Vans Skateboarding celebrates the launch of Frog Skateboards second collection with some Hawaiian vibes as Nick Michel, Brighton Zeuner and the rest of the fun-loving, tongue-in-cheek crew head to paradise. Jump in the van as they hop between skateparks, ditches, and waterslides in paradise. Started by Chris Milic and Jesse Alba,

Frog Skateboards is less of a brand and more of a group of friends that don’t care about being pro-skaters or becoming the best board brand in the world, but rather focus on being the torchbearers of fun within the ever evolving world of skateboarding.

Vans Europe | Karelia

Karelia is the name of the geographical area at the North-West of Russia. Some people call this land along the Russian-Finnish border Scandinavia of Russia. Similar nature with large forest areas, numerous lakes, swamps, rivers and fresh summers makes this part of Russia a big destination for hikers, campers, fishermen, mushroom and berry pickers. But how good can it be for skateboarding?

Rough spots of Petrozavodsk and Kondopoga that had been shaped by Soviet architectural traditions and harsh winters provided a unique terrain for improvisation on skateboards. Vans Russia's main division mixed with national flow riders, girls and legends went did another great one for the books.

Skaters Dima Shatalov, Lilya Sukhankova, Andrey Melnikov, Denis Yuzefovich, Eugene Nikolaev, Alexey Krasniy, Igor Smirnov, Sasha Petrova, Nikita Kozhemyakin, Alexey Meleshko, Ignat Mazurin, Boris Berestov, Max Kushevskiy, Pasha Tretyakov, Valera Doganadze, Yura Renov, Vova Pavlov, Vadim Abramov.
