Random just published a new clip to present the riders of Too Much Too Serious.
The new clip is dedicated to Matteo Borgardt aka Whatza, an American snowboarder grown up between California and Colorado. Whatza decided to settle in Italy after a short trip in the Alps.
It seems that he feels comfortable around here.
6:00 AM pubblished a depth interview to Marco Lambertucci.
Skateboard, sponsor, trips, work and family; ten pages focused on the italian rider. Interview by Luca Crestani and Ale Radaelli, pictures by Osde and Davy Van Laere.
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!
Edo Paris, bastard store manager and Mc Skateboards’ team manager, just published a little promo video for Nicola Giordano, recently acquired lazy rider.
This is the first time Edo challenges himself with filming and editing, and the way he describes the video in his little made me smile in a good way.
Here it goes:
Fingerprints and hairs on the lens, cutoff heads and final slam! This my first self filmed and edited video.
Introducing Nicola Giordano.

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.
About a week ago, Pure Skateboarding, magazine created by Mirai Pulvirenti and the Baco boys, came out with issue 3.
In the double spread above that opens up the mag, we see Danny Galli fs lipsliding the cradle at the Knodel bowl in Brescia.
Even if Danny still has a few weeks of forced rest ahead, it’s good to see him reaping the seeds of this year’s alarming productivity on his side.
On the other hand the weird (and dated) image on the cover shows Gargy, a.k.a. Alessandro Gargiullo, long time roman skater, in the big pants small wheels era, ak.a. the early 90s, at the famous EUR Palombini spot in Rome.
The leit motiv of this issue is infact an excerpt of Gargy’s memories and pictures, of which he decided to make a book on his twenty-more years of skateboarding.
Gargy tells us about the uncomfort and social akwardness of a young boy in the outskirts of Rome who chooses a slightly different route for entertaining himself. Then the realization that this diversity is a value that opens the door to a brand new world that carries along friends, an actual subculture and a real long term lifestyle.
A few days ago Daniele Galli got injured at bastard bowl while filming a line for his next videopart. The guy didn’t lose focus and he’s already looking forward to a full recovery for springtime. As he awaits for his cast to be removed, he takes some well deserved rest in Valtellina, his homeland.
Best wishes for a full recovery Danny!
Marco Lambertucci, a.k.a. The Bauli, has been Jonathan’s daddy for a couple of months now. Visiting him i was delighted with this happy family picture, who would have guessed it?
In beetween his pater familias commitment and his dayjob he still finds time and energies for a casual gap backside flip, one of his first loves.
Then there were (in chronological order only!) the Frontside Flip and Little Jonathan… But the very first love remains Jonathan’s mother and Marco’s companion Antonella.
Sergio Arroyo and skatefilms.tv come out with this nice checkout for Raul Lupiañez, a.k.a. Lupi, in which el guapo de Girona gets interviewed and gives us a sample of his style with a montage of clips piled up while filming for the new Nomad video and for Ftc. If this is expendable material, i figure his videopart is going to be sick!
Enjoy the video!
Bastard store makes it to the Vans Shop Riot european finals once again. This last edition was held at the Wintherthur skatepark in Switzerland on Saturday, October 9th.
Representing bastard store Daniele Galli, Marco Lambertucci and Igor Fardin. The boys skated really good and placed fourth, which is awesome considering the very high level of the contest.
First place goes to ABS, french shop based in Annecy (really impressive!), followed by 50-50, Danny Wainwright’s legendary shop in Bristol, and third place goes to the Austrian 5boro.
Incredible best trick contest, won by Tim Zom with a backside noseblunt down the big rail.
