Arto Saari Moves To Alien Workshop

E365 -- Big news in the skating world is that long-time Flip team member Arto Saari will now be riding for Alien workshop.

The move is in effect as of now.

No hard feeling at Flip, though, where everyone supports Arto in his move.

"Arto is like a brother to me. After years of being on the same team with the same goals it was time for him to move on. We remain the best of friends and will continue to skate together probably harder and probably more so than ever!!! I wish him all the best and as a brother, I shall always have his back."

Those were the words of former teammate, Geoff Rowley, who we join in wishing Arto the best of luck for the future.
