Skate legend turned trip-hop funk musician Tommy Guerrero never rests on his laurels. At 47, the “godfather of street skating” is still innovating, still pushing forward.
Huck hopped aboard the bus with Tommy to shoot this video as he headed out on his first ever European tour to promote new album No Mans Land. Watch as Tommy and his band, including the Beastie Boys’ live drummer Fredo Ortiz, cross Europe.
Huck are very proud to have supported Tommy’s tour as media partners, in collaboration with Levi’s Skateboarding.
