“Juuso crazy” is what we like to call him around the Ride office, but crazy is far from the best word to describe this young Fin. In fact, Juuso is a calm, cool and collected levelheaded dude from Espoo Finland. Juuso’s precision can be seen in his smooth calculated snowboard style. Very few mistakes and what should look difficult, will appear easy. Juuso comes from a long line of Finnish snowboarders to break onto the scene generation after generation and with the amazing talent that comes out of Finland it only gets more difficult to stand apart from the norm. The standards are set high and when Juuso journeyed westward to pursue his snowboarding career he stood far enough apart to be handed a video part from Standard Films. Juuso has most notably grown into his pro status under the lens, but with a few strong finishes in the Air and Style rookie challenge and a couple podiums like a 1st place and MVP of the Etnies GvR contest in 2008. Juuso has followed up in 2009 filming with Pirates film production new film "Jolly Roger" we think it’s safe to say you will see a little more of Juuso on the contest circuit in 09/10 but like any true snowboarder it's hard to pull him away from his pow pow.
