I PLAYED THE BEST COURSE IN EUROPE!!! (Kippasuo DiscGolfPark World) ft. Avery Jenkins

MY FIRST VLOG FROM FINLAND! I had an amazing trip overseas to compete in one of the greatest events in our sport, the European Open! After the tournament wrapped up, Avery and I took a road trip to the #1 ranked course in Finland for Avery's birthday! What an amazing day, and huge thanks to the crew at Kippasuo for the hospitality! Kippis!

Avery Jenkins is just great. He is always talking so highly about the people that build the courses, and everybody involved in general

[@TruthAndJustice5]

Love how you actually know a lot of disc golf related goof words in Finnish and when to use them😂

[@raffe7889]

Even though I have always recognized how incredible the course and place is, I now realise I have taken it somewhat for granted, since I live quite close to the course. It truly is a masterpiece and stepping foot to a place called "Heinola Disc Golf Park World" and seeing the starting area is always incredible! Happy you got to experience it with Avery as well ;D

[@deadewok02]

dude...your energy is so infectious. it's so awesome seeing how you balance the work and grind of tour life with also NEVER missing a chance for a life experience. that's what it's all about, man.

[@MiniNoahTheWorm]

Yes! I'm so glad you're showcasing this course I can't believe I don't see more coverage of it, it is fantastic

[@kimmomatikainen1843]

Finnish Prodigy Pro Tour is played there every year and there is footage from that event every year. In 2021 masters Finnish championship was held there and that was covered too. Nikko made a video as well when he was still with Clash discs. There people making other videos on this course every year so multiple videos per year. There are not many courses that have more coverage than this course. Pro tour layout is slightly different than this normal pro layout.

[@felixvega6171]

Course looks amazing. Finland 🇫🇮 on the bucket list for sure.

[@martingriggs6362]

Happy Birthday Avery! Avery is one of my favorite players.

[@TKDiscGolf]

Avery Jenkins was my first disc golf idol back in 2011. The dude is so genuine and still crushes!!!

[@joshschloe8023]

Heinola dropped to #10 as of 2023… definitely got robbed. This course is insane!

[@_schnipu_]

And that was "just" the pro-layout.. the special Championship-layout is even cooler👍

[@pkopo1]

honest opinion is that if the course was more famous it would be top 3 quite easily

[@Bazpartou]

Damn Casey, i have waited some videos from you in Finland when i saw those instagram stories from Seppo with you and Laza, and here we are, dman, great content, thank you Casey, i hope you had a great time visiting the other side of the globe, much love and good luck for the rest of the season! Tsemppiä!!

[@KzintiCV]

This is an out-of-nowhere recommendation to me from youtube but it's a good one. I might stick around.

[@mikko7228]

Nice video 🇫🇮 happy to see you like it in Finland. We chatted at hole 16 on final day, really appreciated that. It was the only time a pro talked to me. Wish you all the best and see you next year at the Beast 🦁

[@KanataGamer]

Transition at 5:22 was smoooooooooth

[@mauquack]

i had literally no idea kippasuo is regarded as the best in finland, i live in heinola so been there a bunch of times in middle school during PE class, cool recognizing the locations too!

[@mattmay6348]

I want everyone that rates courses to watch this video to recalibrate their ratings.

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

Fun to see, disc golfing is very popular here in general, alot of ppl do it casually or in school etc. really helps that we got alot of courses in Finland

[@tktspeed1433]

It is the chosen sport of drunks and stoners

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

@@tktspeed1433 stoners? i have no idea where that is from but i disagree hard. only thing stoners do is be lazy at home all day.

[@Buggolious]

@@tktspeed1433 drunks maybe, stoners no

[@Nakkiteline]

​@@Alexandros.Mograineyou couldn't be more wrong. every drinker is an alcoholic? not true. every stoner is lazy? not true. there's alot of stoners in finland and most of them are people who has a job, friends and hobbies just as the next guy has. they just like to smoke a joint instead of drinking beer after work or during weekends. i've met a lot of stoners in disc golf courses here, couldn't be more friendly people. most of the drunks aren't that friendly. the stereotype is just that, a stereotype. if more people would change alcohol to cannabis, world would be so much better place. i'm willing to bet that someone in your life be it a colleague or friend, smokes but they aren't and never will be comfortable sharing that with you because of your ancient world view. they usually just keep it to themselves in any case, they don't hurt anybody. weed doesn't make anybody lazy, you either are or aren't lazy. just so tired of this stupid, untrue stereotype. weed is so much better than alcohol, and stoners are the last people who wants any harm to anybody. alcohol can make anyone a raging monkey. which one is better? only honest answers.

[@Flakzor123]

they have obviously cleared the underbrush out of the rough there, it doesn't grow quite as fast up here in scandinavia as it does in the US but if they didn't put in some serious work it would be quite nasty and definately not quite as enjoyable to play. My guess is they cut down all the new birch saplings at least every other year, maybe every year.

[@southtoe3607]

Yo but for real, Finns take their disc golf super serious, and we all love to see it. Hope the Baltic countries continue to fall more in love with the sport as well.

