Flying, skateboarding and seeing friends from the past…

Wow, i have been busy lately.

Well not that but in a good way. Me and Brett went up the mountain for some soaring with our Little Clouds. Sadly it was not realy straight on so the lift was not good. I tried a couple of times, got some soaring and a lot of kiting. Brett decided to film and take pictures of me playing.

Then last sunday i drove my Toyota ModelF the 800 km to Vänersborg and Vargön. This is where my mom and dad lives. So i spent some time with them. Realy nice to hang with my parents. I’m a crap son when it comes to visiting and remembering birthdays…

Also i met an old friend i had not seen for 25 years!!! It was epic to see him again. Back in the days we went on interrail together with our skateboards. We had loads of fun on that trip… Nowadays he is a rockabilly and plays in the band Astrolites and drives a Ford Buisiness -49… Cool cat.

After some days in Vargön(Wolfisland) is left for Gothenburg to sell my loved Toyota bus and to visit two more friends.

First evening in gothenburg i needed a skatesession. Me and my good old friend Henrik Wadsten went down to Area 51. This place is fantastic. It’s a gigantic room in a mountain. Inside the rockroom there are ramps and pools of different size and style. A skaters paradise during the cold winter.

We enjoyed the bowl with a backyardpoolstyle corner. Smiling and laughing most of the time we cruiseed around and did our stuff. A couple of hard slams later we had to leave to get Henriks kids. It was about time anyway…

After pizza and wine we checked “Who cares” about and with Duane Peters. A thrilling story of a man who should been dead twice… He still skates like a maniac. Duane Peters is the “master of disaster”. The man who invented the INDY AIR!

Skateboarding is something i will stop doing when i die. It’s still so much fun. Everytime. I started skating in 1977 when my friend Steven Trolin came back from Canada with a plastic skateboard. Hmm, i’m getting all sentimental…

In the mid eighties PowellPeralta skateboards were the shit. I decided to get a replica from those days together for our house. It’s now ready after getting hold of some Independent stage 10, 149(should have been old 151) for half the price at Stadium in Gothenburg. This is my tenth complete skateboard i have at the moment…

Jonna says it’s scary, the graphic. Hmm. I think it’s a beauty

And yeah i have now sold my fantastic Toyota Model F. An epoch in my life has come to an end. I will miss the trips in my Toyota. Luckily i have the memories.

Henry Rollins is in Sweden(or was), i was not in the right town the dates he did his crazy thing. Check him on Spotify or Itunes. Great fun standup comedian. Used to sing in Black flag.

Jonna had her friend Paula here for some days. Sadly it was superdupercold most of the time she was here. Though they dressed up finnish style and went for it… Cute girls huh?
