SFC Early Bird Rail Jam

Ok, so for those of you who did not know anything about it, this weekend the Colorado Christian University hosted the SFC rail jam. They had a sick down rail and a flat down rail set up and it felt SO GOOD to be back 0n the snow.
Team rider, Joey Dryer, took first place and we couldn't be more excited for him. He took home a whole new outerwear set up, some hats, and gift cards.

Check out the edit Higher State Productions put together

SNOW and Stept Productions' film, NetWork

One word.... SNOW!

I am hearing rumors that Arapahoe Basin will be opening the weekend of the 22nd. And then I have been hearing this Friday! I don't know if I quite believe that, but wishful thinking... What are your predictions?

Check out these pictures from Als Blog on A-Bays website.

NetWork is Thursday Oct 14
7:00pm in Math 100. $5

I cannot tell you how excited I am for this premier!

Last year Hathbanger got the entire lecture hall up on their feet dancing. I remember it was the first time I had ever heard Biggie mashed with Miley Cyrus... and I was a little confused and very surprised. It became one of the sickest party songs for the next few weeks, you couldn't go to a single party with out hearing it.

How We Livin' was my favorite film I saw last year, the one that best prepared me for the new season. It was also the first time I ever heard Sierra Leone... We all know about Sierra Leone. Such a banger song... the perfect one for Nick Martini's nearly 3 minute part.

And who didn't ride with that song on their playlist last season? Anyone?

Their riding ability is unmatched, the team is stacked with all of the best Boulder riders, our own peers. I bet you could snag some autographs Thursday if you want, as well as some sweet NetWork shirts.

NetWork NetWork NetWork! It is finally here, this Thursday!

What better time could NetWork premier? Snow has just started falling and everyone is holding their breath in anticipation for A-Basin to announce their opening day.

This year, Hathbanger, S'ur o vie and Berryhill will be DJing, and they are expected to get the entire place dancing again.

The Stept crew went to IF3 to receive Best Amateur Film of the year, Boulder's own, makin' it big time! Come to show your support and congratulate the crew.

Check out the trailer, get stoked, show up early! It will sell out!

It is the "biggest on campus party of the year" says Alex Martini.

I just want to make it clear... YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS IT!

See you all there!!!

CUST Double Feature
So, last Sunday Lani and I were doing the final touches to the CUST edit before it premiered on Monday, it definitely wasn't ready yet... but then I got a phone call from a new team member, Colton, saying they were going to hit his friends new dry land set up.

So of course, Lani and I grabbed her cameras, our boards, and boots, and cruised over. Let me tell you, that thing was well built, but sketchy... Carpet with construction fencing over it to make it slick.

o

The next night was the premier, featuring our team edit and Four Reel Media's 2010 movie, Dub Reel. We almost packed the house and everyone had a great time, not to mention it was Lani's birthday! Our media director.

The board all wore their new shirts, and we are really starting to bring the team together and tying up all the loose ends.

The event was also sponsored by Neuro Drinks, and everyone got a free drink as they walked in. Let me tell you... those drinks are delicious, each with their own function. I tried the Neuro Gasm (of course) which is supposed to stimulate blood flow and make you feel great.

I couldn't believe how many people showed up, and for all of you who couldn't make it, you really missed out.
It was definitely a party in Chem 140.

The Reunion

On Wednesday, Satellite Boardshop hosted the Reunion, one of the biggest annual premiers we have in Boulder. They are known for great films and an awesome product toss.

The Technine movie was amazing, with stereotypical sagging pants and tall tees, definitely a movie you need to check out if you didn't make it to the premier.

Our own team member, freshman Alexander, won MFM's full set up, and we couldn't have been more stoked for him!

Thursday, following the premier, was the start of the Reunion Sale. Featuring unrivaled steals and deals on last years equipment. The team got VIP entry, as every year, and got to check out all the gear before anyone else. I walked out with the tightest Special Blend jacket and didn't even burn a hole in my pocket. Stoked.

The sale lasted throught the 3rd and if you guys were dumb enough to miss it, don't worry, Satellite still has a few sale items left over. Cruise to the shop and check out their sale rack, there are some pretty sick hoodies, shirts, and jackets. You might be able to find something you want, if anything is left!

Sup Bro? and Cheers

Last night, Sierra, Colton, and I ventured down to the Gothic Theatre in Denver for the Sup Bro? and Cheers premier, hosted by 720 Boardshop.

The night started off with the 720 boys showing the SICKEST skateboard trailer I have seen in a while, I will see if I can get a link to put it up on the blog. Rich Schiffer and those guys are just such savages at skating. Then Echo showed their film, Echodemic, with team Alumni Seth Hill killing it.

Sup Bro?, featuring 45 of the tighest riders Colorado knows, also including Seth Hill. I swear, it had the most double corks I have ever seen in a movie! Definitely check it out, this Colorado film is definitelty one of the most epic ones I have ever seen and it is really cool to know some of the riders up on the big screen!

Then there was the biggest product toss I have seen of all the 2010 movie premiers. With product from Candygrind, Echo, Epic apparel, Yea.Nice, and more. Everyone got pretty aggressive and rowdy, it was great.

Stept Network is OCT 14!!!

I am seriously counting down the days until Stept premiers this years video Network. Last year, the Stept premier was the best one I attended.... and you would have to be an absolute idiot to miss it! Check out the facebook event page and make sure to get there early because it WILL SELL OUT!

It is only 5 dollars, in Math 100, mark your calendars, THIS IS SOMETHING YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS! Tell your friends, tell your siblings, tell your mom and dad. Can't wait!!!

Colorado, please let it snow today :)
love,
