The Drive: Day 1, Perus Board The Vessel
For the Perus Crew, the round trip to there and back began at the port of Helsinki with a southbound ferry to Tallinn. On tow for The Drive: Pirkka Pollari, Jesse Turunen, Sami Miettinen, Eniz Fazliov, Miika Sandelin, Dallas Rockvam, Foppa Forsberg, Tommy May, Perberi Juuso and Niilo Nikkanen plus the dead weight of Xgames James, Tobbe and Deeli. This blog will chart some of the Crew’s doings during The Drive that were either not fit to print or too random to waste any ink on. Stay tuned the bag of scraps all week.
Soon as we got on the ferry from Helsinki to Tallinn, Dallas broke out the JD.
First challenge to cross off the list: Heel flip tailgrab, executed by Ginger Mafia's Tommy May in Tallinn behind our hostel
We got stuck at this kicker right behind the hostel for hours. Faz, nollie biggie.
Foppa front biggied it...
...and Miika frontside nollie flipped it. This sequence was shot with a fax machine held next to the spot on a dial up connection direct to the Kingpin office. Yezzir!
Raging street Bulls: Norro and Jesse
Still at it
Miika Sandelin is an eternal optimist, even in the morning after a no night's sleep
Find the spot and reshoot a Kingpin cover. This one is in Tallinn, Michi Mackrodt did a back lip down it in 2005. This time round there were no takers.
