Rome Snowboards: Face-Shots are Funny

Johannes Brenning is Eiki and Haldor Helgason's filmer for their blog Helgasons.com, if you haven't seen their site do yourself a favor and check it out, it's really cool and updated all the time. Well Johannes came to Bear with us and he was a blast to hang out with, really funny guy. He couldn't film too much while there because of some secret stuff we had going on so he snowboarded around quite a bit. Here the team caught him on his cell phone. That's Eiki spraying him second, kind of funny seeing him spray his filmer.
