2004 was filled with great events in the Danish skate life. I sometimes don't know what's best: to skate with your friends or party with them. Either way you put it, the two always come together. I've gathered some pictures from just 3 different afterparty-events in 2004.

Thanks to Bo Ejstrup (Xhall + Linköping) and Morten Engmark (Rene's proposal party) for supplying the pictures.

In the beginning of 2004, the new Copenhagen bowl complex X-Hall opened. The bowl complex is the work of Anna Calledda and a bunch of voulenteers. The afterparty after the opening of the skatepark was a blast. Here are some exerpts of what went down: Top left: The actual opening of the skatepark. Top right: Michael Thyrring. Middle right: Christian Berg, Bo Ejstrup, and Seth Nicolas. Bottom left: Anders Toxboe and Seth Nicolas. Bottom center: Christian Berg and his (at that time) future girlfriend Kristine. Bottom right: Anna Calledda and Anders Toxboe.

Old pro skater Rene Hulgreen finally decided to ask his girlfriend Sybille to marry her. Morten Engmark arranged a party for all the old-timers in Danish skating as a cover so that Rene could make a big scene out of his proposal. Sybille said yes, and they got married later this year.

Lots of stuff happened in 2004. The RSC afterparties were a blast, but I guess everybody were too drunk to take pictures. So instead I've decided to show you a few pictures from the 2004 Linköping skatepark event in Sweden: Left: Paaaarty at the Norwegian skater's hotel room: Tittie girl, Ronni Skovmand, Jacob Højmark, Christian Berg, Julius Josefsen, Anders Toxboe, and Rasmus Madsen. Top Right: Kim Halse, Bo Ejstrup, and Anders Toxboe. Bottom right: Bus ride to the skatepark: Berg, Mads Lindberg, Jacob Juul, Mikkel Cantoni, Ronni Skovmand, Anders Toxboe, and Jacob Højmark.

That's it… see you again in 2005!

Happy new year!
