Butter Effect

So, checked out the premier last night, it was awesome, definatly a must see.

They gave out a ton of free stuff, had a nice little raffle, and of course the pros were on hand for signatures/laughs - they we're all pretty wasted, it was great.

I did learn on thing though, my camera doesn't like dark or movement... damn point and shoots

Afew of the "better" ones:

Hopefully someone here has some better shots, I saw afew camera guys running around, they gotta be somewhere... I saw one guy drop a canon d10?... one of the really nice ones, straight onto the concrete, he looked pretty pissed, I felt bad for him.

Laugh Damon, so how was the video? i really wanted to go but i couldn't make it.

It was awesome... but it definatly adds something when the bass is so loud its shaking the brick wall you're leaning against... haha, but ya its a super good video, definatly a must see this year.

Its awesome they've got some local lakes in there (i think I saw samish, and another lake out on the peninsula) and a local rider (Brent Starr)

And I knew someone would have some good shots! - http://www.northwestriders.com/Butter%20Photos.html

laughdamon, the pro finder guide is a little bit off. the guy id'ed as andrew adkinson is actually bret van den heuvel. Wink

andrew had on a tie and jacket. i posted a bunch of pics over at that other wakeboarding site, maybe i will repost them here tomorrow. mine came out pretty good. i was standing about 2 ft from the stage with parks when he was offstage, so i got a good angle. i have a group pro shot with most guys in it.

Okay, LaughDamon, here they are...

courtesy of WW hosting, fyi, i don't have my asu webspace to host them on.

Crowd gets ready for the raffle and givaways

Keith Lyman and Sean Kilgus give away some stuff. Yes, Lyman has a weird vest on.

Parks and Sean Kilgus, director of The Butter Effect. Parks talked and smelled like he looks. I had a nice conversation with the boy.

Shane and unidentified male give away stuff onstage. Shane also had "fun" in the limo prior to arriving, rendering some interesting statements onstage.

The Van den Heuvel Brothers, Matt and Bret. They'll be touring the country this summer in a custom painted H2 and Baja boat doing a promotional tour. They also do wakeboarding lessons in the PNW.

That's it for now, more tomorrow.
