BEHIND THE SCENES AT FLIP EXTREMELY SORRY PREMIERE!
9/22/2009
Anaheim, CA - 2000 hungry skateboard fans showed up at the world premiere of the highly anticipated film Extremely Sorry by Flip Skateboards. Being the third of the Sorry video trio, this movie was in the making for more than 4 years and featured Volcom riders Geoff Rowley, Mark Appleyard, Rune Glifberg, David Gonzalez, Shane Cross, Luan Oliveira, Louie Lopez and Willow.

Check out the behind the scenes footage here and after the premiere below:



To get in the spirit of things, Flip rented an old English red double-decker bus to get all the team riders, family and close friends over to the venue. We rolled with the Flip crew on the bus and consumed a few beers and slices of pizza on our way there. Upon arrival at The Grove of Anaheim, there was a massive line of people waiting to get in all the way around the building. With a bit of pushing and pulling, all the VIP guests and general admission ticket holders got inside the venue, the lights dimmed and the video was underway. The screen was massive, the sound system blew everyone's ears out and the energy in the place was cooking.



Without giving away too much, everyone was stoked to see all the gnarly skate and chill footage of Shane Cross. We miss you mate! The level of skating of all the riders was insane, you’ll have to check out the movie for yourself. Baron from the UK produced the entire soundtrack for this movie and it features several amazing musicians including Dave Lombardo from Slayer and Lemmy Kilmister from Motorhead.

After the movie was over, most people headed over to the bar at the venue for some amazing tasting alcoholic beverages. I’m stoked that we finally got to see Extremely Sorry. Check out some of photos from the night and and a video clip soon to follow. Congrats to everyone on the Flip squad for putting together an amazing video!
