The Knk longboard Camp presented by Kebbek Skateboards and put on by Big Mountain Skate has been popping off. KnK Week #1 took place from July 25th to July 30th and KnK Week #2 kicks off from August 2nd to August 8th, in the wildest part of Slovenia, Osilnica near Kočevje. Week 1 also included the Red Bull No Paws Down race and the Cult Single Set Survivors race will take place the second week. More details on the schedule and event here.
