Ordos is effectively a ghost town located in Inner Mongolia, a city that was built to house 1 million but is currently only occupied by roughly 30,000.

Charles Lanceplaine, alongside Patrik Wallner and Tommy Zhao, decided to organise a skate trip to the city to be the first people to explore the places skateable potential. Check the resulting clip below now and be amazed – featuring the skating of Jay Meador, Gustav Nymans, Tommy Zhao, Alexander Hwang, James Capps, Elliott Zelinskas and Brian Dolle.
