This city is full of different kind of spots that I haven't ever skated before! Met already a lot of skaters, hopefully everyone is super friendly and also down to go skate even tough it' s cold. Cold like -2Cº aha

Damn. After two months of skating, yesterday I rolled my knee..  It doesn't look swollen in the photo, but it fucking hurts!!
I hope to be back on board in few weeks

Warm up at the skatepark!

My girlfriend filmed some tricks while I was skating at the skatepark!

Mauro Caruso Barcelona edit!

Hey guys what's up? I've just watched the original Giuliano's edit he made a few months ago, if you' ve already seen the other one, watch this one again because the music has been changed! Mauro went to Barcelona for 6 months almost two years ago, a few weeks after my injury! So hyped for this edit, I like the song! When I watched it for the first time I was in Milan for the weekend visiting Giuliano (he made the edit). I insisted that he put the video online ehe! Fresh updates: Now Mauro is in Copenaghen for a skate contest, hope he is having fun there!
Check it out!

Updates!

My knee is feeling better and better. Check this clip I filmed today. Totally random aha first manny pad sesh :)

Night session footage!

More footage about Sicily skaters! This morning I saw this night sesh video of my friends from Siracusa (40 minutes by car from Catania). So sick to see that all the east coast it's hyped to hang out skating and film some stuff for fun! My friend Stefano filmed mostly.
Siracusa and the towns nearby are full of spots, a lot of skaters came there during the years for tours and people always like the footage that comes out! If everyone is planning to come here hit me up! Sicily absolutely deserves.
Skaters: Stefano Barbagallo, Daniele Barbagallo, Walter Realy and my friend Luca Gozzo that he always rips!

Me and my homie Luca Gonz from Solarino aha

Hyped kids!

When I saw these kids for the first time I didn't really notice them. But over the past few months they have been coming to skate in Catania more often. If they don't know you they are a bit shy. Full support to these guys they deserve it.

Ah! Today I did my first kickflip ehe! I was trying it but I was kinda scared, then I asked to a kid to film it and I did it aha.
Little by little i'm working on it :) #ginoiscoming

First go skate day in Catania ripped it up

This was the first time in Catania but it won't be the last. Everyone enjoyed the day and there were more skaters than the past years in Palermo. All the kids that came to the event were from all the east coast of  Sicily and in the past they couldn't make it all the way to Palermo. The meeting point was the Gioeni skatepark at the end of Via Etnea,  the main street of Catania. There were some prizes thanks to Emerica and a local skateshop sponsoring the event.

In order to go to the next spots, we did some downhills because the skatepark is on a high point of the city. It was more fun than  Palermo because it is flat there . We did a best trick contest on a set of stairs, games of skate and other stuff!

We had a special guest: my friend Mauro came back to Sicily from Germany for a week. I filmed him hardflipping a gap, although Biagio snapped his board while trying the same trick. After Mauro gave his board to him, Biagio made it. Check it!

I enjoyed everything because finally I'm starting to do some simple tricks, is going to get better tough! I'll upload some clips when able to film! Stay tuned to my blog because the report is going to be online in the next days.

First ollies are looking sick, I'm looking forward to do more tricks!

Flo Mirtain Bon Voyage part!

I've just found this on internet. If you haven't seen it yet, watch it!
Happy go skate day everyone!

Pascal Reif for Titus Berlin

This is the videopart of my friend who came to Sicily twice to get photos and clips for Place Magazine. I met him and the other German skaters at the park by chance; they came here to look for someone that could show them the spots. That guy for the most part was me! When I saw them, I had only just noticed Alex Mizurov because I saw him in a lot of skate videos but he and the others were really cool to me and to all the guys at the skatepark. They were so hyped to skate in Catania. Pascal first came to Catania in 2011 and then again just two years later. Fortunately, I still keep in touch with Philipp Reinhard (The filmer that came in Sicily) and Pascal. When they told me that they were coming back, I booked a flight to Sicilia just to see them again! Absolutely worth it. I really had a good time with them;  I want to visit them in Germany for sure!
Pascal is one of the best guys I've met through skateboarding.
Watch his footage, he rips! Ya alter!

Pascal, Philipp,Me, my girlfriend and her friends!

Save Southbank

Yo, look who is here. The boss spent a day in Southbank skatespot, to support the site that skaters made, they are trying to save this spot with petition and stuff because the council want to shut it down to build some shops and stuff like that.
If you don't know, Southbank has been one of the most important skatespot in London (if not the sickest) and if you havent skated it yet, go skate there, skate scene is so sick, people are really friendly, best mood to skate with!

