In this episode, local legend Joel Johnson joins us as we travel south to Belle Plaine, Minnesota. The skatepark was anything but normal, looking like something straight out of a circus.

Despite the strange appearance and setup, we had a blast skating this park (lots of line options!). Afterwards, we stopped by “Minnesota’s Largest Candy Story”… will Nelson eat the chocolate covered scorpion? Watch to the end and see for yourself! PLAY.

A rainy day at the USD/ Powerslide HQ turned into a chocolate flavored skatepark session with USD’s Eugen Enin & Sam Crofts, thanks to Bayreuth’s Schokofabrik. Luckily, Daniel Enin & Mark Heuss captured some moves of the two, including a quick guest appearance of Mister Borklyn Zoo himself.

“Last month I popped out to HQ to address a few things… Hoped to blade outside but it rained everyday, luckily Eugen Enin, Daniel Enin and I managed to link up with Mark Heuss and grab a quick hour at the local indoor park. Cheers to the owners for letting us have the place to ourselves for a bit!” - Sam Crofts.
