BentFilms Press Release
By: Ben
Hello all.
First of all, thanks for your patience through these past few years of ups and downs in regards to the state of skiboarding. For those of you who don't know me, my name is Ben Wannamaker. I began the buisness of skiboard film making 4 years ago. Our first release in association with ESB productions "Sickness and Health: Biohazards" surpassed our excpectations, selling all over north america, the UK, and Japan. I personally put the company on hold for a year to focus on taking still photos and expanding my portfoilio. After that season it seemed to me that skiboarding needed a bit of assistance, so we put on a few events, 3 in Whistler, and 2 in Quebec. During which we began filming for our second film "WHITE DWARF"
Because skiboard events are at a minimum we decided to space the time frame for shooting over 2 years to get the best of the best footage, and so far, its been fantastic. Our locations so far are, Whistler, Blackcomb, Blue Mountain, P.A, Mt Tremblant Que. Mt St Bruno Que. Stoneham Que. and Calabougie On. Hand rails have been littered througout as well. We have gathered numerous hours of super progressive footage with new innovative grinds and jibs, up and comers and old favorites will be starring in this video. Neal Lyons, Adam Lynam, Andy Stewart, Bailey Mitchell, Kevin Boate, Alex Beaudaut and Ben Wannamaker.
Our scheduale this season is as follows:
January 11th-13th 2004 - ISF Event at Mt Snow Vermont
Last week of January - Japan, 3 stops, press, contests, Demos
Febuary 13th/17th - Mtn Creek New Jersey
Febuary 23rd/29th - Park City/The canyons Utah.
A trip to Quebec is also in order for the start of March.
