That’s right people we are having a big video premier of the latest film from Black Box Distribution: “Fallen: Ride the Sky.” Velocity as well as a Skatology, 3 Rideshop, Rascals, Wavedancer and Revival are hosting the event at the Senator Theater on August 31st at 6:00 PM. Entry into the event is only $6 dollars, which is less than what you would pay to see a feature film and lets face it you care more about skateboarding than some romantic comedy with your girlfriend or something.
For those of you that haven’t seen the trailer to the film feel free to creep onto the Fallen website and peep the epicness to get you excited for the premier, but I doubt any of you haven’t seen the trailer…
Now for those of you rejoining us because I am sure you went and re-watched the trailer anyway, be sure when you go to the event to let us know your here from Velocity, the proceeds are going to be split amongst the shops and while we know who most of you are we would like to at least try and get a head count. Also know that the more of you that come to the premier the more copies of the video we will get in the shop so best bring your peeps so you can get a copy for yourself when it’s released onto DVD.
Bare Essentials, the Riders: Jamie Thomas, Chris Cole, Billy Marks, Josh Harmony, Tommy Sandoval, Tony Cervantes, James Hardy, Matt Bennett, Brian Hansen, and Gilbert Crockett.
Should be interesting to find out who really gets last part, since word is that Tommy is gunning for it, I don’t think he has the heart to steal it from Cole, but he does do mad hammers, anyone interested in taking bets I am down haha.
See you all on the 31st best come out and rep for Velo.
Sorry about not getting this up sooner, and to be honest I think I just got a little confused on the actual time, the demo was originally going to be on a friday which would mean 9, but now that it’s a sunday I think we can have it at 6 since the park technically closes earlier on sunday at well 6. But there is a contest before the event. Either way word is 6:00 and thats what’s on the flier, if I hear otherwise I will post sorry for any confusion on my part.
Bowie Skatepark demo is coming to our door, while the dates were sort of sketchy we finally managed to get a date set this 10th. That doesn’t really leave much time for us to get the word out, but for those of you at the contest we will remind you there’s a demo in a week. The Demo is sponsored by DLXSF (ignore the fact that we’re not listed on there, we were added last minute) so that means we get a taste of a few companies at one time, among them is anti-hero, real, and krooked. The list of shredders is sick, so they’re sure to put on a good show, I don’t have the exact time of the demo so I will update you guys with that information when I get it. However based on the times of other demos I would say it’s save to assume the demo will be around 3-5 pm.
Among the riders coming to the Bowie Skatepark? Dennis Busenitz, Justin Brock, Nick Dompierre, Andrew Allen, Frank Gerwer, Bobby Worrest, and special guest Dylan Rieder. Word is that Justin Brock is out but there looking for a replacement. So yeah tell your friends and what not, let them know that there’s a skate demo going down May 10th at Bowie Skatepark.
Everyone that wants to enter the contest needs to fill out this waiver. We will have some in the shop but if you want to do it in advance please print and fill out.
Also note there will be waivers at the contest as well if you haven’t signed up by then.
