South Korea's longboard scene is nothing short of beautiful skate spots, tons of adventure, and years-upon-years of rich culture and history. To capture it all, team rider, Justin Bright, flew to South Korea, and met up with Jin Car to show off his smooth lines in his natural habitat on the Apex DoubleConcave.

As a solo traveler in a 24-7 city, it can both freeing and overwhelming. Luckily, Jin showed Justin his favorite spots with no shortage of food and gaming along the way.

Dropping in on a new culture is one of the reasons we love to travel and ride. There's no doubt that we're always in for a treat when our team riders from various sides of the globe get together. It's an added bonus with Justin behind the lens.

If you're in South Korea looking for new places to ride or people to meet on your trip, there are a couple of Facebook groups like Longboard Seol or groups on meetup, and remember that while you might not always speak the same language, no translation is needed for a solid longboard session.
