I met Daniel the mastermind of '2er' back in Barcelona in 2007 through German Max who spent some time in Australia before hand. We remained friends via email and i went and visited them in Hannover in 2008 before meeting up with the Death guys in Berlin. When i told people and still to this day tell people that i have been to Hannover they ask, were, what, why (even Germans) ? ? ? When i first arrived in 2008 i was only suppose to stay for 2 days and ended up staying 6, Daniel was extremely hospitable and all the guys were just great to skate/hang with.
Over the past few years Daniel started telling me about this D.I.Y spot which they were working on. I had been to the spot while i was there in 07 and there was only a ruff quarter pipe, block and maybe a pole jam. When i saw photos and videos of all the hard work and new terrain they had sculptured with funds from their owns pockets i knew i had to get up there for another visit. While planning this sort of D.I.Y skatetrip in Northern europe to my shock again the flights from Copenhagen to Barcelona were through the roof and as it worked out it wasnt so bad to fly from Hannover - Barcelona. Daniel advised me that they were having a huge Party to celebrate the birthday and opening of the new bowl 3 days before the date of the flight i was pondering to buy and it was all done, Hannover scheduled in as the final destination of my trip.
