Salt Lake City has always had a strong tech and creative spirit, and on August 30th that spirit came alive at the Sugar Space Arts Warehouse as Pimax brought its U.S. Roadshow to town. The event was hosted by VR creator Cameron Butterfield (CButters Tech), who guided attendees through hands-on demos of the Pimax Crystal Light and the highly anticipated Pimax Crystal Super.
A Community That Shows Up
Despite a summer weekend packed with other activities, VR fans showed up early and stayed late. Many attendees were trying Pimax headsets for the first time, while others came as long-time VR veterans curious to see how the Crystal series compares to their own setups.
The mood was buzzing—players swapped stories about Microsoft Flight Simulator, DCS World, and racing sims, while waiting their turn in the demo stations. For many, this was the first chance to see high-end PCVR connected directly via DisplayPort, a setup designed to showcase raw clarity and performance.
Crystal Super Leaves an Impression
Feedback from the night was overwhelmingly positive, with the Crystal Super leaving the strongest impression. One attendee summed it up perfectly:
“The text clarity was, for lack of a more professional term, unreal. On my HP Reverb I can’t comfortably read text smaller than 20pt. On the Super, I could read down to size 8 font at arm’s length. The sweet spot, binocular overlap, and field of view made the experience incredibly immersive.”
Looking Toward the Future of VR
Salt Lake City’s showcase was more than just a demo—it sparked conversations about where VR is headed. Attendees voiced excitement for larger fields of view, deeper binocular overlap, and even smoother display technology. For many, the Crystal Super already felt like a generational leap, and the thought of what Pimax is working on next only added to the excitement.
With Salt Lake City now in the books, the Pimax Roadshow continues across the U.S., bringing high-fidelity VR to more communities. Each stop is both a showcase and a conversation—a chance to see what’s possible now, and to imagine together what comes next.
For those ready to take their VR setup to the next level, the Crystal Super offers unmatched clarity and immersion. Use code CL2025 for a special discount when ordering today.
