EOFT 2024: Best of

With six films of EOFT 2024, you'll experience the world from its most adventurous side—and for that, you often need less than you might think: A longboard, a mountain bike, or six used Euro-pallets—for a wild rafting trip in Sweden, for example.

Joining forces with his climbing partner Timmy O’Neill Erik takes on the challenge.