Mauro Caruso

Yesterday I told you that Mauro Caruso filmed some french skaters during their trip in Sicily. But if you don't know him you're asking "Who is Mauro?". Mauro is from Sicily too.
He skates since he was a little kid. For sure the most easygoing person I've ever met because he is very friendly and thinks only about skating skating and skating ahah
Always the first to skate a huge set of stairs and the first to have party around the city.
He went in Oregon (USA) to study for a year, and met in his classroom the best crew in Portland to go skating! In the last years he went there different times.. Now he is in Portland again for 3 months, working for a full lenght with his crew (Check Scope this too on youtube, super sick footage in that video!) Even though the videopart on top was filmed recently! Mauro is always hyped to produce and film nothing to do.. check all his footage! aha !This was what he filmed during his last trip to Oregon 2010

French skate crew in Sicily

This french crew came in Sicily last february. I haven't seen them because I was in Verona :(. My friend Mauro (the guy that filmed them) said that these guys are about 40 years old each, what to say! big up! I would like to skate till 40 or more! I hope so ehe. Tomorrow I'll write about this guy Mauro Caruso because he deserves ehe! he pushed the skate scene in Catania for years! Talk to you later.. Good night!

Efrem's sick boneless in the new Catania's square!

So..Yesterday I stole my brother's camera ( a Nikon D3100) to see how the clip would come out, and I saw that is on the same level of the Canon 550D, so it's good for skateboarding, a lot of clips are filmed with that camera.. This is a clip I filmed to Efrem yesterday..! I'm hyped to film with this camera, hope to film more in the next days! Stay tuneeeeed

Downhill sesh in Catania

Yesterday I did for the first time the "Calacatania" and it was very fun! Calacatania is a downhill that skaters do every thursday in Catania during the night. Skaters in this night usually go downhill in streets that wouldn't be possible to skate in the afternoon for the traffic. I saw they are starting to create a good scene about longboard and cruisers in Catania. Such a good time yesterday!Skateboarding is not only doing tricks, this is another way to have fun with good friends and chill! Check this footage too!!

Alex Migliorino is getting ready for Canada

Alex Migliorino (the guy that hosted me in UK 2 weeks) is the friend that everyone would like to have, it's always fun to go skate and hang out with him and he skates so good tranny stuff. He's going to move to Canada next month. I think there will be time to learn more tech stuff than gnarly tricks aha. Triple XL Hoodies and new era  are going to be real for him.
In the last month my  Alex worked in a restaurant almost everyday, so I didn't see him often. Today I was so happy that he was down to film something for update the blog! So here it's what we filmed today! At the moment I don't have a camera and I won't buy one soon, I want to save money first to move somewhere, I think i'll go maybe in England, don't know exactly the city, I'm quite confused.. :(

Video contest!

My friend Biagio Fiascaro Uploaded this clip for a video contest! He is sick as hell, always first about skating a sick gap or huge stairs! Put a like on this LINK and find his trick on that page!
Check this clip too!

My first UK experience!

Yo! Today I want to tell you about my first trip in UK! I went there the day after my 18th Birthday. After working hard during the summer, just to save money for that trip was the only reason. And I can say that I spent one of the best time of my life there! It was all about go skating all day meet people skate with everyone and together. My first travel by flight and first time outside Italy.. I have to say thanks to a friend of mine Alex that made possible everything, we slept in his room so I saved a lot of money..
It was weird that during those 2 weeks I changed 3 decks.. I skated so much! aha. really? If you haven't ever been outside your country, you should! you will get hyped for sure! Here is a clip of me filmed in 2 different days of taht trip. I didn't really mind about filming at the time.. skateboarding is fun!

Nyjah line at the skatepark

Hey guys how is going? Yesterday I went at the skatepark with Francesco Grasso (Nyjah) and filmed this clip! I haven't seen him skating for a while, so when I saw that flip bs 50-50 he learnt recently, I was hyped for sure! I would like to buy a camera and film with the good stuff, but at the moment, I can't, altough I'll upload daily clips with my shitty phone aha! Stay tuned and tell me what you think about!

Stefano Amadio clips!

 I met Stefano during my experience in Verona, I'haven't seen him for long when I was there I knew he sprained his ankle recently, but now I can see that is pushing! Yeah homie! I should come back to go skate with you and the IF crew!

New footage of the homies!

