Throwbacks: Orchid Footwear – “Footwork”

It’s hard to believe that six years have passed since the release of Orchid Footwear’s final full-length DVD, “Footwork”. The video was originally released and premiered on April 9th, 2011 and was later released online in it’s entirety in February of 2012. The DVD was filmed around Eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey by Ryan Navazio with editing by Derek Adams and visual effects provided by Josh Clancy. The video features riding from Brian Hunt, Wiz, Brian Histand, Dave Krone, Micky Marshall, Dan Conway, Randy Brown, Van Homan, Niki Croft, and friends.
