King of Finland
« on: July 26, 2010, 09:27:57 PM »
hey guys, our friend and team mate Seongtaek Kwon recently won the flatland competition "King of Finland" and was kind enough to tell us a bit about it, about the scene there, and a bit of his history. I thought some of you might be interested in it.  I've loved his original style for awhile now, so it's with much enthusiasm that I report this.  Really rad guy. check it out if you like:

I remember first seeing Seongtaek in an old 2001 KOG video I bought while traveling in Japan back in the day... I thought it was awesome to see a non-Japanese rider take 1st in a class at KOG. Congrats on his win! Nice to hear Martti came out to support the comp too and take a laid back approach to the day.

Random question: anyone know if Kimmo has gotten back into riding seriously? I remember a vid of him a short while ago messing around on the flat for the first time after a long absence apparently..
