The 5th and final chapter for our CPH PRO trailers is with The Finish stallion Arto Saari. He loves winstons, saunas, pinnacle vibes and riding away from death defying manuevers on a skateboard.
I have to point out one thing, that i completely forgot in all the trailers. All interviews where done by the founder of CPH PRO, Camilla Jane Lea. And yes you may think that, what do i mean about founder of CPH PRO. To keep a long story short, Camilla was the one that got DVS on board in the beginning and that´s how CPH PRO was born.
I can only say, that we could´t have done these interviews with out Camilla. It would not have been the same interviews, because when a skateboarder ask another skateboarder, they thend to answer in a way that only skateboarders understand. And in most interviews out there on the interweb, it is all way´s about tricks, chicks and beers, which is ok, but that´s not the story we wanted to tell…

Alex Olson – CPH PRO trailer # 2
The 5th annual CPH PRO is in the making and we can promise you that this year will be the biggest yet. CPH PRO is the only purely professional skateboard contest in Europe, and each year the question has been asked,
“Where does the line go for being pro or not?” The way skateboarding is going right now, ams and even non sponsored skaters are sometimes skating better than the pros, so how much it is just image? Another thing we keep asking ourselves is,
“Do skateboard contests add anything positive to skateboarding?” These days, there are more and more skateboard contests and the prize purses are getting higher and higher. Where is all this going? And is it a good thing?
We decided to ask 5 professional skateboarders these questions. What does it mean being pro, when are you professional and what their thoughts are on skateboard contests.
The best thing about skateboarding is that there is no final answer. There are opinions, but no right and wrong and that´s what I love about skateboarding. You do what feels right for you…
Second interview is with Alex Olson He is originally from Santa Monica, but now lives in Hollywood. Alex is the new breed of professional skateboarders..
In the following weeks we will talk to Rune Glifberg, Pontus Alv and Arto Saari…

ART IN MOTION
A couple of weeks ago, i did a little project for Art rebels…
10 x 3 meters of art in motion?! Is it a bird, is it a plane..? No, it is the newest public transport campaign initiative from The City Of Copenhagen…
In 2018 a new public transport net will be completed in Copenhagen. Until then, the city transport system faces a lot of changes, reconstruction and both literal and physical bumps in the road. The route towards a seamless and cohesive public transport net that binds together the S-train, Metro and busses is filled with twists and turns. So to accommodate the commuters, whose patience may be tested a little during the turmoil. The City of Copenhagen decided to sprinkle a little joy their way.
Analogue timemachine graphics in the making.
One of many cool and fun initiatives, is The Art Bus Project in which a postgraduate group of students from The Danish Design School did a week-long workshop resulting in the creation of two beautiful – fully functional, in service and advertisement free – busses, that are currently roaming the streets of Copenhagen. The project is developed and executed by ArtRebels, who invited artists Mette Geisler Dragelykke and Christian Elovara Dinesen to teach, guide and inspire the students during the workshop and director Simon Weyhe documented the process. The videos can be seen on bus-screens around town and the full-length version online (above) with music by producer Ormen.
Psychedelic inspiration and draft.
The art bus that adorns busline 1A entitled The Timemachine is a vehicle for the commuters to travel through time and space. The artwork is a timemachine abstraction that visualizes the transport system of the future through its technical and mechanical aesthetic. The other art bus, the one on busline 3A entitled Out Of This World, is a psychedelic landscape in which the passenger can dream away, wonder, imagine and thereby achieve an out-of-body travel experience. Inspired by the qualities of the prism and its ability to distort reality into fragments, the artwork creates a similar effect to illustrate the pulsating city and its eternal changes.
For four weeks (until April 9th) The Art Busses will function as artworks in motion, moving through the city, visualizing a public transport net in transformation. The purpose of the project is to provide the commuters with a different view of the transport experience, that shifts the focus from the difficulties that the development creates, to the positive changes they bring
Bus 1A is by design students Amalie Eve Wulff, Dennis Nicolai Andersen, Christine Bohn-Willeberg, Katrine Marie Nielsen, Stinne Marie Wilhelmsen and bus 3A is by Sara Lillie Gornitzka, Sanne Christensen, Nina Cecilie Born, Kathrin Stumpe, Louise Gronemann, Nicoline Mørup Christensen.
