Vans “Unfiltered” – Simone Barraco and Anthony Perrin In Paris

May 19, 2022

It has been a while since Vans have released one of their Unfiltered videos (about 4 years if we remember right), but they’re back with a fresh one from the lens of Rich Forne for your viewing pleasure! This time around Simone Barraco and Anthony Perrin explore the massive city of Paris, France to find spots to go to work on. You already know when you put these two riders together in a city like Paris with a filmer like Rich, you’re going to have a MUST SEE. Get on that play button and take it all in!

“The Vans Unfiltered series continues! This time around Simone Barraco and Anthony Perrin visited the city of love – Paris. Unfiltered dives deep into the heart of the city via the lens of Rich Forne. So deep you can almost smell the fresh croissants and feel the vibrations of the subway system below. It’s a feast for the senses.Combining Simone and Anthony is a match made in heaven and the clips they managed to film are of the grade-A street riding masterclass variety.” – DIG

“An ecologically minded experiment to make Paris a cycling capital of Europe has led to 1.5 million cyclists chaotically speeding through the streets with no regard for human life. Blowing through red lights in both directions, deliveroo riders fixating to their cell phone navigation and tinder breaks, Electric scooters careening across lanes and countless pedestrians and dogs jumping the streets in suicidal protest against the cycle mania. We escaped the gold plated boulevards for the moodier less predictable Parisian suburbs.

Our ghetto version of the tour de France. The miles were necessary to find the hidden gems.” – Rich Forne

Shadow Conspiracy X Subrosa – Spainful

May 12, 2022

Last month some of The Shadow Conspiracy and Subrosa team took a trip to Madrid, Spain to cruise the endless spots around the city! Despite the weather not being great and injuries getting the best of them, they managed to stack a bunch of great clips for this video. Check out what went down!

““Let’s go to Spain in April – the weather will be fine!” Unfortunately Spain had other ideas for our DIG X Subrosa X Shadow trip but that didn’t stop the crew from bagging some incredible clips (and not so incredible injuries).

Jiri Blabol, Simone Barraco, Miguel Smajli, Mo Nussbaumer, and TM Ryan Sher were joined by young Spanish talent and recent team addition Saúl Vilar for a week in Madrid. It wasn’t just the bad weather we had to battle either – throughout the week the capital’s spots ate up and spat out Simone, Jiri and Ryan. Shout out to Ryan who ended up breaking his elbow on a wild gap to wallride – hopefully he’ll be back in action soon.

It wasn’t easy, but the crew got there in the end. Sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labour.

“Shadow and Subrosa present Simone Barraco in “10%.”

Simone celebrates 10 years with an all new video in the only place he would want it to be filmed in, Barcelona. A weird year meant not much travel and forced to explore his own city more. This video proves how Simo continues to push originality year after year with the style of riding and the overall look.

VANS “MASH” – STREET

April 23, 2021

Vans have released Part 2 of their “MASH” videos! Last week we got a look at the VANS “MASH” – TRANSITION video, now today we get the Street section that features the Vans Europe street guys absolutely CRUSHING IT. This is over 6 minutes of hammers that you won’t want to miss. Hit that play button and enjoy!

“Today we’ve got the second of the sick two part MASH mixtape series for you courtesy of the VANS squad! Since all their team projects had to be cancelled due to covid, their riders wanted to be active and do their part as soon as they were allowed to go out and be safe again. But with very limited travel options, they all kept it local in their region (or wherever was allowed) and asked their homies to press on that red button. Rich Forne then took the footage and created two heavy mixtape MASH videos.

You’ve seen the Transition heads do their thing, now it’s time to watch what Kilian Roth, Bruno Hoffmann, Courage Adams, Anthony Perrin, Simone Barraco, Alex Donnachie and Kevin Kalkoff got up to. This goes hard as hell!” – DIG
