JP Cooper rides a skateboard made especially for him by Jakob Hočevar.

JP Cooper is a big name in the world of the entertainment industry. The British musician is best known for his collaboration with DJ Jonas Blue, with whom he recorded the single Perfect Strangers.

He has more than 100,000 followers on Instagram, and has performed live in front of the sold-out Wembley, England’s largest stadium.

In addition to the above, JP Cooper also rides a skateboard made especially for him by Jakob Hočevar.

 

How come that the world-class star through all possible bidders decided on a young Slovenian with a big idea?

Years ago, Jacob’s sister attended an education for young musicians in England. Once, one of her performances on the Island was also visited by Jakob, where he met Joshua, a musician and the founder of a company that provided training. When he introduced him to his work, he was so impressed with the JH_boards brand that he invited Jakob to participate.

He knew that JP Cooper would be involved in his project. He also knew that the skateboard go just perfectly with his image. Jacob therefore asked if he could make a special custom skateboard for him.

How does Jakob remember working together?

This project was a really big thing for me, probably the biggest so far. I gladly accepted the challenge. I made a small cruiser suitable for city driving according to the client’s wishes, and at the same time I left a strong author’s mark on it.

When he sent the skateboard to England, Joshua was so impressed with it that he immediately asked if he could make another one for Cooper’s manager. Soon after, another skateboard travelled across the English Channel, and both were presented to distinguished guests at a special event.

»Maybe I’m just a little sorry that I wasn’t there at the time. I heard the skateboards unpacked very ceremoniously,” is thinking Jakob somewhat humorous.

Of course, I was extremely pleased that we successfully completed the project. As with any other skateboard, I was most pleased the end users were satisfied with them.
