For those of you that have been paying attention, you may remember that last fall we gladly began a partnership with a distribution company in Finland. Duct-Tape dist., from Helsinki, Finland or Suomi as the natives call it. So after one year of great fun and success we are still rolling along making Finnish kids happy and enjoying life with universal health care. This past weekend I caught up with Timo Keskavara, lead contact for all things Duct-Tape and found out a little more about how they get down in Finland.


In Finland they started kids early on snowboarding. This kid was loving the 3-stage Park Rocker.


Duct-Tape kids are a dance group as well. Siimon goes over while the rest of the crew spells it out for you.
