Lukas Flash Goller, photographed by Denis Piccolo while filming for Too Much Too Serious, spent last winter mostly in the alps; besides snowboarding he was designing and testing the new bastard snowear collection.

Among his great inventions, the closet pocket in the Goja jacket, in which you can store pretty much all you need in the mountains.

Lukas is a snowboarder, designer and visionaire. He might not have superpowers, but once you get to know him, he’ll look like a superhero to you. He already is in our eyes.

Things start off by meeting the dirty romans Nikolai Danov and Milo Marra in Milano Centrale. Double train to Usmate, obviously it would only be a twenty minutes drive! But we’re big time CO² savers!
Once we get there we spot the Real McKenzies, chillin’ and playing guitars under a tent. It’s pouring rain all around. We join the good company and beer after beer we accept the stormy weather.

At least it stops in the evening, letting us party and enjoy Pela’s Dj set…

The next morning, partly because life is good, partly because it can’t always suck, the sun is shining and the session is finally ON.

Many people, many tricks, many beers.. As always, a great day; Bonassi’s ramp, GroS on the mic, pork ribs like there’s no tomorrow, and of course some healty skateboarding.
Ivan Federico shockingly nailed 20 or so kickflip melons on the extension, as well as Daniele Terminator Galli landing perfection almost every time. Then we enjoyed watching Marcos the Brazilian with some crazy crowd pleasers, Basilico showing the youngsters he’s still got those moves, Stanco’s riding, the Roma connection’s skating (Milo, Nikolai and Peppe the Gipsy), local Andrea Jimmy Cantù gets best trick with a Pivot Fakie on the Burn fridge that screams danger!

First place Marcos Gabriel da Silveira, second Ivan Federico, third Daniele Galli. Jimmy makes 500 euros with the burn best trick and takes us all to a sushi restaurant! Way to go Jimmy!

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!

Very good news from this august! Two brand new Lazy Riders just arrived on this planet. I’m talking about Mattia Molnar‘s daughter and Marco Lambertucci‘s son.

Great job everybody and welcome to Giulia and Jonathan!

Skateboard Magazine #70 pubblished a double itw to Daniele Galli e Andreo Lopes.

Andreo and Danny are long time friends, they met through skateboarding and they shared a couplet of things like trips, contests, fliming sessions, tricks and bails.

To find out more about it, you can grab a copy of Skateboard Magazine #70, photographs and text by Bea Sugliani.

As usual the Street Survival, association that manages the Habitat Skatepark in Arezzo, has held a nice contest.

The park got completely renewed for the occasion with particular care for the street area.

The event was a best trick contest, dividing the competition in 3 rounds, corresponding with the 3 areas of the park. The jackpot of euros 1500 was supposed to be split on 3 best tricks with a price of 500 each. The level of the tricks put the judges in a tough spot, making them change their minds for 6 prizes instead.

Ale Cesario and Adam Walker win in the first area, Cristian Sirica Boccia and Federico Ghigo Borchi win in the second area.

The third area, the most aggressive one, sees Leonardo Tonioli and Marco Lambertucci as winners. Lambertucci seems to be on fire, basically winning a contest every other week. Keep up the good work Bauli!
