A few photos from the Finals, our night after, and general tourist mission the following day. Copenhagen Pro 2012: Wow, what a weekend...
And the day before that...I've got the last day and a half in Copenhagen shaved down to 8 minutes of cell phone footage consisting of everything from working with my good friends, meeting new skate homies on the streets who explain everything from pronunciation to how health care works, the general culture here and how PDA is very common, and more. We've been doing the classic "work hard and play hard" here while we're in town to run Copenhagen Pro: Copenhagen Denmark: Skateboarding, New Local Friends, and Working.

Cell Phone Edit Overdose
Here's another edit from my phone of some random spots around Copenhagen with a quick visit to Christainia and session in the bowl before we have to head to work a the Contest for the Finals. After that was the usual raging dance party at the skate park where we worked all night to get the edit for the day done, while sort of partying on the side the whole time. What a weekend. Thanks to everyone at Copenhagen Pro who made it so fun: Our Last 24 Hours in Copenhagen 2012: Some Skating, Some Partying, Some Randoms.Comments
