Thrasher Magazine

Tony Alva invented the frontside air, the skater attitude and maybe even the dirt ‘stache. It’s about time he got his own documentary! OC’s glitterati converged for the very special premier of The Tony Alva Story.

Twenty years under the bridge means a lot of bodies hitting the concrete. Washington Street’s birthday bash was everything you’d imagine, but cranked up a few notches. Did we mention Marcel Martinez is a lunatic?

To celebrate WSVT's birthday, the park got lit up and one of the heaviest sessions ever took place. Here’s to another 20 years.

Surely you’ve seen the article in the mag, but we thought the photos deserved to be viewed even larger, so a premiere party was set up at Volcom’s HQ in Costa Mesa with an accompanying photo show.

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.

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!

A rainy day Combi sesh was the perfect excuse to get the Madness team together. Weiss had everyone meet at The Corner bakery next to the park for a “team meeting” and you can guess where it went from there.

Vans hit Oahu, HI, for the Duct Tape Festival and the concrete waves were firing! Coping was crushed, loops were looped, DJ Juan Love (Cardiel) killed the tables (and skated!) and stoke levels were off the charts. Click play; get hyped!
