Parkour alive and well in the land of ice and snow.
It’s 11:00 am on an icy autumn morning when I meet up with Joona Saloranta, Winston Spennert and the boys from Parkourkeskus in the car park of Helsinki’s Pasila Railway Station. The sun is shining and in the distance Valtteri Luomanaho, a 16-year-old local parkour prodigy, lands a 540 spinning back flip off a concrete parking bollard in the centre of the parking lot.
