a long time ago but it was only last summer we finished the skatepark in Sibbarp. Ben Schroeder was in town for the Bowlriders and came by the construction site to have a look and to have a skate. Ben Schoeder is pure entertainment to watch. Gnarly and powerful.

On probably the last possible day for skating outside this year here in Malmö me and Pontus went yesterday to pay this legendary Malmö spot a visit. The spot has been there in the back of the mind for 20 years and finally it’s been dealt with in a proper manner. Great feeling to deal with such a challenge and come out victorious.
Here’s a shot that didn’t get used for the swedish farmer series with mr Alv we did for Kingpin magazine.
Danijel Todorovic, Johan Linö Waad and Pontus Alv are the subjects in this Portfolio featured in Hungarian magazine Offline.
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.
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.
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.
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.
