Thrasher Magazine

As is tradition, we descended on Austin during SXSW for three days of shredding and music. The pit was lit, the ramp went ballistic, and we all raged in the name of Jake Phelps. Thank you to No-Comply skateshop and Vans for helping us keep the revs high in Texas every year.

The ultimate Rock, Rap and Radical roadshow returned to Austin, Texas for three days of Thrasher-style fun. Despite some sad news, the spirit of stoke prevailed.

No Comply skateshop in Austin, TX, recently teamed up with Vans and Daniel Johnston to release some kicks with DJ’s artwork on them. Don’t believe us? Click the darn link and see for yourself. We don’t lie.

Vans rolled out the red carpet to celebrate Elijah Berle’s hotly-anticipated signature shoe – we’re talking skate jams, party busses, baller-ass spreads and the hip-hop stylings of Soulja Boy. Burnout could barely keep up. Congrats, Eli!

'Tis the season when we honor those that had a HELL OF A YEAR. Here’s our hot list of SOTY Contenders for 2018. Who gets your vote?

The Halloween Hellbomb ended up being way bigger than we anticipated, too. See you at the next one. Wanna help plan it?

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.
