After 'Ender' | The Eero Ettala Interview
We caught up with legendary Finnish snowboarder Eero Ettala on life after 'Ender', his upcoming season and his latest collection with Oakley
The first rumblings of Eero’s raw talent were felt at the Arctic Challenge in Norway way back in 2000. As a precocious 15 year-old he took on the monster quarterpipe… and took a hefty slam. Fortunately for snowboarding, it didn’t put him off.
Eero spent years as a staple of the Mack Dawg filming crew, also logging parts in the likes of Storbis V, Eurogap 3 and Pony Tale. When he wasn’t raising the video part bar, he was on course at some of the biggest events in the world, including the X Games where he snaffled the gold in 2010.
Nowadays he and fellow Finn Heikki Sorsa churn out regular episodes of their web series Cooking With Gas, and he was also the heart and soul of Oakley’s big-budget Snowboarding For Me project.
