Vans Heads to Russia in its Latest Video
A big country, even bigger moves
From Russia (with love, of course) comes a new video from Vans Europe. The brand has teams all over the continent, including in the largest country in the world. Dmitry Kononov is at the helm for this sojourn, called Karelia. We don’t happen to know what that means, unfortunately. We also don’t know with total confidence how to pronounce the names of every member of the Russian squad. Fortunately for us, we only have to write some of the names out, including Dima Shatalov, Lilya Sukhankova, and Andrey Melnikov. Part of what makes Karelia interesting is that it’s shot in Northwest Russia, which is not the usual skating hotspot in the country. See some sights, see some skate skills, and enjoy it all in the video above.
