It's slowly coming back to me now, but people have been telling me all weekend that we threw one hell of an official launch party last Thursday, November 13th. Sound Academy rings as bell...so I think that's where I was.
Thanks to everyone who came out and enjoyed (lots) of drinks and food. The screening of Forum Snowboards Forum or Against 'Em was early enough that I know everyone loved it. One lucky party-goer took home a limited-edition Forum snowboard, signed by the entire pro team, and 100 people will be sporting the Push.ca t-shirts we gave away. DJs Sebastien Grainger and Lil' Jaz provided the unending soundtrack to the evening that put me in party-mode.
Special thanks to Andi Roth and the Sound Academy for a great job on the venue, Ian Nickson and Forum snowboards for the entertainment and the special giveaway.
Please enjoy these photos...they'll do a much better job of telling the story than I can. (Keep checking our snow photo gallery for even more photos from the night).
