Veer Video Premiere Photos
Posted on Tuesday, July 10, 2018 by Chris
Seeing the turnout last weekend for the premiere of Trisan Mershon's new video "Veer" was inspiring, to say the least. If you want to know what Tampa / St. Pete skateboarding is, look no further. There were at least 100+ people packed into The Bricks event space, all there to cheer on the homies that got a clip. After the credits rolled, the champagne corks started popping and there were high fives and hugs all around. Just to add an extra level of rad, there was a photo show featuring images that documented most of the tricks and lifestyle behind the making of "Veer". You can see most of them below, as well as photos from the premiere.
Make sure you pick up a copy of the DVD, now available in-store and right here online.

Ok first, we'll start with the photos from the premiere. This first batch is courtesy of our Damn Am filmer, Frank Branca. This is one of the walls of prints for sale. All of these photos were shot around the filming of "Veer" by some pretty talented folks.
Tom McKessy is part of the FSEC (Former SPoT Employee Club) and spent a few hours helping to make sure these prints weren't crooked.
The lights go down and it's time to start the show. You could hear people cheering from the streets outside The Bricks.
This next batch of chill shots is from Lil Pink Camera, who literally takes a little pink camera around Ybor and gets some pretty great party shots. Give them a follow on Insta @lilpinkcamera. Here's Tristan, Derick, Josh Bowser and Julio clearly stoked on the video.
Tristan looks more interested in his drink than his own video. Maybe he's seen enough of it already.
Everyone was pretty stoked on the photo show. You can see all of the prints below, right after these party shots.
I don't know why Jabari is making the stanky doo-doo face, but this seems like the right photo to end out the night with. Let's just say these reactions are about right for how good "Veer" is. Make sure you pick up the DVD and find out for yourself.
Ok, so this last round of images is a collection of all the prints that were available for sale that night. These were taken by Josh Bowser, Rolo Carrillo, Matt Hudson, Chaz Miley and George Goldberg on and around the 2 years it took to film "Veer" Here's Wes Box's Hippy Jump...take a close look - his board isn't easy to spot.
