The tour has ended for this time.
Last saturday we had the competition at Hangaren Hot Sport Center in Linköping. Billy couldn’t participate so he was the main judge. We had over 40skaters in this competition, we are very happy that so many pepole came from all over Sweden.

The winner was Chribba Schjött-Quyst, a Norwegian guy now living in Stockholm.

The team would like too thank everyone that has been with us and a lot of thanks to Billy “Fish” O’Neill for he took the time and went to Sweden. We miss you man!

This is not the last you will see of us, we are gonna do this better and better!

See ya all later!
Patrik Söderlindh, signing out.

P.S. we will update with some picture when I get them from the photographer’s, Vincent had some computer break down sadly.

We have filmed for 2days now and are continuing that until Billy and Stefan goes to the IMYTA, in Amsterdam.

We are now in Linköping for an interview and too shoot some more to the DVD. Hopefully the weather stays stable so we can get as much as possible on tape.

Info to the stop at Powerslide.se shop in Stockholm.
We’re going to do some street sessions near the shop and hopefully some local talents will show and put some preasure on the team.

Keep rolling!

Now at the end of the seconed day of the tour we finally have Fish with us.
Day two started of clam and a bit sleepy, thanks too jetlagg and a tough first day of skating, that ended in some bruise’s and a sprain ankel.
A small summary so far.
Day 1: Herdman landed a 180 in a 3meter’s+ gap. Viktor worked hard to get the FS Royal you see on the picture

Day 2: Fish arrived and got to meet some of the skaters in Stockholm

– Places we skated was Kista, Solna, Skarpnäck and Eriksdalsbadet
Here is some pictures from day one and two:

After a hour of sleep we packed the car and went up to Stockholm to pickup Fish. Well at the airport there was no sign of Fish… After running 14th times around Arlanda Airport and harasing the staff at the information desk Stefan went to talk to a cop and with thier help we found out that Fish had missed his flight from New York, a skater missing the flight what a surprise…
Luckily he was able to get hold of a new ticket and if were equally lucky we’ll meet up with Mr. Fish in the morning. He better not miss this one..!

So not much today, just some free skating so we can start filming and some chilling at Viktor’s place.
