Out There: Gino Iannucci

[@HARDL3FT]

Happy to see Gino doing so well. At nearly 50 years old, seeing him so active and killing it, is special.

[@theramplocal]

Also I know this a year old but congrats to Gino on starting his family. Gino rules. Salute

[@sczarnecki5887]

A stone cold masterpiece. One of the very best skate docs I've ever seen.

[@stevengrmidolov2171]

Agree 100%

[@y2kfamous61]

So true

[@willysworldtv]

I love how skateboarding celebrates it's OG's just as much as the young bucks..

[@DRDOMINICO]

Only Gino could somehow inspire Ave to actually sit in front of a camera and talk 😂 sick vid

[@dadboard]

That was maybe the most I’ve seen of him speaking in as far back as I can remember.

[@doodforever]

one new thing i learned about Gino, my man has no issues pulling beautiful ladies.

[@soydave1988]

Timeless style, such an OG. Gino is one of the greatest to ever do it, no doubt

[@majtechtings]

I loved every minute of this. Glad to see one of my favs join the rad dad club and genuinely be happy where he is. You love to see it.

[@theramplocal]

Santino Lucero Ianucci soty 🙂Congrats to the Ianuccis!

[@majtechtings]

@@theramplocal couldn’t agree more.

[@100milesandrunnin]

Thank you for making this clip. I can truly relate to Gino. Sobriety is hard and you’re a lot clearer which is great but it can be a deep dark hole. He uses his times to do the activities that he likes outside of skating which I do too as well. When he say he’s “trying” everyday, he’s speaking for me to the core. Which I am too. So relatable. Thanks for talking, opening up and showing us die hard skateboard fans your current life and talked about some past that all of us didn’t know. Congratulation on becoming a father Gino, you’re going to do great. Create good new memories with your son and partner. Thank you Gino and thrasher. Life is beautiful. Keep on pushing.

[@galvanizedgnome]

Sobriety is easy. Yall abunch of heathens in a fallen state. Let go of hate and anger.

[@-regular-james-]

@@galvanizedgnome Lol. Anyone who says sobriety is "easy" probably doesn't have a problem and shouldn't talk. It's fuckin' worth it. . . but it's not easy. At least not at first.

[@gabrielteeter1047]

As a fellow alcoholic and junkie, God, who led me to AA, is the easiest softest way to maintain sobriety, for me that is. People have to find their own way in my mind, I was a dry drunk for awhile, that was never fun. I started working the steps with a sponsor and can honestly, honestly say, sobriety is cool. Much love and I wish this dude the best 🙏

[@ihatejulianlemmi]

Poor soul really does not realize how much he inspired others peoples lives

[@Martin52863]

When you don’t like yourself it’s difficult to understand how anyone else can like you. It looks like he’s turned a corner though. I’m very happy for him.

[@lofi_bonsai]

Always been one of my favorites

[@EL-dz9ys]

Poor soul? Are you kidding me? Forever milking his early career with endless softball interviews with vague mentions of tough times and dark moments, while basically delivering nothing of value to his chosen field or society at large. We get it, Gino, your best buddy passed away tragically when you were young and you struggled to make sense of things afterwards. Did you ever consider that getting a job or just applying yourself to skateboarding might help, instead of 'hiding in Florida' and getting wasted, or bumming around on a bike trying to fill your days? The best thing for this guy would be some tough love from the industry in the form of realistic expectations set about outputs in return for contracts. Instead he's kept on life support with cushy shoe and board deals without having to deliver anything in return. It's precisely this unconditional support that's killing him, and he can't seem to grasp it. Probably also why he can't get his shit together and stay sober. Sad!

[@Martin52863]

[@forthelovecollective]

We appreciate you Gino and congratulations on becoming a father. 🙏

[@ianthomas2866]

Wow. I'm only 22 and have not been through nearly as much as this guy right here, and I got emotional at the end seeing Gino in that setting. Still trying to make my way through college, work, and find time to skate for myself. I really resonated with the statement Gino made about idle time being the devils playground. I took a lot from this piece. Beautfiul work Thrasher!