[@elmoantero99]

as a finn if the baltics improved their courses they would have a boost of finnish tourism altough its already pretty common

[@ztsb_koneko]

Dude, AJ still got it. How many times has he been to Finland anyways? There are videos of him playing here way back, probably closer to 10 years ago by now...

[@markwilson4710]

Happy Birthday Avery! I'd kill to be 45 again, lol. My 62nd is tomorrow. I did ace on my last birthday though. Thanks Casey for another great video! Awesome course!

[@Jeremy-cn1xk]

That’s your full size rabbit right there. Thanks for a great tour of this amazing place

[@kajakmannen1666]

19:56 Thats actually a swedish thing, imported by the finns. Pågen is a swedish brand. The course is looking good! :)

[@jilmarit]

I think it was not about the cinnamon rolls, which are everywhere, but having meatballs with ’em.

[@jholotanbest2688]

What is great about finland is that private land owners can't stop you from going to their forests. That is true freedom.

[@bobmahannah905]

Flip city is fantastic, lots of hills, roc formations, great golf

[@elsmitty2222]

Letting us tag along on your grind is refreshing and motivating. Thank you! Course looks amazing!

[@richardgeer4323]

agreed w 2222 - and worth a rewatch...

[@artem_mma]

I have seen coverage of events played here. Would love to see the pro tour come here

[@djsltx4378]

This is awesome stuff!!! The course is amazing! That kid is money! Great content as always.

[@quuqeli2955]

hey Casey, we met at the European Open i was the guy with eagle snapback who took picture with you on the last day, hope your time in Finland was fun, it was so cool to get to talk with you!

[@codyklinge970]

You look tired bro lol. That course looks breathtaking! Get some rest when you get home! The Homestretch of the season is approaching!

[@jaynorris3631]

HBD Avery! Beautiful course. Thanks for sharing!

[@crazybeardjones]

Awesome EO recap and super nice shout-out to Corey❤❤❤

[@vepsuu106]

I love your energy Casey 💪 keep it up 🤙

[@richardgeer4323]

so fun to watch you guys tossing this course up!!

[@dtatman7]

What I love about triple mandos is that you're guaranteed to make at least one of the mandos.

[@espene4468]

really liked the Tampere course also. felt so hard and seemed so good even tho its under maintence for now. and lovely meeting you at euro open and you are as happy and cheerful in person as on camera :)

[@stighelmer1265]

Cant wait til Big Jerm and Casey is going to have convos in Finnish.

[@eivindramsdal9496]

Love your vlogs Casey! You are so chill, and it really helps me relax. Can't wait to see you in Norway next year(?)😀

[@raveouscarlias4479]

That is truly a gorgeous course! Wish I could play it!

[@southtoe3607]

I love the stache

[@richardgeer4323]

wow - REALLY needed the ladies to join along in Happy Birthday sing... lmao

[@TheRecklessRaider]

Love these kinds of vlogs where you talk on the round. Those videos with just a round without talking are boring. Next time get a mic for Avery also! :D Good job!

[@MrReivn]

Glad to hear you liked it in Finland. These videos are pleasant to watch where you analyze the differences between finnish/european, and american tracks. How would you say in general, which side finds it more difficult to adapt their play, europeans throwing on "typical american golf course" tracks, or americans on these "typical european forest" tracks?

[@vetskupyromaani]

Happy birthday to Avery from finland🎉🎉🥳🥳

[@SnowTroIl]

Nice work with the finnish phrases!

[@sepporu]

Casey, DiscGolfPark Mijas in Mijas, Spain. Nearest airport I believe is Alicante. Would love to see a video from there even tough it's far away from your home.

[@turkey_tom924]

That was awesome to get a glimpse of your amazing experience!

[@ShardCollector]

Wow! I've played that course multiple times and it's always in good shape. Or as they say in Heinola: "Nurtsit on millissä" 👍 But it's definitely not one to tackle it you haven't eaten all day. So demanding physically with the elevations. Great round and nice video. Thanks for visiting 😊

[@mr1ply764]

Easy way to convert meters to ft. m x 3 + (m / 3) = ft It’s not exact but usually within a few feet. Example 100m x 3 + (100/3)= 333 ft. The actual is 328.

[@Falcon888]

It might be easier for people to do meters times three then add 10% of that number. 100 x 3 = 300 plus 10% of that is 330. Also results in a close figure and 10% times anything is easy.

[@mr1ply764]

@@Falcon888 I like that. That is consistently closer.

[@juhonieminen4219]

5:18 For wishing Good Luck "Tsemppiä!" (=winning spirit) and "Onnea!" (=lucky streak) are both right.

[@tktspeed1433]

I'd say a good translation for tsemppiä would be something like "go get it"

[@Buggolious]

@@tktspeed1433 good luck

[@juhonieminen4219]

@@tktspeed1433 I checked the origins of the word. It comes from swedish 'kämpa', which is also for "kamppailu" (battle) in finnish. So the best translation for Tsemppiä would be "Fight for it!" or "Keep fighting!"

[@johntardibuono625]

Happy Birthday Avery ! Casey keep it comin' great job !

