The picturesque urban environment of Finland plays host t0 the Strangebrew crew of America, and what a site it is.
Last winter, the squad left their van on North American soil and boarded a plane for Scandinavia, heading to Finland to meet up with fellow Rome Snowboards rider, Toni Kerkela in his hometown, Jyvaskyla. Riley Nickerson, Jasper Tripp, Keenan Cawley, and Ian Daly quickly adjusted to the Finnish version of their usual grind, trading in Coors for cans of Karhu and hunting down steel set ups around the city. – Snowboarder.com
