How was the place before the skatepark and how it's now?
It was just a abanadoned parking lot in an old abandoned gas factory area. There
was nothing, except shitty asphalt and trash in the bushes.
The place is rented ... for how many years will be there without problems? What was
there before the skatepark?
Untill 2016 hopefully. The area is under heavy construction, and the park will probably
be demolished under the coming years of construction.
I mean, I don’t really see myself as a

friends!structure that you prefer, which prefers the majority?
The structures I would prefer to build are bowls, quarters and more flowy stuff. But I
like to skate everything. Te majority of the parks I used to in Finland are mainly street
oriented, so I would like to expand the horizon of Finnish skating by building lots of
bowls and gnarly stuff!
When , in the next years , was expand you had already a project in mind or has been
built with the flow...
We are always wanting to expand the park, but as we have a company now, we an
contribute to the building as much as we would like to. Fortunately, younger crew have
started to emerge from the dudes who like to skate there. So, th e fire is burning!!
