Rowan Zorilla hits the Flagstaff Tennis Courts.
To celebrate the release of Vans' latest pro model shoe, The Rowan 2, Vans Australia held a skate jam in the heart of Melbourne.
Rowan was on the scene shredding along with his teammates and local skaters. Jack Kirk knocked up the course, and he did not disappoint. The stoke was real and the session went into the night.
Featuring: Rowan Zorilla, Digby Luxton, Jakob Robinson, Rome Collyer, Sam Sutton, Adelaide Norris, Callum Paul, Jack Kirk and John Halchenko.

The Rowan 2 is a true upgrade to Rowan's first shoe. The new shoe takes design cues from vintage court shoes and is built with impact waffle technology – a combination of Vans’ dual-density impact cushioning and sickstick rubber, providing exceptional impact protection without sacrificing board feel.
Product Features:
Impactwaffle: The Rowan 2 evolves Impactwaffle technology by pulling it further into the forefoot of the shoe for even more impact protection without sacrificing board feel.
Sickstick: the Rowan 2 sickstick rubber cupsole features a zonal tread design in the forefoot for enhanced grip and board control, with a reversed waffle tread pattern in the heel to increase the longevity of the shoe.
Duracap: exposed duracap on the uppers for maximum durability against wear and tear. Recycled sock liner: an additional layer made of 98 per cent recycled materials has been added on top of a moulded midsole for added comfort.
