Thrasher Magazine

The two-day tornado of rock, rap and radical known as the Thrasher Death Match whipped into the Big Apple recently with brain-scrambling maneuvers sharing space with hellacious pits – plus all the ferocity that names like Omar Hassan, The Gza, Kader Sylla, Gorilla Biscuits, Roman Pabich, Roc Marciano and Pedro Delfino conjure up. A Bill Thomas photo show offered a glimpse into NY skateboarding’s golden age and the whole thing was free! Where were you???

After a big night it’s time to either sweat out the poison or try to soak it up. Alltimers attempted both with a donut-fueled skate jam at Fat Kid the morning after the Death Match. Burnout prefers chocolate old fashioneds!

After a heavy few days in NYC, you’d expect Sunday morning to be fairly chill. However, the level of skating remained sky high at Fat Kid park in BK. Cheers to everyone who rolled out.

Keeping the premiere season going, KOTR alumni Foundation skateboards debuted their newest offering Souvenir to the public Thursday evening at the RVCA headquarters in Costa Mesa.

Watch all the prize-winning moves out of the infamous KOTR book. Triple-set grind to body varial beats handrail rock fakie?! Discuss among yourselves. 

KOTR is always full of surprises, but this shocker for Tyson at the finale warms the heart.

Ish Cepeda and Tyson Peterson crack open the October’18  issue and weigh in. These dudes are on one.

You met him on Am Scramble, now cheer him on to KOTR glory. Yüng Tyson can get down on a board, but will KOTR crush his righteous vibes?

Black just opened their doors a few weeks ago in LB and Indy broke the ice with the first video premiere in the heart of the Long Beach’s skate scene. The place was packed, drinks were flowing and Travesura played a great set after the video blew some minds. —Rhino
