Our friends at Dancer have a new 10-minute video out entitled “HPX8000,” which features Hjalte, J-Skrodds, and the new generation out of Copenhagen. Filmed entirely across Denmark, 95% on spots that the skate tourists don’t skate.

“If it fails, let’s fail really bad. Let’s just have fun with it in the meantime.” High Snobiety an a profile on Ayman and Osama about the new Carpet store that they just opened up in Baltimore.
