New York City, New York 2022-2024. As someone who joined the community in 2020, Amber Rivera’s skating is progressing at a fast rate and it has been an eye opener to watch her fearlessly try new things and push her own boundaries. She is never picky about spots and will skate anything that is put in front of her…and she does it all with a huge smile. - butterTV.

New York City, New York - December, 2024. During the winter, in frigid temperatures, with limited day light, and a very short schedule to work with… We made it happen and what a pleasure it was to do so. A butterTV / Billy O’Neill edit has been a long time coming and it has taken place here in our hometown of New York City. Starring: Billy O’Neill. Shot & Edited: JP Primiano. Photography: Austin Paz & Jon Ortiz. MADE IN NYC.

Miami, Florida / New York City - After many delays and missed deadlines we finally release this very special piece on a very special day so be sure to wish Justin Brasco a Happy Birthday in the comments.
We’ve spent a short amount of time in Florida to avoid some cold days of a harsh winter then met up for a handful of sessions in our hometown of New York throughout the spring and summer. Some days were simple while others were chaotic and that’s how we love it—spontaneous and unpredictable plus some high blood pressure moments that skating in the city inevitably brings. Enjoy & cheers! - butterTV.

New York City | Puerto Rico | Arizona - Never pressured for a deadline, we began this project during the height of the pandemic and slowly gathered clips over a two year period whether it was meeting up for an hour to get a quick clip on a street lamp that fell down in the middle of a highway or booking a trip to another state to take it easy and get what we can when we felt like it.
Nothing short of good times with Austin Paz, the multiple people that tagged along with us through this piece, and the many slices of pizza that came with it. Cheers! - butterTV.

Had the chance to catch up with Billy O’Neill over some drinks while he visited home for EMoney’s
memorial event. And yea, we got a little skating in while we had the opportunity. Always a pleasure and always a good time. See you again soon. Cheers! - butterTV.
