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!

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!
