This is Funcity, an abandoned water park in Varberg Sweden. Found this place on the web the summer of 2017 and got the idea of going in there and film some drone footage and do an edit.
At first I didn’t though about it as an combined art montage and rollerblading edit. Wished I found this place when it shut down in 2012 when everything were still fresh so the waterslides could be skated, now they are really sketchy and falling apart.
Skaters: Ayoub El-Gharib, Peter Kallio & Linus Hellström.
Music: Kai Engel - Highway to the stars. Thanks To: Allgott & Villgott and FunCity.

“I started to film for this movie in the beginning of 2015 then I got bored and put away the project as it weren’t interesting enough.
Later on in 2016-2017, new ideas grew with the shot of “Fun City” in Varberg and an old project “Litup”, when we only skate at night.
When putting together all these shorts, “California tour”, “Fun City” and “Lit up” I finally realized that this is really the next nobody knows movie. - John Lonngren.
The Shortfilms are going to be released as following: Funcity: 13 january, Hanglosers Bucketlist Tour California: 20 january, 2015-2016 Montage: 27 january, Litup: 3 february, Ayoub El Gharib Documentary: 10 february.
Lit Up project were originally named Gap City in the beginning. Me (John Lönngren), Samuel Cabezas and Ayoub El-Gharib filled up the car to the roof with filmgear and traveled to Igor in Eskilstuna to film in early 2016.
The Idea was to light up 3 different skateparks in Sweden but school and other things came in the way. Later in the summer of 2017 me and Ayoub started to film in Halmstad during night time and the idea of LIT UP started. The thing is that everything have to be filmed after midnight to count.

“This a short documentary I shot with a friend of mine for a local irish language network about our experiences growing up skating when we where younger.
All the speaking is done in the irish language but it has subtitles and features a lot of archive footage from the irish skate scene as well as some more up to date footage as well”. - Dónal Glackin.
