Jonathan Mehring may be the most well-travelled skateboard photographer in the world.
For every trip he plans and shoots, there is usually a videographer along for the ride. Here are some of our favourite companion shorts.

Vietnam
“There were so many times on the road when I was like, ‘Why are we doing this?’ I don’t need any help getting hurt, I get hurt enough skating.”
