The group has been highly visible over the last few months thanks to their inclusion in this season’s TRON: Legacy movie. Via: Hypebeast.

Undoubtedly one of 2010’s most anticipated films, Disney’s TRON: Legacy finally hit cinemas earlier today. This video was created by Andrew Dorn from scenes captured at the premiere and is accompanied by music from Galapagoose. The event saw Will Hine, Harley Powell, Alexi Dowley and Jay Huggins skate up and down a small half pipe that was fitted with interactive lighting software, keeping in theme with the technologically advanced motion picture.

A further not-safe-for-work look is available for paying customers over at Playboy.
