For you who attended the European Championships and the legends pool session in Stockholm this year probably remembered the portrait photographer Cato Lein who was running around taking pictures of a lot of you skaters. The original idea was to have a photo gallery in our skate shop with these pictures when the summer season was over. You know what? The summer season is over. And you know what? The photo gallery opens up on the 5:th of november.

Maybe we will publish all the pics on the web later on. There are some really nice portraits.

To give a depth to the portrait photos we would like to have a short presentation of all the riders. They should be kind of short but still enough to explain who the guy is on the photo. All help is welcome. Here on the web or e-mail me.

Here are some of the portraits. There are more. There will be 40-50 portraits. Old, young, boys and girls. A lot of different people but all skateboarders.

The opening of the photo exhibition was a success. Lot's of people came and they got some free education of who is who in the slalom world with all the attached texts to each portrait.

Just before closing down for the day Tony Magnusson and Mattias Ringström came by to check it out. Big thumbs up.

Is it on-line? Did anyone take any pics? I (and others ~I'm sure) would have liked to see it.