[@hsy2455]

I attended USC from 1999-2002. I saw some of this in person and feel incredibly fortunate that I witnessed any of it.

[@blazedONEin87]

I was there at that time too, not attending school lol but smoking weed with James Craig and I managed to see Gino for like 5 minutes, one time! Lol

[@wingedeathnoisewave]

That happiness is going to grow SO HARD if you let it... I never expected, or wanted to be a father to be honest, and it was pretty surreal for the first year. My daughter is almost 11 now, and I've pretty much forgotten the hard work. it can be a struggle, and sobriety is hard for me,, but I have a skater's will. The reward of your child's security and happiness becomes so important, that you make it happen.. and the unconditional love and acceptance that you receive is beyond words. It only gets better. There's nothing more important. Things didn't exactly work out with my daughter's mother, but I am close with her family, so I'm very lucky. Congratulations on your son Gino 🥰 keep rollin' around. 🤘

[@hagebunshin]

Absolutely loved this video, and what he says about skateboarding becoming "robotic and unappealing", I've been skating daily for 21 years, and with a new era of web features taking over the last decade it has been important to become more integral on what you like and whats relevant. Skateboarding is raw Art.

[@biilybob1]

Very well said

[@stinkyboy69514]

thats why i can't get with nyjah

[@MrTravisCS]

As a fellow new dad and old skater, seeing Gino with a son made me so happy for him. Fatherhood is amazing.

[@DerAngriff]

Having your own child is a positive and life changing thing. Heh. I felt like a grom trying to get the pram working on the first day leaving the hospital. haha

[@agutie616]

This is the best Out There episode yet 🙏🏽 blessings to Gino and his family

[@RiverheadSkate]

Growing up on Long Island this is the name you would hear uttered at every skatepark and spot. People would say "yeah Gino came here once" and "he did this" or "he did that," oftentimes describing a simple trick on a bank or something but the way it was described you can tell it was awesome to witness.

[@marttiala-jaaski6876]

Gino is a huge inspiration on so many levels. GZA Publicity played in piano was a sweet touch too 👌

[@kensingtonwick]

It’s actually a track called “on the run” by kool g rap and dj polo. He skated to that track in 20 shot sequence video back in ‘93 or ‘94 I think. His part was so fuckin’ tight. His style flowed with that track perfectly. Watching his part got me so hyped to skate. When I heard it in this video my ears perked up lol. Watch his part in 20 shot sequence. It’ll get you hyped. Even if it is an almost 30 year old part😍

[@IAMJUDAH144]

Shout out to Gino, he is the man.

[@jamesdillamore9814]

That really struck a chord with me. There's a whole lot of realness in this film that comes across in a kind of beautifully hidden way. Great work.

[@paris2920]

my first ever skate trip to NYC i saw gino at LES at 7am, it was only 6 people there in total an i basically got a Gino demo. sat there on the bench an watched him skate fried out of my mind haha. so much elegance an style, about 6 mouths later i was at long branch skatepark in New Jersey an once again he pulls up and skates this time just me & him the only 2 in the park. i was so nervous i stayed on the other side of the park an just skated the bowl.

[@AC-wz9tx]

Amazing. Lucky guy 🙂

[@joelkelly1192]

Masterpiece of film. So good he seems so happy and happy to tell his story. Gino fans everywhere are real hyped right now

[@joeyrivera576]

Damn, alot of these dudes dont open up to the personal dark shit they deal with. The fact that he did, just made me love and respect him that much more. Always been and will be one of the best. Keep on pushing my G✊

[@NinoBone]

Watching him push in different backgrounds was great shots. Well done on this. I absolutely love front nose tricks because of him. Definitely got alot of influence from him

[@s_m_north]

Got me right in the feels watching that.

[@Steezo_Romero]

Felt like I wanted to give him a hug. I can relate like a mofo on dwelling on the past and getting stuck in that. His careers been beautiful to watch and his future looks so bright. We all make mistakes. It's how we learn and grow and be better people. Big ups to the style king!

