BRIGANTE PROJECT

Almost two years ago we rode the Bruko 50 Free during our trip between Slovakia and Czech Republic . The board holded up extremely well and we could skate anything that we ran into: sidewalks, parks and hills. Back to Italy we spoke a lot with Bruko about the shape of the deck and finally they came up with a new symmetric, more functionnal model, the Wooland. we mesured it: L 96cm W 23cm WB (inner holes) 46 cm old school truck mounting We rode it on Independent 169, bones hardcore medium bushing, and Retro Freeride 86a / Orangatang Fat free 86a. an Earthwing Crewzer 38 and the Wooland 40 side to side The finishing and the handcrafted details are beautiful, the kicks rise gently and are less steep that the classic street decks. This allows a good pop with larger wheels. The wheel wells are deep and fit pretty good with the Indys, the concave is deep enough to lock the feet while sliding (also thanks to the sharp rails) but it's...

This summer many riders from Paris had some fun dh sessions in Dampleux, not so far from the french capital. The spot is fast and narrow, running through a wood, and a rider was closing the road at the end of the spot just the time of each run.

Here's an edit of the 14th july ... ... and a raw run of the same day You can also check some edits from the same spot on the Supaphonik channel

Longoarding made me meet nice people who are passioned for film and we shooted just for fun... now I want to thank them all! But while I was trying to edit the clip, something really interesting happened. I showed my project to my brother, who told me that a good sound was needed, and he maybe had an idea. That's how I met The Marphoi Project , who was able to match up the perfect sound in some days. The hardest part was to communicate via email and wait for new details, but finally everything was cool. I hope to collaborate again with him, and all the people that helped me in this project. Now let...
