A day in Copenhagen with Hjalte Halberg (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUBAgsCNBj8#ws)
-
that carhart video clip of him was super sick. it appears pontus' brand is going well for him which is good to see.
-
well deserved!
-
yes! A lot of good stuff in both those vids.
-
i've been wondering when hjalte halberg was gonna turn pro
-
This guy kills it! Deserved
-
fucking yea!
this thread made me more stoked to go to Denmark this spring!
-
Fuck yeah. We need more scandinavian pros
-
I'll back anybody who has naked dudes jumping into the water as their ender.

I was fortunate enough to see Hjalte destroying Faelledspark in Copenhagen last year. He possesses the enviable marriage of raw power and quick feet. Well deserved & good luck!
-
Still can't believe he filmed all that shit in one day...
Guy's seriously good.
-
Attn all you Scandinavians,
I'd never heard of him until In Search of The Miraculous and been syched on him since. So just wondering, has he been around/known in Europe for some years? The guy is seriously good and I can't see how I hadn't heard of him before.

Im from Denmark, and i skate with him every now and then. He travels a lot these days with Nike and so on. He has been well known around here for a loong time. He is part of an OG crew called TBC (the batman crew), therefore the batman sticker on the board. He is one of the most talented and raw skateboarders i know. So much power when he skates. You should check out his older parts from the Danish video called curious and the cph streetmachine promo. He is really sick - deserves that polar board without a doubt.
The graphic of the board is a bs smith on Jarmers plads in Copenhagen. One of the best spots in the city where everybody hangs out! Such a fresh graphic!

Hey man since you're from Denmark - what was is called that one video of this crew that skate a lot of DIY stuff and few of the guys are on Anti-Hero flow and so on... I watched it once, it was totally random and really good but I forgot to bookmark it. I'd appreciate a lot if you could help me out!

Its Balder Lehman who makes those. It's mainly Balder and Peter Stege whos skating in them.
The clips are called H clip #number. They have been making them for years now! They are around number 40-something. I think the one linked here was 41 or so?
His profile is here. He does not upload them all there though.

This footy is from that clip
Balder Lehmann raw footy 2011 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJKrA1JsROk#)
But its kinda hard to find all those clips cause they are never really easy to search on youtube. But just search Balder Lehmann and he will have a lot of footy coming up.

Sick! Sweden in the winter is fucked up, I know they're underground but skating in a t-shirt is ballsy.
Hjalte smashes it.

Skated with a few of those guys when they visited Israel and they really got me hyped on visiting Denmark.
Copenhagen seriously looks like it was built to be skated,especially Yammas (sp?)

You don't sweat when you skate?

Hjalte just had an interview on the danish skateboard site/magazine www.wdbm.dk (http://www.wdbm.dk)
Its in danish, but I just translated it the best i could. Sorry about the stranges frases and misspelling. Hope you enjoy it - Hjalte is the illest!!
How does it feel to skate with a board that has your name on it?
Its nice – ALL your tricks are easier when you have a pro-board!
Can you feel some extra pressure now when you has been bumped to pro status
Oh yes, enormous pressure, Pontus calls everyday and wants photos and footy… Nah, it has gotten a bit more serious after I jumped the Polar train. Pontus requires a few different things, but its all good, or else I would just be skating Jarmers and ‘Parken’ everyday. I can do that when I get old!
How much do you think it will effect your life, becoming pro?
Not much, I have been working on the Polar video and some other stuff for some time now. I will still dedicate most of my time to skateboarding. I will never be rich off it though, quite the opposite.
Do you stop working at the kindergarden and become a full-time skateboarder?
Both yes and no. I have worked through most of the winter, but from February and forward the tours start coming and I wont have time for work. I have 5 tours planned for this spring, and it gets even more hectic the closer to summer we gets. Maybe I wont have time to work again until fall. Maybe I can do something in-between tours at my fathers horticulture. I will probably be pretty broke through the year. That’s how it is to be a struggling artist, as Høst (Danish skater) would have said it.
Have you had any influence on your (e) graphic (s)?
Yes definitely. The Jarmers board was my idea. So usually Pontus sits all day long and draw, and then he sends me a lot of proposals that I have to choose from. He also asks me if I have some good ideas, but I think really it's hard to think of something original to suit me. Finally came up with some suggestions!!
What should we expect from your first pro part from POLAR?
A lot of nudity, speed, bacic tricks and a lot of Scandinavian spots. Pontus pushes me into a little of each.
What was the hardest part of filming for your POLAR party?
That I should be naked all the time and that the spots we skate is fucking rugged.
Will we see you in Copenhagen / DK again, now that you have to travel the world and skate and shoot?
Well Copenhagen is my home base. Maybe I will come to be more in Malmö than Copenhagen this summer, but Copenhagen is my base.
Have you thought about standing in the Pro contests now? F.ex Tampa Pro or Cph Pro?
No, not really, Pontus says I need to skate Cph Pro, but I think I will call in sick that day.
How is the Pontus as a boss?
He is good. He pulls in my skating, pushes me all the time and what's possible for me. Clearly requires something more than what I've tried before, but I like it!
Do you have any last words or advice you can give the little kids out there who want to be Pro, like you?
Skate as one from Scandinavia, and not from the U.S. – And skate more street.
The last words?
Word for the whole Jarmers crew, you know who you are, Respect for the hole team and the park crew. (Special thanks to Dino for sending me Good morning messages, even when it snows and hails). Peace out!
Thanks - and congratulations on the new title!
