Ride “Tweak Show” Photos and Recap

IMG_6815

October, 30, 2009 Seattle, Washington – Halloween kicked off early in Fremont as Ride Snowboards brought down the freak show, ahem, i mean “Tweak Show” to evo for a night of terror! It was such a sick event, everyone dressed up and the films were incredible.  Lets see, we had Ride’s team film “Along for the Ride”, Pirate Productions and Videograss’s latest film.  Despite the incredible line up of films, people seemed to be preoccupied by the array of crazy costumes, the photobooth, games (Wheel of Death, Skull Toss, Membrain) and the Ride pro team was in the house signing autographs.  Mikey Leblanc, Hana Beaman, Jusso Lavisto, Darrell Mathes Austin Hironaka, Megan Ginter, Nash, Marco, Cory Noble and the whole ride crew were present and accounted for.

Here are a couple shots from the night but check out the full Flickr Photobooth Album and the full Flickr Album from the Party.
