henke:
hello


bjoern.t:
heey!


henke:
I was thinking about putting up a short interview so I can use those pictures that are lying on my harddrive for no use since last spring.. just some short questions, nothing prepared really so let's go and I'll make something out of the conversation.


henke:
so malmö is the place to be these days, you feel good about living life down south?


bjoern.t:
yeah, malmö is where I am living now, I just moved down by the end of october. life is really good here, especially compared to oxelösund.


henke:
sounds great, any plans of travelling further south during the winter? bryggeriet (the skatepark) seems really nice but the long swedish winters seem to make people want to travel...


bjoern.t:
yea, nothing planned right now, probably I will go down to malaga for a while, just a week or so. there are a bunch of dudes down there that I would enjoy seeing once again. I have been down there for the last 3 winters so... then maybe something with nike as well but nothing is yet decided.


henke:
malaga has been somewhat of a swedish colony for the last couple of years. who is chillin down there this winter?


bjoern.t:
haha, yea it has been a constant rotation of swedes down there.. this winter not as many, but for sure koffe & spängan are living there together with larssa and marocci. and the ingelhammar brothers are down there as well...


henke:
seems a lot more relaxed than barcelona, not crowded all the time etc...


bjoern.t:
absolutely, that's right. not as crowded, skateboarders or tourists. spots are good though, not as many as barcelona. no metro so you just cruise around everywhere.


henke:
the nike sb had a premiere in sweden right? who had the freshest part?


bjoern.t:
yea, there were some premieres around sweden. malmö, göteborg, örebro, stockholm and linköping... definitly a cool video! different to say the least so. Lewis has the freshest part, most swedes probably like him a lot since his time in sweden which he mentions in the video as well. they had a europe-part on the dvd-extras..

henke:

the swedish team had some footage in there as well? nice with videos that has footage not only with the american pros but europeans as well.


bjoern.t:
jugga had a couple of tricks in there which was dope!

henke:
any famous last words?
bjoern.t:
aiit, noo, dunno if there's anything to add, hope you have a merry christmas (a little early maybe...?!) and we might see each other on flatground over att maba this winter.
