Great Skateboarding Cities of the Summer: Copenhagen, Denmark is a Must Visit Destination

When it came to building a list of the greatest cities to visit in the summer, there’s no way Copenhagen wouldn’t be on that list. After our first visit to a Copenhagen Pro contest many years ago, we discovered all the rumors were true: The place is a skateboarding utopia. You can bicycle all over the city, everyone’s out and in a great mood, there’s Christiania, there’re canals to swim in, and it stays light until 11p.m. 

Word quickly spread, CPH Pro turned into CPH Open, skate jams and contests were held all over the city, and every skateboarder in the world tried to make the trek to Denmark every summer. 

For this mini doc, we tapped CPH’s own Simon Weyhe and Goodwind Studio to tell their story and they did an incredible job. Support CPH Skatepark and everything they do.
