Luggage You Can Get Behind

Exclusive / Element New Zealand x Willy Low

Luggage You Can Get Behind

by Connor Hill

Posted 02 May 2018

Willy Low's a powerhouse in front of the lens, behind it, and in just about all aspects of life. He's also just popped out the latest Element NZ video, titled "LUGGAGE". However, don't let the name deter you. It couldn't be further from the truth.

Christian Low, Chase Collins, Scott Lai, Daniel Gemmell, Jack Fagan, Mathieu Lucas, and Ross Emery along with a solid contribution from friends make up the following six minutes of exceptional skateboarding.

Pick up a copy of Issue #66, our 20 Year Anniversary Edition, for the accompanying tour article.