One month ago when I was in Catania for 2 weeks, I met Eugenio and Efrem (the skater on the video) at the ledge spot, And they told me about they wanted to film for a clip on the street spots of Catania with the new Eugenio's go pro, just for have fun and go skate like friends. Eugenio is  learning well  how edit the clips! I've really liked the way how he introduced the skaters! Yeah Eu! The lineof Francesco Grasso AKA Nyjah  by the 7 stairs no sense! Ya man!

Tommy Fynn is sick!

Hi guys I'm quite busy at the moment, I'm having some job interviews so I'm always out! Check this clip tough! Damn..Last tricks were super buttery fakie tre flips on double sets!

Back in Sicily!

Sorry if I haven't been writing in these days but I was out all day to meet all my relatives and parents! What to say.. Here I am! again, Sicily the land where oranges are super good and where sun always shines here!
Yesterday I went with Eugenio at the skatepark, check this clip!

IntoFREEDOM footage

 I met the guys of the Intofreedom crew and I can say they are pushing a lot the skate scene in Verona! That huge skatepark with the blue manual pads is their daily spot, and they're going to build other diy ramps! check their blog and see more footage about the guys!

Bye bye Verona

 Yes! I'm going back to Sicily tomorrow! So happy to see my family again, so sad that I'll leave Alexandra here :( I know that Mizurov is not no more on Osiris so to remember him I'll throw on a electric cable, this pair of shoes he gave me on his Sicily trip in the far 2010 ehe. Thanks man I appreciated that! Your board is still on my wall!

 

This afternoon, I was talking with a friend of mine about how he is living in London in the last months.. I' m getting so hyped to move my ass there as well, for 2 reason; because is a huge city where would be better to work instead of living in Sicily (just little harder to find a job here) and for the rad spots that you can skate everyday! I love see these videos filmed entirely at night in London! Hype!

DIY Backyard

 How sick is this backyard bowl? It's amazing what a crew of skateboarders can do. I think it's quite hard at the beginning, but when you start to create simple things like little banks, bumps and other stuff, you will learn.

Gravette

                                                                                    How rad is David Gravette? I love the way he skates tranny stuffs, I also want to learn how to skate on those bowls too! If you don't know who is this guy, watch also this part!                                                                                                                                                                

Catania night session #2

Hi guys how's going? It has been raining here for days, so bad. Today, we had lunch with the new Ale's flatmate, I love that girl is so funny, ehe. I showed her this video. This was the second clip we filmed after "Night sessions with the homies".. The video is quite longer than the first one, there were so many funny situations with the people that was wrong to don't put them on it :) In the middle of the video, there is a part where we skate in the city rail station. After few hours of skate session the cops came to kick us out. They  were friendly with us tough and they didn't fine us; instead they wanted to see us skate in the station! aha crazy. Also the local TV talked about that, hope the cops haven't lost their job for their goodness. The video was filmed in winter 2011 before my injury. Enjoy!

My Milan experience!

                                   
I'm so happy I went to Milan last weekend! Before going there, Some friends of mine told me that was a bad city, grey weather and boring,with not so many spot to skate. What to say, if you don't go you will never know! So when my girlfriend Alexandra told me if I would go there to see our friends, I was down!
I went in 2 different skateparks! The first one was the Lambro Bowl that is one of the oldest bowl in Milan.

 After I went to another skatepark that seemed sketchy but it was cool tough! The bowl was very deep, I've never skated something like that before! It was very hard to just push and get speed, ehe.

 In the night we went to a sick party called "TILT" with our friend Matteo. When we heard that an electro group "Belzebass" was coming for a live we were so stoked because Alexandra love them. If you like electro music listen this song (click the word "song" for the link) :D. When we got to the disco, everyone was painted with blood, and they painted us as well! aha crazy, here is the pic!

Me Alexandra and Matteo!

After this wild night  we came out from the pub at about 3, and when we knew that the next bus was at 6:00 AM I told to Alexandra and Matteo to sleep at the airport and then catch the bus, but we weren't alone..

That  guy broke the main entrance door to enter and sleep ahah! Don't know if he caught the bus with us.. Initially we were so scared when we saw him, but he slept for the whole night without snore ahah. The second day we went again to Lambro! I'm psyched about that bowl is so tranquil and it's also in the middle of the green, cool place and good people! After the sesh Matteo told me to go up the hill to see the Milan skyline and Alexandra took cool photos!

Me and Ale, I think one of the best photo that we ever had :)

It was an amazing weekend, I had a lot of fun, next time I'll be back and I want to skate again those skateparks! :)
