Norrebro, Copenhagen. The setting for a wonderful weekend of skating. The first ever event organised by Copenhagen B-Roll was held and will endure long in the memory. Thanks also to 8set store for being a crux of the amazing CPH scene. Apologies for a terribly setup camera. - Bank LDN.
‘SHINE’ (2022) Is the latest amalgam of life, skate culture and skill captured through the lens of BANK LDN. Shot primarily in London UK with a special journey to Glasgow & Edinburgh, Scotland.
As paths intersect and depart, the constant remains the intuition to skate. A central beacon which has guided the collective journey of this group. A true nature is revealed in these high moments of visualisation and aesthetic brilliance - An inner realisation of oneself in a finite moment.

I did, however, film my football club play a match recently. It was surprisingly fun to film and edit, made more enjoyable because I knew the people playing and what ‘moves’ constituted the highlights. […] - Leon Humphries.
