Basque full pipe experience

Maurizio Dayan, Jaime Mateu from Mallorca, Oier Zabala and Borja Casas from Algorta went on a rainy day search the full pipes in a factory near Algorta. Only looking for some fun and to skate these awesome pipes, they went to the factory and skated. This is the true love of skateboarding.
