Heroin Skateboards celebrated their London premiere of Video Nasty this Saturday in an off-the-beaten-track room in Hackney that was full to the brim with those in the know. The anxiousness disappeared as soon as Rogie pushed the button on what was an inspiring 37 minutes of quirky Heroin video radness filled with new faces and a plethora of sick skating.
No spoilers will come from this report but for me personally, the Japanese chapter repping in this flick have pushed the goddamn boat out, but that’s not to take away from all involved in the overall fast-rolling speed of this production that has a bit of everything for everyone. From Manchester’s streets and Jim Craven’s sick filming, to Canada’s barrier kult wow’s, this has it all.
Our hangovers (on a 7 yesterday) have cleared now to reveal the remains of this drunken night out in East London. Unfortunately my camera blew up on the night leaving us with these awful shots. Fuck it though, this one was all about punk rock and doing it for the hell of it. Look out for Video Nasty coming to a skater owned shop near you soon. You damn well need it in your life.
