Polar Skate Co. – Sounds Like You Guys Are Crushing It
Shin Sanbongi for OJ Wheels
The title should include all the other names of his friends as well but that would have been a bit too long. Shin Sanbongi is one of our favorites and this video underlines the fact. An OJ Wheels production.

Eat Your Veggies With Ville Wester
Hey and welcome to our first installment of “Eat Your Veggies” a new and ongoing series that will be based on making visits to skaters, filming them for a day or so and then presenting you with some content.
This video was shot in Copenhagen at Ville Wester’s local Fælledparken skate park at the start of March just a week before the COVID 19 measures really started to hit Northern Europe.
It was still a lot colder than now but we still had about 90-minutes worth of fun on our skateboards! Many thanks to Malcolm, Sander & Linus who were the 3 young bucks trying tricks of the quarter keeping us stoked.
Anyway, here is some lighthearted content for you to enjoy while sitting at home expect more of these to pop up once travel restrictions are lifted or loosened.

Oski & Hjalte! – Enough said.
Dane Brady and Nick Rios – Dog Hair
Dane’s got a youtube channel and it seems only logical that he needed a creative outlet sooner or later. Skateboarding collectively seems to care more and more about b-side style footage, we want to see the other makes even if they are sketchy or the different angles that didn’t make it in the video. We feel that this video featuring both Dane himself and Nick Rios is in a sense a cultivated version that enlarges that feeling for behind the scenes stuff combined with that sketchy demo in the 90s type of vibe.
Hjalte Halberg Video Part
Hjalte Halberg is like if Jan Kliewer and Mike Carroll had a child – in other terms: Hjalte is a legend in the making. The Polar pro from Copenhagen definitly knows how to put a line together and he does it with a smile! One for the books – beastmode:
Propeller Island – Tjark Thielker
A very close friend of the whole office crew and the unbeaten king of BS Wallride Nollie’s. His skating is like listening to a very good tune, while you are having an extented brunch, sitting in a very nice and sunny garden. Tjark Thielker is one of the finest:
Kevin Rodrigues: Polar Pro
Es ist schon lange kein Geheimnis mehr: Frankreichs Kevin Rodrigues ist nun offiziell Pro für Pontus Alvs Polar Skate Co. Die ersten Boarddesigns kursieren bereits im Internet und Kevin hat es sich mit seiner einzigartigen Herangehensweise mehr als verdient. Toutes nos félicitations, Kevin!

Carhartt WIP Spring/Summer 2015 Video Campaign
Wenn Carhartt WIP eine neue Kollektion auf den Markt wirft, gibt es jedesmal ein höchst ansehnliches Lookbook zu sehen. Auch der Frühling 2015 macht da keine Ausnahme – das britische Straßenleben gekoppelt mit einer leichten Liebesgeschichte zwischen einer schielenden Schönheit und Polar Skateboards Pro Jerome Campbell. Zurücklehnen, genießen und weiter Träumen.
Aaron Herrington Transworld remix
Die Kollegen vom Transworld Magazine haben vor einigen Wochen zu einem Aaron Herrington Remix Contest gerufen und neben enigen klassischen Cuts auch ein paar sehr kreative Einsendungen bekommen. Unser Favorit ist diese Animation von Judd Hertzler:
Riverside Drive: Aaron Herrington
Aaron Herrington ist ein New Yorker Aushängeschild geworden und beweist mit diesem FS 50:50, dass solch ein Schild ganz schön diszipliniert sein sollte. So manch einer hätte sich mit den “Versuchen” zufrieden gegeben – Aaron zieht durch!
Aaron Herrington on CONS
Aaron Herrington ist schon länger in Schuhen mit der weißen Kappe unterwegs. Nun scheint es offiziell zu sein, dass Aaron ein fester Teil des Teams ist. Auf der Converse Seite findet man jetzt ein kleines Interview mit dem Eascoast Skater.
Sein Part aus dem “Static 4” Video:
