Vans Europe is excited to release In Buona Compagnia – the latest video from our European team.
Last summer, Tom the Cooler and the whole Vans Europe squad hit up Milan and the Swiss/Italian border to check out some of that Italian marble in between some lake swimming sessions.
Guided by Italian legends such as Gino and Jacopo Carozzi – in Gino’s own words – “the team had to get technical” to reinvent ways to skate the already famous spots that Milan has to offer. We’re not sure if it’s because of Chris’ mom’s delicious cooking throughout the trip or because of the pizza slices and Birra Moretti breaks but our riders really managed to get the bread factory going on out there.
What came out of this two-week long trip is this 12 minute edit beautifully animated by Mike O’Shea and edited as always by our Paul Labadie. Tom and the crew were definitely in good company for this one.
