- I came up with the idea to build a skate ramp and combine skateboarding and disco. It was much appreciated. Everyone thought it was a fun thing, says Johan Sjöström
Now he runs the same concept but has also thought of young people and beginners who want to learn to skateboard. The event is free.
- We have two people from 11 o'clock who will take care of and teach beginners. We have also acquired some skateboards in case people don't have them with them, says Johan Sjöström.
