FEATURES VAPOUROUND’S NEXT TOP MOD-EL It was a long, hard road spanning over a year, but @fku_life outlasted 19 other competitors en-route to becoming the first winner of Vapouround’s Next Top Mod-el. Sponsors and this issue’s cover stars Premium Labs wanted to find a new face to use in promotional material for their products and the winner would get a professional photoshoot and feature in Vapouround Magazine. The entry requirements were simple: strike a pose with a mod in your hand in any way you see fit. Entrants posted their best images with the hashtag #VapouroundModel to show the wider world the best side of our community. Vapers are unafraid to speak their minds, engage with the causes they care about and rally around those they admire, and this contest brought out the best in them. It may be a cliché, but we were spoiled for choice from the beginning, always impressed at the diversity and stylistic flair of the people who love vaping. The man who took the crown was @fku_life. Often, a picture says a thousand words, and his are no exception. He is intimately connected to the vape trade and has the multi-platform online following to prove it. Though there could only be one winner, the competition was a huge success for the community. All of our entries showed the mainstream how varied and creative we are and how supportive vapers can be.
