So the title of this Danish video is “VoresKBH”. I can’t tell you what it means, but what I can tell you is that this is one of the best scene videos I’ve come across in ages. The first reason for this is pretty straightforward: the skating is amazing. The last three parts (Emil Hvilsom, Hjalte, and Laurent Genin) are particularly impressive, but it goes for the whole video:  it’s packed interesting styles, creative lines and good looking spots. The other is that it has more to offer than a few isolated parts put one after the other. Seeing them skate the same spots, go on trips together (the London section is sick!) and share the same vision of skateboarding not only gives the video cohesion but makes their skating easier to relate to. All these things help convey a scene’s atmosphere and I’m glad people still realise how valuable that is.

Remember to keep an eye out for Hjalte’s interview in our current issue!

The Polar team absolutely destroying it in this beautiful film by Pontus. Featuring ‘The Alv’, Hjalte Halberg, Michael Juras, Tjark Thielker, Jakke Ovgren, David Stenstrom and Oski. So, so good….

This issue is all about one of the rawest and raddest aspects of skateboarding: DIY.

Set in Stone is a DIY project we concocted with Carhartt & Emerica. A select, yet eclectic crew, set about visiting half-finished DIY spots throughout Europe, lending a hand pouring ‘crete, sampling their local brews and, of course, getting some serious skating done too.

Each stop of Set in Stone has its own article and sick edit and the videos start dropping one-a-week for a month as of the 31st of January, so stay tuned!

Each of the stops on our mission from last summer (Berlin, Germany; Brescia, Italy, Sheffield, England and Helsinki, Finland) was a blast and we met some of the raddest dudes out there. Thanks to them all.

There’s plenty more in this issue too, we also feature some of the the raddest home-builds out there, speak to the guys who know best and also some basic knowledge about how to DO IT YOURSELF. Get inspired.

Oh yeah, and to top it off there’s a limited edition subs deal of 100 Polar X Kingpin X Carhartt decks.. That’s a deck and 12 issues to your door for less than the cost of a deck! Boom!

Check out the dope teaser for Set in Stone by Sam Bailey below.

Check back Monday for the first of 4 edits.
