Heroin’s “Mutate or Die” Premiere Photos
3/19/2026
After three years in the making, Heroin skateboards’ new video Mutate or Die hit the big screen at Brain Dead Studios in LA. The turnout was great, and the crowd stretched almost as wide as Heroin’s beefiest boards. Come for the vid, stay for the surprise. —Taylor Ballard
These might be the best dressed early birds we’ve ever seen. Paul Kirts, Terry Kraus, Mark Foster, Ira Ingram and Swampy Bog Hog all looking fly
Nolan Houghton and Jenna Sims looking like a million bucks
Two of my favorite blokes, Jordan Thackeray and Egg Man himself
Macey Lemus and Jenna Sims get fired up
Steve Hernandez is ready to mutate
Jay and Buddy pulled up!
Who would’ve known the Heroin crew cleans up so nicely
The crowd grows as the sun sets
Curbs hate to see this guy coming
Think they coordinate fits before the show? Twins Mike Sinclair and Vern Laird made it out
Kasso winner Hayate and company came out all the way from Japan
Kingswell in the house! Rony Inc, Patrick Melcher and Nick Hanson
Love was in the air thanks to SLC’s Hanna and Britton
Speaking of young love, Zach Allen and Sasha made it just in time
Time to mosey on in for the main event
First in, two of Baker Boys’ finest, Pedro Delfino and Taylor Kirby
We got Vincent Alvarez in the house!
Terry Kraus and his wife Carlee, no mini ramps are safe around this guy!
Hayate, staying hydrated. Little does he know he’s about to get the surprise of a lifetime
Paul and Goofy, all dressed up and showin’ love to Zane’s spirit
What you know about the 1-8? Cody Chapman, Buddy Nichols, Raney Beres and friends know all about it
The Brothers Kovaks and Jenna Scout wouldn’t miss it!
Some Nolan fans throwing their hands up. Got a feeling there are going to be a lot more of them after seeing this part
Swampy was over my bullshit
But he promptly fell asleep so had to snap another one
Ever seen a duck in a swamp?
Don’t worry, my friend, just a few more minutes
Quick speech from boss Fos
Packed crowd!
After the video, Fos hopped back on stage and started speaking some Japanese to Hayate …
What could possibly be on those boards to get that kind of reaction?!
YEP! HE’S PRO!!!
Big love from the whole crew!
Kyle Leeper and Mike Manzoori were pretty stoked too
Oh, shit, Shawn Hale’s here!
Wholesome Facetime call back home to Japan
Took all night but managed to finally get the whole crew together with the board. Some suits were lost in the process …
And that's a wrap! Congrats to Hayate, Fos, the whole Heroin team and everyone who rolls with their wide rides. You’re gonna love this one
