Arne and Lars Languth

The twins Arne and Lars Languth were two of the most stylish German roller skaters in the half pipe. They were born on March 14 in 1966. Arne has died on August 10 in 2003. We miss him very much!

Arne and Lars rode their roller skates in spider style. They always scored some of the top places in any contest. Their doubles where spectacular. The twins also played a Punk Rock band.

The Monster magazine published an interview with the Languth twins in its fifth issue in 1987.
