Xgames skateboard champion Bob Burnquist wife Jennifer shows their support for Greenpeace's forests campaign

X Games Skateboard Champion Bob Burnquist and his wife Jennifer joined us at the Ecosystem festival in the Amazon - to support the Greenpeace campaign to save the world's last remaining ancient forests.

Bob and Jennifer opened the world's first Half-pipe skateboard ramp, built from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified timber.