[@TheAeroRising]

I think it is somewhat of a joke how quickly uDISC all of a sudden became the gate keeper for what courses are the best/ratings. Literally courses here in Florida that are straight TRASH that will get 4 stars by a bunch of newbies who have only played like 3 courses their entire lives. Meanwhile, a championship level course will get like 4.5 stars. I'm not saying that this course isn't the best in Finland. My gripe is how uDISC is so skewed and should not be the end all be all. Every one should be able to leave a WRITTEN review but uDISC needs to make it so that you have had to play at LEAST 20 courses before you can leave a star rating.

[@caseywhite4]

I agree that ratings on UDisc have become pretty unreliable, but that’s why they created the top 100 rankings list to better evaluate the quality.

[@henguli89]

Amen 🙌

[@TheAeroRising]

@@caseywhite4 that’s cool but there are thousands and THOUSANDS of courses. I think it’s safe to say if a course makes the Top 100 in the World, it’s going to be good. However, the other thousands of courses that the every day player has to play is where it all gets way too misleading. I showed up to a 4 star course once. No tee pads, no designation from where to tee from, no tee signs, 20ft wide “fairways” with huge fences on both sides for people’s yards. I know you have played Tom Brown in Tallahassee. It gets this great reputation as the best course in Florida and it’s NOT even the top 2 course in Tallahassee! It’s crazy.

[@TheAeroRising]

@@henguli89 I don’t think it’s too much to at least say you have to play 10 courses and write reviews for 10 courses before being allowed to leave star rating.

[@JewsyJew]

Gosh what an awesome property. Add this one to the bucket list for sure

[@cleattle]

Happy birthday Av!! Course looks dope!

[@Arttu_Viinikka]

And there is even going to be another full size(18 holes) course going to be built there

[@pelimies1818]

Top 3 DG-gear: 1.Mosquito-spray 2. Hirvikärpäs-spray 3. Mäkäräis-spray

[@pelimies1818]

May the spray be with you. Always.

[@sannakauppi2855]

It does get dark in Finland when it’s the winter and it might even get dark at 4 pm in the south and in the north the sun does not even come out for like four months.

[@ollierinko9387]

You said "European Open is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity" like you expect to never return :D I'm 100% confident you'll be back on the Beast next year though :D

[@gavinpohl3637]

Oh ya let’s go AJ and happy birthday again 💪🏽💯

[@Quixote56]

Top Scandinavian courses show how courses should be done. Def ahead of the US IMO.

[@kaspernuutinen7584]

That ”Heinola” at the start of the video sounded so finnish😂

[@AspiditesRamsayi]

If one day you go in France i give you an advice. In le mans city, with 14 disc golf parc around, thé best it's "les arches de la nature" in forest and 27 holes. Nice vidéo 👍.

[@Harker22]

Watched your round on Saturday at the Beast. A shame I didnt get the opportunity to chat with you at Nokia. Loved this vid, keep up the awesome content man, and all the best for the rest of the season!

Great vid, I'm going to go play this course still this summer if the weather remains great

[@Koa1989]

I live 10 min from boise and make the trip to sandpoint every year in mid April to play caliber up north in sandpoint Idaho. Too bad it snows so much and the course can only be open from April to late october early November

[@powersv2]

You have come a long way dude.

[@davidgannon7812]

Love the Vlog. Great to see some of the courses over there too! That hat/cap is mint btw. Where can I get one?!?

[@יהודהשנוולד]

Wow this actually looks sick! Really a disc golf maca

[@wZive]

You're a good guy!

[@levetbyck]

wonder why you don’t throw at least three discs at each “hole” (if one- or two bad throws happens at the tee, then maybe the third will succeed)

[@qwerty5000mega]

The "meatball" cinnamon buns you ate are actually Swedish and they are so tasty. Glad our brothers to the east also like them❤

[@mikkotakalo2834]

thats why finns are talking those about meatballs 🤣 Sweden is meatball country

[@274727]

Finnish meatballs are traditionally eaten with mashed potatoes and lingonberry jam.

[@rubensandstrom6824]

Have to say that it give diskgolf terminalen a run for its money in terms of looking good and it’s by far the best course I play at semi regularly that is at least ones a week this summer

[@villesondre2951]

You should try the Krokhol course in Norway! Its rated as the second best in the world.

[@christianbrockmann3896]

Just looks epic and fun bro, appreciate you sharing the trip with us!! Also, and not sure if you know or if you can find out....but what shoes is Avery wearing (brand/model)? I sincerely would like to know/am in new DG shoe mode right now. Thanks Casey!! 🥏✌️😎 P.s. HBD Avery! 🎉🥳

[@tomahawkdgc]

Casey if you’re in Michigan to play Flip City you should check out my private course that will be finished this month only a couple hours drive from there!

[@Cristopher1976]

Very cool

[@JH-fk8ow]

tsemppiä is like saying good fighting spirit or sisu, nobody ever says good sisu to someone but they say tsemppiä, its kinda same. Nothing to do with luck, onnea means good luck

Looks like an amazing place! Are you keen to add to your international course list Casey? Come to New Zealand and play on our Down Under Tour next US winter!
