Thrasher Magazine

We all saw the SOTY article in the April issue of the mag, but it goes without saying that a heavy video must follow. Long Beach got a sneak peak Tuesday night to see what Jamie and the boys were able to handle while Down Under, accompanied by a photo show from Burnett and free beers to juice up the crowd. Keep your eyeballs peeled for the video hitting the site soon. You don’t want to miss this one! —Alex Papke

Party favors always get the crowd stoked

 

Joey Ragali and Ethan Loy—guess whose scar is whose!

The Worble Crew made their way out, but most wouldn’t recognize Man Ramp without the hardhat

 

Leo popped his head in just in time to see the video and give a quick hello to Cody

 

“You seem warm, bud”

 

Time to get things going already

 

Gotta get enough to last the whole video

 

Anticipation was high as the crowd set in

 

A good speech really gets the stoke high

 

 

The verdict is in: these boys handled business Down Under! 

 

Hugs all around 

 

Everyone was in arms after watching it

 

With these dudes behind it, how couldn’t you be stoked?

 

Once the crowd found out the prints were up for grabs it was full mayhem. 

 

Dilo was stoked to take home his piece of the pie. 

 

As was Mason

 

Goes without saying that Torey had to get his

 

One hell of a Smith grind 

 

Who was more stoked, Brownie on the print or Tyson on his spliff?

“One handed isn’t gonna work…”

 

“Here, someone hold my laptop”

 

Last but not least
