This Video Sucks’ tripod of homies: Joe Sexton, Simon Chamberlain, and JP Walker.

Last night (Thursday, September 17, 2009) ThirtyTwo invited the shred media up for a big This Video Sucks premiere party. They opened the doors to the Sole Technology company store at 5 PM and let everyone do a little shopping for new snow boots and brand spankin’ new ThirtyTwo outerwear.

After that it was a private skate Session with the ThirtyTwo team, followed by a taco fiesta, and an unlimited stream of PBR’s in the back lot, and an outdoor screening of Defective Films’ ThrityTwo/Step Child joint This Video Sucks featuring JP Walker, Simon Chamberlain, Joe Sexton, Markku Koski, Risto Ruokola, Fredu Sorvio, Stian Solberg, Eman Anderson, and Scotty Vine.

By 9:15 PM all the chairs were full and it was standing room only well over 200 people settled in for some shred film. This Video Sucks is a smooth little rail film with friendly banter/shit-talking between the players and a couple big backcountry hucks thrown in for good measure. Joe Sexton took the most grief for his below par sled and ugly helmet combo which made the audience erupt into laughter several times. But the video is more about friends working together to get the job done. When Sexton describes JP Walker, Simon Chamberlain, and himself as a “tripod of homies” he pretty well sums up the flow of the film.
