Jordan Sowunmi — May 15, 2011 — Lifestyle
Nike SB Italy has released the latest video in a miniseries that follows the skate crew’s current Texture Tour, showcasing rising skate talents Mauro Caruso, Marco Lambertucci, Donddeu Luca, Luca Crestani and Jerome James Campbell as they cruise their way through Sicily.
The skate vid is set to the stylish tunes of Florida’s Unouomedude and perfectly captures the beauty of Sicily while displaying the talent and fearlessness of the skaters. The end of the video features a massive double kickflip by Caruso, and then he shows his back to reveal the hard work and physical pain sometimes necessary to land a major video-ready trick.
The Nike SB Italy team and the Texture Tour trailer video was shot by Sergio Minnich with the help of Andrea Caputo.
