Drop Inn Mini Ramp Day
The homies in Barcelona have been busy. If you guys saw the video we posted a few months ago about Sergi Nicolas' shop - Drop Inn, you will have seen he has a Mini Ramp in the basement of his shop. This video is of a session they had on his ramp, it shows that you don't need big ramps to have an awesome skate and get some super sick footage. We want to skate it!
