Mattia Molnar has finally found the perfect way for filming his Bosco Gurin sessions.
Simple, handy, affordable and ecologic; the drone (the unidentified flying object close to Mattia) allows the same filming angles of an helicopter but without the noise, it’s incredibly small and it doesn’t need gasoline to fly. Basically you can produce breathtaking footage without bothering nobody.
Good job Mattia, always caring for nature and others.
I think that local Monte Bianco ski mountaineers were looking couriously to a guy wearing an hawaian shirt climbing through glaciers and rifts.
Despite his unsual outfit, Whatza won the best snowboard photo contest at the Click On The Mountain 2011, killing two birds with one stone as he was testing the next year snowear.

On the ladies side
Jamie Anderson took home another Gold medal to add to her collection.
Enough? Not yet because Cheryl Maas was in Women’s Slope, and although she did not make it to the podium, she did land the first ever 900 in a Women’s Slope competition.

Daniele Galli is on the cover of issue no.5 of a brief glance with a bs smith grind on the Knodel bowl cradle. The good flick of Davide Biondani gives justice to the trick and motivates Danny in these very last few days of physical therapy, while he’s on his way to full recovery from his last injury.
On wednesday, January 26th at the COMVERT headquarters we celebrated the launch for the Fall Winter 2011-12 bastard, Electric and JART collections with the Launch Party #29 – and yeah, we’re already at our twentyninth collection!
Fresco distribution contributed with a supply of the new excellent BSA beer and with a selection of products from Matix, Lakai, DVS, Makia and Brixton.

We have tried to behave but it was hard…

A good way to know more about one of the few italian skateboarder well appreciated outside Italy.
Bella Sbrauser!
The guys at Random Video spend most of the year closely with Lukas and Watza. I assume they spend more time with them than with their girlfriends.
At the end of the year everything summarizes in a three minute videopart, that are often not enough to tell the whole story.
This is why Random adds the “Random Presents” clips: 45 seconds with the riders featured in Too Much Too Serious. Here’s the clip dedicated to Lukas Goller.
p.s. Lukas has also designed with Andrea Vecchi the snowear bastard 2010 collection. Keep up the good work Luki!
Matteo Borgardt, a.k.a. Whatza, back from his spiritual trip around India, just came by to say what’s up. He showed up with Alessandro Miniotti, a.k.a. Killer, deus ex machina of Random Video.
Killer gave us the last few copies available of Too Much Too Serious, italian snowboard movie produced by Random Video, with two terrific videoparts by Whatza and Lukas Goller along with Tato Chiala, Lorenzo Barbieri and Filippo Kratter, just to mention a few. If you didn’t see yet come to the bastard store to grab your own copy, it comes for free with the november issue of Sequence.
As a reward, we gave Killer a brand new Degree jacket so that he can stay warm and protected during the filming sessions for the next video.
