How are you doing at the moment?
waiting for the summer…
How is your body at the moment, (injuries, knees, back, and so)?
Lazy and heavy
When did you start to skate and why? What tricked you into this?
I told my old buddy Kenneth i wanted to start skating and he hooked me up with wheels and a City Stars Kareem Campbell and a week later I was in CPH and bought a set of Fury trucks in Submachine
Do you think you made the right choice (instead of playing football FX?)?
I’m terrible at soccer
Anything that influences you at the moment?
I guess I should influence my boy but it seems he has a influence on me
Do you feel skateboarding is in a good way?
Yeah man – the bigger the better! People used to complain when we were skating street but as skateboarding is progressing it seems that skateboarding is also becomming more legit. And i’m not a punk-ass teenager no more
Where do you stand & please comment with skateboarding in the Olympics?
haha… I seriously do not give a FUCK. I guess in the end we’ll have more customers in the shop – thats good
When I chill, I chill with,
Henrik from Streetmachine. Best friend from back home – dont see him to often nowadays but he’s the best!
I’m have been on a mission lately in (with)
Lithauens Plads – best new CPH spot with Morerik, Filip and Oliv
Lately I have been working on,
I’ve finally re-designed my old website to something new and fancy
When I was little I would like to,
Skate my life away
When I’m home I like to,
Hangout with the fam. I might sound like a dating profile but I like good food and long walks
Your homies are,
Morerik, Hechmann, Gustav, Oliv, Filip, Jonathan – all the boys!! oh and Mads & Niels – those 2 guys are the best!
I enjoy going to,
Berlin! That city is good for girlfriend-trip, homie-trips, skateboard-trips… Last time I was in Berlin was with Nick at Bitchslap Mag to film a interview with Ishod. He had a busy schedule so we only had 20 minutes to do it but halfway in it he suggested we could go to a thrift shop so the interview ended up being a super random walk and talk about everything – Ishod is so much fun. Go youtube it!
FAVORITS
Beer: Ale no 16 – no doubt
Wine: Prefer Italian
Liquor: Whiskey or G&T
SKATE
Skateboarders: Paul Shier, Rick McCrank, John Rattray, Anthony Pappalardo, Rob Welsh
Skate film / clip: Aesthetics – Ryde or die vol. 1, Habitat – Mosaic, Static II
You fave Tricks: Tim O’Connor – bs 5-0 fs shove-it out at Macba is the best thing i’ve ever seen
CULTURE
Art: The only piece of art we have on the wall is a board series by Girl called “girls girls girls”
Film: Rubber!! Google the trailer! – that film is stupid-amazing-weird-funny and really good
Music: Everything from MF Doom to King Diamond. At the moment i’m really stoked on the new Jonwayne – Rap album two. Also listen a lot to Vaporwave things like Teams, Jacob 2-2, Games, 18 Carat Affair and Hype Williams
Book: Codex Seraphinianus – my mom gave me this for Christmas – it’s so sick!
City’s: Berlin again. A lot of culture there. Copenhagen is pretty good too
Best life advice I can give is,
“When you get what you want – will it be what you need” Ishod Wair said that’s what his father used to say and that really fits the world we live in. Everybody wants more and more but they forget to fucking appreciate what they got
Are you good with money (do you plan, safe it, cash in or blow it)?
Getting better and better…
Best travel memory you want to share?
Last year we were at Peter Hewitt’s birthday party latenight at the legendary Nude Bowl. The ride to get there was insane and when we finally got there it was the wildest experience. Shot a photo os Hewitt fs grinding in a poncho and we saw some good skating with Chris Cope, Al Partanen, Stu Graham and more.
Oh and a few years ago me and 2 friends from Scotland cycled from Copenhagen to Berlin with tents, bags and skateboards. That’s actually the best thing i’ve ever did – so many good memories
My fitness program is,
yet to come
Anything that concerns you at the moment?
The world is insane and amazing at the same time
I would like to see more of,
Callum and Ange – best people outta Aberdeen
If I could change the world I would,
Tell people too come down and enjoy life
I will never get rid of,
My dads old Canon AE-1 camera – hopefully my own son will inherit it some day
I currently follow (social media, instagram twitter, Facebook)
@shredderslodge man – the greatest! oh and @pallethepuppy – my man!
Anything else,
Calm the fuck down!! You only live once – enjoy it.
Thanks to,
My girl for taking care of me. My son and my 2 cats – you guys are the best!!
Oh and Thomas at Sidewalk Skateshop for the best job I could ever ask for
