Lifeblood Skateboards: Unfinished Business – Lockwalski in Japan

Lifeblood SkateboardsKevin Kowalski and Cody Lockwood visited Japan in October of 2015 and met up with the Felem Skates crew to tear into an assortment of terrain. It was an amazing adventure skating the sickest spots backed by a genuine hospitality that goes off the charts.

“Unfortunately, upon their return home several of the recorded digital clips either went missing or ended up stuck on corrupt hard drives. Held hostage by technology for over a year, fortunately some of these pieces of digital media have since been recovered and we’re sharing them with you now. So take a look into an action-packed overseas journey that these gnarly cohorts took with their newfound friends when the world was just a bit more carefree. Pave your own path in life, embrace new friendships and long live skateboarding!” – Bryce Kanights (Lifer, Brand Manager and Art Director at Lifeblood Skateboards)
