Well, well, well! It seems like it’s Summertime again! It’s finally getting warmer in Europe, and the Summer camps are busy! We have more than enough snow left in most parts of the Alps, and there’s been even more snow coming down the last couple of weeks! But, it seems like the cold days are over now, and the sun is finally getting stronger! And our team riders are getting ready for Summer!

Hampus Mosesson is already on vacation at the beach, traveling and trying to get a tan! No, that's not true! Hampus is actually back home in Sweden! He said he traveled so much the last couple of months that he just wants to stay at home now and chill with his girlfriend and enjoy the Swedish Summer.

Thomas Harstad went to the spring session in Hemsedal, where they built a 40m kicker! Gnarly! In July, Thomas is taking off to Bali with his girlfriend and Andreas Wiig to practice his surf skills and work on his tan. Right now, Thomas is hanging out in Garmisch at the GAP 1328 Summer camp with Stian Solberg.

Cuca Aranda is still catching some waves in Spain! She’s spending most of her time surfing and skateboarding and is enjoying the Summer with her friends.

Island calling! At least for Chris Sörman, who went there to check out the IPP! He just finished school in Sweden and is now enjoying his Summer holidays.

Frederik Austbo just got back from the etnies European Open in Krakow, Poland. He skated really good, and ended up 3rd place! As you can see, Freddie fully enjoyed the afterparty, and I'll bet he woke up with an incredible headache the next morning!

Summer is also arriving in Finland. Although it's only about +25 degrees out, the Finns are getting ready for the beach! Unfortunately, most of our Finnish team riders are injured right now. But since sunshine makes you happy, I bet their bones and ligaments will heal with turbo speed!

Jussi Tarvainen finished his season in Riksgränsen, Sweden, where he was filming with the Absinthe Crew. Now his Summer vacations are starting, which basically means that he finally has time to work on some graphic and clothing design projects, and some other stuff! He’s also getting back into skating and is spending a lot of time in the gym to get ready for the next season!

Heppu Pentti is chilling in Helsinki, Finland. After winning the Season's End at Camp Wappulounas in Saariselkä, and getting a brand new surfboard, he's busy planning his Summer surf trip! Heppu also produced a new EP called Breaking the Bones with his band, Rad Natas. It is a full action package with eight hardcore skate punk songs!

For all of you who didn’t know, Ile Eronen loves rock 'n' roll! He just played his first gig with his band Hi Heels in Finland, and as you can see, he knows how to sport the full-on rock star look onstage! Ile’s gonna skip the Summer camps this year to record some more songs with his band and work on his new career!

So long from the Euros! Enjoy your Summer and go get your tan on!
