Join Jaakko Ojanen and friends as they skate the White Desert
project in Bolivia. Jaako first travelled to the Salar de Uyuni salt
flats in Bolivia about 20 years ago, as a tourist. He slept in a salt
hotel, travelled around the salt flats and met the salt workers who had
their own quarry and produced salt bricks.
Years later he started to think about skateboarding projects that
would be different or out of the norm. Perhaps not surprisingly, one of
the first things that came to mind was the Uyuni salt flats and skating
on them; but he wasn’t sure if this could be done. Jaakko did a little
research and found out through videos and friends that the salt flats
might be skateable. Watch and enjoy the fruits of his heavy labours!
