No one does it like Nike. To commemorate the premiere of their wakeskate movie Aquafrolics, Nike 6.0 made a super limited Prom Pack to go with the 80’s prom theme of the Aquafrolics premiere after-party in Orlando this past weekend. Coming in a traditional flower box, the prom pack included limited edition Braata’s with piano key foxing, a tuxedo satin and leather upper and a custom footbed with the Aquafrolic premier date printed on it, a faux red rose boutonniere, and a Nike 6.0 tuxedo tee. Sound over the top? Wait til you see the party photos! More looks after the jump.
We brought you the trailer for Aquafrolics, Nike’s first foray into wakeskate film a couple weeks ago. Well tonight’s the big night. Orlando. 80’s Prom. And a rumor that the dude from Old School and The Hangover is playing, what?! If you’re in town you’ve got a precious few hours to get your tux on and get it crackin!
As we told you before with the release of the Todd Selby x Nike 6.0 Ben Horan shots, Nike 6.0 is going big into wakeskate. As a major jumping off, they will premiere their first-ever wakeskate movie, Aquafrolics, starring Horan, Nick Taylor, Matt Manzari, Andrew Pastura, James Balzer, and Silas Thurman in Orlando on Saturday, August 22 as part of the Surf Expo weekend. No longer wakeboarding’s little brother, wakeskate has evolved into a sublime artform owing way more to skateboarding than to wake any day. Won’t be in Orlando? Not to worry. Aquafrolics will be available in its entirety on the 6.0 site later this month. Stay tuned for more on this growing movement.
Today we have some more shots from the Nike 6.0 x Todd Selby project for Fall/Holiday apparel. This is Ben Horan, 6.0’s top wakeskate dog shot at his home in Nahunta, GA where Nike also just finished building a two-tiered pond with stairs and a rail for homie to shred in. It’s good to be on Nike! 6.0 will continue to go hard in wakeskate this summer with the release of their first ever wakeskate film, Aquafrolics. More on that real soon. More Selby shots after the jump.
