Paavo came up as a solid park and pipe rider who soon after adapted his style easily to the backcountry. Paavo is part of the original Finnish invasion and has the skills and style to stick around for a long time. Just as colorful off the hill as he is on, he is one of snowboarding’s true rock stars.
