On February 17th and 18th Monster brought a couple hundred of our  best friends to the top of Grouse Mountain to check out some great  music and watch some events live on the big screen. Kid Sister came  out all the way from Chicago to throw down a live performance that  nobody there will soon forget. Even jaded industry types were on  their feet dancing to the breakout MC.

Djs over the two days included some of North America’s best including  Sammy Bananas from New York, Fashen from LA, Dave Nada, Neoteric, DJ  Spider, Thee Mike B, and for the fortunate few who saw it in the cabin, Mat the Aliens legendary video mix set.

Whistler’s Partysnake Again? Premiere Recap

Posted by: Paul Rak |

Whistler, B.C., Canada
January 14th, 2010
 
When you combine both Whistler’s snowboard scene with Vancouver’s notorious Partysnake crew and put them into a great venue like Buffalo Bills Bar, you are bound to have a ground shaking experience.

 

Partysnake Again? is the second of two Vancouver based films that showcase the antics and shredding of some of Mount Seymour’s liveliest contributors. The Partysnakes’ presence is unmistakably legendary. When you walk into a party featuring the Snakes you will notice there is no party like it; fasten your seatbelts. Buffalo Bills Bar had no problem filling their establishment with wall-to-wall partiers. With outstanding DJing from the Eh Teams DJs, featuring DJ ILLO and HEDSPIN, the night was rocking all night long.

 

Partysnake has definitely made an impression on the Whistler scene; but even more so now, it has become one of the most talked about movies of the year. One has to wonder if perhaps the Partysnake himself, and his venomous bite, has something to do with it.

Standard Films' "Black Winter" and Partysnake's "Again" movies rock downtown Vancouver in the rain

Posted by: Libby Everest |

Vancouver, B.C., Canada (Dec. 17, 2009)

 

The Rickshaw Theatre was the perfect  location for a Standard Films' "Black Winter" screening and the notorious Partysnake's "Again" premier.

 

People started lining up in the rain almost an hour before the doors opened and soon filled the sidewalk. The Rickshaw was packed with a who's who of Vancouver's snowboard scene and they were treated to a screening of "Black Winter" that had them screaming for more. Nobody captures snowboarding like the guys from Standard Films.

 

After a product toss stoked out the crowd the infamous Partysnake slithered its way onstage and "Again?" was unleashed on the loyal crowd of snake lovers. "Again?" is the latest in a long tradition of partyshred movies from Canada and is the unloved orphan of Whiskey and Wildcat parents. After all was said and done we had packed 550 people in the theatre.

Summer End Skate Jam Recap

Posted by: Paul Rak |

Summer End Skate Jam
The Plaza Skatepark
Vancouver, B.C., Canada
September 12, 2009 For the 2nd summer in a row, Underworld Skate Shop teamed up with Monster Energy to present one of Vancouver’s only skateboard contest series of the summer. 

 

The Summer End Skate Jam was the final event of the series and the none pressure jam format was enjoyed by all. The skaters moved from obstacle to obstacle throwing down their sickest tricks, and as best tricks were landed they were rewarded with cold hard cash. 

 

With DJ Kutcorners playing great tunes, the Monster Energy Mobile Ambassador Team (M.A.T.) sampling to the thirsty skaters and the sun shinning, the day couldn’t get better. After the event, skaters and friends carried on to Shine Nightclub. There they celebrated their winnings in fine form as they partied to the late hours in the Monster Energy VIP area.
