Julien Benoliel, kickass bowlrider and marseille local (the two things often coincide) just got into the Warriors family.

Actually a few months ago, watching him at the ISPO in Munich as he was getting tattooed the warriors bat/logo on his neck, i thought he might fancy the Lugano crew, captained by Yari Copt ;).

This is his welcome video. Enjoy.

Here’s the report of a nice weekend visit to Lupi, a.k.a. Raúl Lupiáñez Martinez, spent between Girona and Barcellona. Besides el Guapo de Girona i was accompanied by Andreo Lopes, Marcin Solecki (R.I.P.) and Dare, filmer and Lupi’s roommate in Barcy. Enjoy!

Random Video Production proudly presents the teaser of “Too Much Too Serious”, his last video coming next fall, with videoparts for Lukas Goller and Matteo Borgardt.

Here are some questions to Alessandro Miniotti, aka Killer.

Lately I am listening over and over to the latest record from Gil Scott-Heron. The great African American singer and Godfather of Hip Hop is eventually out of jail, and if he doesn’t make any more troubles he’s going to perform in Vigevano next week. Today I was checking out the video of one of my favourite songs of the album: Me and The Devil. Hey!… Who are those guys? The Warriors?

LikeMilk has recently published the videoparts from GimmeSome, the Random video project of the winter 2010.

Waiting for the next videopart coming in the winter, we can now enjoy these three minutes full of pillows, cliffs and smooth landings with the signature Lukas Goller flow.

A little bit of a typical Warriors roughness together with the polyhedral genius of Yari Copt gave birth to this clip to present the new shades that fit well with the clothing line developed with bastard.

The video for Ultimamente, one of the most important songs on the new SUD SOUND SYSTEM LP, just came out.
This is the first single and it’s called Bisogno d’amore. The director of the video is Serafino Murri.

MC Skateboards launches a video test as a presentation of their new wheels and presents team manager Edo Paris as the certifier. I’m already using the wheels (54mm dual core) and i consider myself a satisfied customer.

Clearly besides me, Edo or Nicola, the wheels are Don Ciccio approved… and that’s all that really matters.

The new MC wheels, the boards and the clothing line are available at bastard store or directly at the source by The Skateshop.

Warriors Skateboards, our favorite Lugano crew, announces with this trailer the upcoming release of their last video project Come Out To Skate. By knowing them and through this preview we know it’s gonna be hammer time… Watching this reminded me a little of Zero videos: they litterally make you hold your breath in between gnar tricks and gnar slams.

Since they have an active collaboration with the bastard JAMMIN’ Warriors Skateboards, on issue 26 of the bastard CataZine there is an article on them. Browsing through it you can come across, besides a few tasy images, the words of Yari Copt, deus ex machina of Warriors Skateboards, who shares his vision of the present skateboard business scenario.

Claudio Sinatti points us out to Cannonball, an overview of this interesting new skate scenario in California.

The short film, produced by California is a place shows the new opportunities in the Valley due to the aftermath of recession… I would have expected to see the great Salba in the video too, but you can’t have everything from life.

America lied to everyone, you can have this, you can have that… People had shitty jobs, they took on stupid loans. If they sat down and thought for fuckin’ two seconds, they would have realized it was out of their budgets. People tryin’ to live out of their means, buyin’ houses taht they couldn’t afford… it’s their bad that they lost’em, i don’t feel bad for’em, i feel glad for me, skatin’ pools, it’s awesome!

The unhappyness of some that stems from their unreal dreams, represents for others a concrete dream that comes true.