[@Lbundy]

One of the only pros I’ve seen out in the wild skating. He gave me a smile and wave that gave me goose bumps. Such a legend.

[@asomareddy]

Had a morning session at Astoria park, where it was just me and him skating. Like 7am. Fucking amazing, like shooting the ball around with Jordan

[@mikeuptegrove]

Gino says a lot that resonates. I’m 8 years younger, got better clarity only a couple years back. I never had a life in skating like he did, but skating was my life as a kid, and after skating, I tried to figure it all out the way most do, without skating, and 22 years later, I’m skating again, and in a sense that gives me clarity. I relate to his love to f sports and, “partying”, but gave up the latter so I could enjoy the former more readily. I don’t jump rope, but have various athletic interests. Hopefully he’s counting his blessing now as a father. Maybe if it wasn’t too late for him, it won’t be for me. It’s a weird experience being a man after a childhood of skateboarding.

[@hostsofmichael]

I love all the background music being little classical versions of classic hiphop beats , some of which he skated to. nice touch

[@jeremylamovsky3669]

The story AVE told about Gino in the beginning sums up one of the best things about skateboarding. It can be legitimately beautiful to watch, and it's perfect for shooting photos and filming. I'm sure the way he skips rope also looks dope just because it's Gino. I boxed when I was younger and I can't say enough how damn tiring it can be. Should have started doing it again when I was good enough to do it. I was trying to let my ankle finally heal enough to skate but unfortunately the boredom led to drugs, eventually to about a decade of being seriously strung out. Finally clean on a MAT program and counseling so I can get back on the board when the weather breaks. always keep a decent complete people. Never know...

[@chasone]

Glad to hear he's sorta happy. Really, it was all about those last 3 minutes.

[@noahbrugghe764]

I met Gino in New York last month, most humble guy!

[@stevezissou8925]

Kids middle name is Lucero! Gino’s one of the best to ever step on a board.

Yea that hit me as very important as far as showing the nature of his character… Gino is the man

saw him at the skatepark this morning…I wanted to fan out so hard but I also didn’t want interrupt his sesh. Still smooth af

I grew up in LA in the 90s. Gino was ALWAYS the man! I’m 43, working on cleaning up my act. Skating again. This was so good to see.❤

[@Ccfatfat8427]

Perfectly documented. Nothing but respect for Gino, you ask anyone who grew up skating in the 90’s who their favorite skater is, Gino is definitely on that list.

[@pjh5337]

I met Gino back in 08 or 09 when I would help film Bodega skateboards. I remember we got to skate a pool with him and Guy. It was such a nice day and Gino was the kindest person. He remembered my name and made me feel welcomed as a young 18 year old filmer.

This was sooo good ! Gino is a true original. Didn't know he was in the same crew and very close to Hufnagel and Keenan Milton even though I grew up idolizing them all and it's great to see it and acknowledge all these different types of skateboarders all so gifted and unique. Waylon, you did an amazing job !

Having a son might help you Gino in many ways. One of them is that you won't have the time to think and worry about yourself :D. Now your son is the most important thing, he is the one to care about. We as fathers suddenly disappear LOL XD (the rest won't foucus on us anymore), which is a totally new and different life, and can be a blessing :).

Wow...Hey gino I just wanna thank you for putting this out and being so transparent. I'm a 40 year old skater from upstate NY Albany. Skateboarding has always been everything to me. Over the last 5 years my addiction has become more important than everything. Seeing this piece ...man...it may have just saved my life. This reminded me to start loving life again. All the things I used to love to do besides skate. So yeah man... thank you for being so transparent. This shit reminded me that life is worth living

[@KeithStealth]

I live in astoria queens..I always see Gino at the astoria skatepark in the AM sessions usually when it’s spring or summer..I’m in my 30s I’ve been skating for over 15yrs I’m an introvert so I don’t talk to Gino when I see him he doesn’t really talk much to ppl..I give him the causal head nod when I see him there & keep it pushing…maybe next time I see him there I’ll try to speak to him.. I can just feel his energy I can tell he doesn’t want to be bothered he just wants to skate..so I respect that
