When the town of Liberec, Czech Republic got dumped on, Dominik Wagner, Marc Swoboda, Simon Gschaider, and friends didn’t sleep on it.

Americka represents all the best happenings when snowboarders travel to a foreign land. They find old, abandoned buildings and stadiums to drop in and out of, creative features, a grumpy foreigner or two, a bunch of cool spots, ice rinks to noseslide across, and it always seems to be overcast.

It’s about the snowboarding, but it’s also about the journey. Watch the video to see how the crew got the best of both.
