Some of Finland's best, Eero Ettala and Lauri Heiskari.
It’s been pretty amazing having twenty of the best professional snowboarders in the world hanging out in the Windells park this weekend. Marc Frank Montoya, TJ Schnieder, Lucas Magoon, Danny Kass and a multitude of other sick riders have been riping up the park in front of the wide-eyed campers. Everyone’s been having a good time.
