Shred Sled featured in “Deep End” music video by People R Ugly
Hey shredders and music lovers alike! We've got some electrifying news for you. The Shred Sled played an epic role in People R Ugly's latest music video for their song, "Deep End". Want to know how the stars aligned for this to happen? Strap in, because you're in for a wild ride.
The Call That Started It All
Randomly, I got a call from Tristan Kevitch, the drummer of People R Ugly. The dude was stoked about the idea of using our Shred Sled bus for a highway-roof-performance scene in their upcoming music video. Now, how could I say no to that?

A Little Snag and A Big Idea
But wait, there was a catch. Tristan wanted the bus for the very Saturday we had our own “Rock 'n Roll” event. A beachside battle-of-the-bands (with Rock Band the video game) kind of gig, you know? Rather than ditching one for the other, I pitched Tristan a killer idea: "Why not shoot your music video at our event? We'll have a crowd decked out in punk rock attire, amps cranked up to 11, and vibes higher than your highest ollie."

The Perfect Collision
The man was all ears, and the planets seemed to align. Fast forward to the event, and not only did we have a killer lineup of rock bands going toe to toe, but as the grand finale, PeopleAreUgly took the stage—uh, I mean the roof of the Shred Sled. They performed "Deep End" along with a few other bangers, and let me tell you, the crowd ate it up like free stickers at a demo.

Vibes and High Fives
It was a rad moment to see two local communities—skaters and pop-punk enthusiasts—collide in such a harmonious, face-melting way. The energy was electric, high fives were exchanged, and not a single person left without a smile.

Conclusion
Check out the music video if you haven't already; it's the kind of collaboration that makes you proud to be part of the Beyond the Board community we've got going on here.
Why is this story so cool? Because it showcases how open-mindedness and a bit of quick thinking can lead to awesome, community-building experiences. We're more than just a skate community; we're a lifestyle, a movement, and, when the stars align, a pretty kick-ass concert venue. 🤘
