Shari White's "Keepsake" Toronto Premiere Photos
7/11/2023
Last weekend in Toronto, everyone was invited to the premiere of Shari White’s latest Vans vid Keepsake. It was hosted at Expo Vintage shop on the west side of the city and included a ripping ramp jam presented by Queer Skate Toronto. Swipe through to see the cast, crew and many other great soles.
Walking up, we get a first look at the crowd
Vans shoozie?! Check
Once inside, the ramp was already heating up with our friends from Queer Skate Toronto
The Smith grind, a ramp classic
Fay Ebert rips a back D
Sai prefers the back slash
Nothin' but love in the room
The crowd was into it
We always gotta get someone with pink hair in these blogs. Even better when they're ripping
Annie pinches the pivot
Free gear?! Fuck yeah, they got it!
Back outside we got a helluva scene gathering
And a big-ass Half Cab!
Cheers!
Nova Scotia's own Johnny Purcell made an appearance alongside Avery and Cephas from The Bunt
The newest Frog and Keepsake castmember Dustin Henry caught up with Big Sexy
Finally! We see Mikaela, our guest of honor Shari, Jake and Dylan
You thought that Half Cab was the only big shoe on the scene?! Seb makes it a pair
And the fans went wild for it
The full cast and their friend Anthony on site. Rapid fire: favorite host, go!
Those shoes were a hit
See?
It's just not the same without one
It's a hightop and like a child's size four, or maybe five?
I thought I was here for the party pics. Abby and Mikeala thought backup would be nice, though
Okay, maybe Mikeala didn't
More squads still rollin' in
Had to snap up the VIPs: fellow photographer Norma Ibarra and Vans rider Beatrice Domond
Slip-on? Nah, slip out!
Lemme try!
Risky off the rip. I'm gonna move on before I see the other shoe fall
Free hotdogs, too!
Top graphic like the Muska
Duke, Jesse and Landen can't wait for the vid to start
Alright, we're all here
Standing room only!
And the crowd is wowed by the glory of what I think is a pop shove tailgrab
UNA!
And the Credits roll
And the reception: two tongues out!
Conor, which way is home?
Of course, over there! Congrats again to Shari and all the Vans riders. Can't wait for you to see the product of all their hard work. If you're in NYC on Thursday, July 13th, there will be a premiere at the Vans Space 198. RSVP here. Thank you, and goodnight
