To experience the ecstasy, you gotta embrace the pain... and this French maniac can't be slowed down by a handful of heavy hits.

The Flip team visits Tom Penny in France in 1999, bringing along a young Bastien Salabanzi for the first time. This episode is just too epic.

Bob is straight up bonkers. The following six and a half minutes of raw vert destruction is gonna leave your jaw on the floor.

Fred had so much epic Lucas footage in the archives we made him make a 2nd episode. Cheers to 7 more minutes of raw footy from the French master. 

Lucas has been in the skateboard spotlight since he was a young buck, and French Fred was there to capture his ascendence from child prodigy to one of the best on the planet. This edit is awesome.

Cliché's Gypsy tours were based on a reality TV format and it doesn't get much more real then sleeping under bridges and showering in the rain.

10 Euros a day, a tent under the stars, and nothing to do but skate hard til you drop. It's no wonder that Cliché has stuck with the Gypsy Tour format all these years.

Pontus has always been a creative, spot-hunting madman as this edit shows. He quit Cliché before the completion of their Bon Appétit vid and these clips were lost to the ages until now.

The language barrier proves problematic as the Cliche crew try and maneuver around Japanese security. This episode includes some priceless young Puig footage. Bring back that sweater Lucas!
