ELEMENT EUROPE UK TRIP |
|
| Janne Saario, Jo Lorenz, Pirkka Pollari, Bas Janssen and local riders Lucien Clarke and Chris Gibbons spent one week in the UK together to skate some of the best spots in Bristol, Birmingham, Cardiff and London. For the second week of the trip Michael Mackrodt, Sebastian Hepp and Gauthier Rouger replaced the first group. They decided to stay around London because there are so many spots to skate except for a one-day trip to Milton Keynes. More news about this trip is coming out in a future addition of Sidewalk magazine. |
