Shred Junkies: UVU Mack Dawg Video Premiers

Friday the 26Th of September Utah Valley University premiered Down With People and Double Decade for about 3 to 4 hundred people. Jordan Mendenhall, Jeremy Jones, and Seth Hout came to show of the films and sign autographs. Also Burton, Analog, Nitro, Celtek Gloves, D.C. Snowboards, Skull Candy, and Smith Goggles, Oakley, Technine and Nomis had booths in the auditorium and were showing new product for the up coming season. They all had some sort of swag to give to the crowd.

Now to the videos. First to be played was Down With People. Let me say last year Were People Too was incredible one of my favorite movies and I was pleased to see the People Crew did not disappoint. The new additions of Curtis Ciszeck, Joe Sexton, and Simon Chamberlain all had killer parts stomping in the park and in the street. The People Crew had a good amount of street hits, but also had killer park and back country. Make sure to watch the credits interviews with Todd Richards, Jeremy Jones, and J.P. Walker. I am definitely going to buy this video, look for it in the next week or two at your local board shop soon.

Double Decade came on next the video started off with a 5 minute montage from all the videos and riders in Mack Dawg productions vault. It was nice to see this a history of the progression of snowboarding. With interview with the likes of Peter Line, Jamie Lynn, Bryan Iguchii, Nate Cole and more it was a perfect way to open the last Mack Dawg film. Once the parts started it was a non stop thrill ride. The new additions of the D.C. riders IIkka Backstrom, Devun Walsh and Lauri Hesikari really added well to the movie. Devun's part was killer his back country shots were insane. IIkas part was just as entertaining from his music to his riding definitely a must watch part. All in all the video was a perfect way to end a 20 year run at most would say the top of the Snowboard industries video production companies.

All in all a perfect way to spend a Friday evening. Thank you to Milosport, The Q network, Blindside, and all the other sponsors for putting on a great night. Fun was had by all.
