Friday May 21, 2004 was the video premiere of Volcom's Chichagof skate video.
This place was off the hook! I have never been here when it was open to the public which I should have known would equal mass chaos. I usually come when its a closed premiere or something like that. I have no clue how many people where here, but there where enough to have multiple beer stands, actually one beer stand and one red bull and vodka stand:-), a Fish Taco stand, a boat with the one man band guy playing on it, a few motorhomes and a lake for you to play with your remote control boat in.
The dagger crew just got finished building the new Volcom Skatepark and I have been lagging on getting over there to skate it. I saw the Jinx roaming around the party and he said anytime so thats pretty cool. Anyway I showed up at about 8 and the place was already a zoo. I walked past all the lurkers and one of the bouncers handing out wristbands though he new me so I got in. Then I located Kevin at the Skatepark and he hooked me up with a wristband to enter there. Tight security was all around for sure. The more people flowed in the harder it was to handle everybody but I only saw a few people get hauled out of there so all in all it went off without a hitch.
I got in and located Austen Seaholm and watched him kill the mini bowl, I also saw Volcom team riders Ryan Sheckler, Caswell Berry and Mark Appleyard skating around. As much as I enjoy street skating and mini ramp skating I was drawn to the big bowl in the back. Pool dogs Benji Galloway and Dave Ruel where there as well as the vert dogs like Omar Hassan, Chris Gentry and Brian Patch. I would have to say for me best trick of the night was Omar Hassan with a heelflip from the hip way into the flat, followed by Chris Gentry with a heelflip bodyjar 2 days after his 30th birthday.
I watched the premiere of the video with a thousand other drunks and I would have to say the best parts go to Ryan Sheckler for ripping and Runa Glifberg for starting off his part by renting out a blimp and going looking for pools. Many have videoed pool scouting via airplane but I cant say I ve ever seen it done in a blimp! Good job Remy for adding in that nice touch! The rest of the night was a blur but I do remember Costa Mesa PD out in full force as the party winded down. Good job Volcom you guys know how to through a party!!
