Luca Tramontin

[4][5][6][7] In 2006, Tramontin became a regular guest on the Swiss National TV RSI lunch-time talk show Mezzogiorno in punto, which was anchored by Fabrizio Casati.

Since 2010 he collaborates with Australian radio broadcaster SBS[9] In 2011, Tramontin created and hosted a show called the Oval Bin.

[12] In 2017 he was again on telly with FUNalysis: as the name says, Scalia and Tramontin created, produced and anchored on Sportitalia a TV-Show about the unbelievable aspects of the most remote sports, enforcing the fun-factor.

Addressed also to a no-sport audience, the high rate program covered the humoristic and social aspect of "The Ashes" (cricket clash between Australia and England), the relevance of Gaelic Football in identity, music and folklore, the misconceptions about the weight lifting training and more.

Then coach Colin Price advised Luca to train twice a week with the local rugby league team in order to improve his deficitary ball handling.

In reflecting on his Australian visit, Tramontin said, "those awkward hours in the park opened up my mind forever" as he would later leave the Rugby Union to play the games he learned down under.

In the 1990 off season, after getting the 1st degree, he biked through Thailand and Malaysia for two and a half months, and returned late and underweight to the Casale summer camp.

[24][25] He also fulfilled his dream of playing ice hockey, albeit at a very low level; this was documented on his television show, Oval Bin.

[29] In 2011, Tramontin was asked to help the Hungarian national rugby team, the Magyar Bulls, who made its first appearance in international competition.

In 2014 Luca played and trained for all the pre-season with Rivera Vikings (Ticino local premiership) featuring also in some games as a defensive and forechecking winger.

[41] Since his move to Switzerland Tramontin co-operates with various ice hockey teams for crossover trainings, both amateur and professional like HC Lugano.

In a recent episode of "La Domenica Sportiva" Tramontin addressed the paucity of collision technique as one of the reason for the increase of concussions in the game.

According to his habit of getting physically involved in the sports he comments (for Eurosport in this case) he started playing with Ascaro Rovigo, the first Italian GAA club.

[citation needed] The allure of the events is very straight, more history focused in academic ambient, more colloquial and rich in episodes and humor in public houses.

In April 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, he made the cover of Sport di più Magazine, chosen as a strength and resilience icon.

He lived in Mestre, Venice until the age of 10; he often spent time with his maternal grandmother Elvira, who was a French-raised Hungarian, and grandfather Mario, whom he credits as "the biggest influence besides Rolling Stones".

[53] During the off seasons for rugby, he would play different sports, including swimming, street hockey, basketball, beach volleyball, tennis and badminton.

[58] At school, the Tramontin brothers had a reputation of being "very bad students" and "loud pranksters" who would "rather play rugby and hard rock", but "eventually blossomed at university".

There is a guinea pig in House of Cards but it is not very visible, and is owned by an antisocial hacker, in Sport Crime it will be seen in a totally different light".

[59] Admittedly a "no-cook" that only highly enjoys food in a healthy manner, Luca has been surprisingly called as a guest in the most known Swiss cook show, Piattoforte,[60] the logic of producer Aldina Crespi being to highlight the contrast between the cook, the food loving environment and the natural "punk" attitude of Tramontin.
