Heroin’s “Mutate or Die” Premiere Photos

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

Heroin’s “Mutate or Die” Premiere Photos 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
