Giannis Caternellis – Originalidade #6 Part 1

Around three weeks ago, Giannis Caternellis mentioned in an email that he was working on something special filmed from January through till April. And as an easter treat, here is part 1 inspired by a conversation that come up in his recent FM interview.

“Just think about it. You prefer to do 10 original tricks brakeless or 100 original tricks with brakes?”

As always, thank you Giannis for sharing and keeping the open mind to progress. Stickied for the day.
