Vans is proud to release Valomerkki, a new video straight from the bright lights (literally) of a Finnish summer.
Vans is proud to release Valomerkki, a new video straight from the bright lights (literally) of a Finnish summer.
Somehow our European team were still in one piece after the OTW by Vans shenanigans at the Sacre Coeur in Paris, swiftly followed by the chaos of HELRide in Helsinki. So off they went to continue their European summer tour with a 2 week trip around the Finnish capital, picking up some Vans US and local team stragglers along the way.
Stoked on the incredible local skate scene, the crew found some time to visit the MFT skateshop for a meet and greet. And it wouldn’t be a Vans Europe tour without Mama Pfanner’s home cooking. Frieda pulling up to the Koffin race event with her signature spread of incredible dishes caused quite some jealousy. No supermarket meal deals when Frieda’s around.
Filmed by Jon Wolf, Max Pack, Otto Ray and Tobbe Tiusanen, Valomerkki is playing now over on Free Skate Mag. Follow @vansskate and @vanseurope on Instagram to learn more about the Vans skate team.
