Posted on January 26, 2010 with Comments Off

The Copenhagen Pro skateboard contest series hits it’s fourth year – check out this year’s schedule!

THe CPH Pro has grown into Europe’s largest pro skateboard contest in just four years, helped a lot through the many years of experience from the SpoTlight Productions team. This year is looking even better (and yep, I’ll even miss this one but for a great cause – my child is being born right about then!) as it’s packed with events throughout the week before the actual contest including a ride at the new concrete skatepark in town. Check out some of the action from 2009 below and catch up on all of the events right here
