Sunday, June 20, 2021
The second stop of the Blue Tomato x Zumiez Best Foot Forward Europe Tour 2021 took place all the way up in beautiful Finland for the first time!

The contest went down in Helsinki at the famous Micropolis skatepark (Elaintarhan Skeittipuisto) together with 34 participants and more than 500 spectators during the day.

30 degrees, sun, great vibes and good music made this contest to a very special one!

Highlight of the day was the surprise session by Hangup Magazine at the pyramide where the participants got creative to get some goodies & cash4tricks.

Also the local crew around the Skate Container (Skeitti Kontti) helped out to make this day possible!
