Promo Copy

Posted November 04, 2004

Viral - Sean Johnson, the guy who helped bring us such classic shred flicks as Whiskey and Video Gangs, has teamed up with PascalGallant, Ilari Suhonen, and some others to bring you Defective Films. Defective Films first release, Promo Copy, is a 16mmprogressive freestyle film starring: Iikka Backstrom, Eddie Wall, Joni Malmi, Lauri Heiskari, Simon Chamberlain, Andreas Wiig, Eero Niemela, Mikey Rencz, Alex Auchu, Travis Kennedy, Kurt Wastell, Chris Coulter and Chad Otterstrom.

Standout parts include: Eddie Wall doing a 60-foot, 270 step-up gap to rail and Joni Malmi's incredible street rails. (If you screw up on some of these rails you don't get hurt, you die.) Rookie Simon Chamberlain shows the smoothest jib style on the street and in the park; Iikka Backstrom is quickly gaining respect among the pros as the one with the style they wish they had. Chris Coulter has balls the size of watermelons; another rookie, Eero Niemella, can spin frontside 1080s without flapping his arms. "The Machine" Andreas Wiig proves why he's one of the most respected park riders in the world; 18-year-old Mikey Rencz pushes the limits of the Whistler Backcountry.

Bonus Features: trick tips and interviews, plus a "Pop-up Video" section.

Sponsors: Transworld Snowboarding, Forum Snowboards, Vans, Sapient, Jeenyus, Quicksilver, Smith, Burton, Rossignol, Agency, Stepchild.
