Jon Fromm recently took a bladecation to Tokyo, Japan and Seoul, South Korea. While abroad he was able to meet up with local riders Johnny Yoon, and Mina Lee (South Korea) while also visiting our young talented rider from Japan, Ren Fujiwara.

A plethora of blading took place, and this was the end result. Special thanks to Kazu Mori, Billy Lee and Kevin Lee for the amazing hospitality. Filming: Ryan Buck Strauss, Jon Fromm, Kazu Mori, Jong-Chul You, Johnny Yoon. Edit: Jon Fromm.
