Meet Mikkel V. Egerland, former professional snowboarder, skater and dad. His story is about freedom, passion and about spending the time we have on what truly matters.
For Mikkel the message is simple: Go for it. Give it everything. You’ll never regret what you truly wanted to try.
Mikkel V. Egerland has spent most of his life on a board.
First as a skater,
later as a professional snowboarder,
where his passion for the mountains, the competitions and the freedom quickly took over.
Today Mikkel is also a dad, and that is exactly why time matters even more.
Time with the kids.
Time on the board.
Time for what makes life feel real.
Mikkel hasn’t just been part of Danish snowboarding. He has also helped build the scene around it.
Riders.dk has written about him as the man behind M.V. OPEN in Hemsedal and as the founder of Slushicemag, a Danish snowboard magazine. They have also covered his snowboard film The Art Of Love, where he once again used his passion to inspire others into the sport.
That makes Mikkel’s story bigger than his own runs. It’s about bringing friends along, lifting the younger riders and creating something others can be part of.
From skating in Denmark to snowboarding in the mountains, he has lived with the same drive: Follow the feeling, share it with others and spend the time on what matters.
Use the time while you have it.
Go for it.
You’ll never regret what you truly wanted to try.
