thrasher
On 5/22/2005 Nate wrote in from United States  (71.114.nnn.nnn)

I saw the thrasher thing too, but thrasher has been doing this kind of slagging thing for years, and truly they were like the original Big Brother before BBM. One of the original slag articles that comes to mind is 'Night of the Living Swamp Trogs'or something like that which sort of highlighted and poked fun at oldschoolers with wider boards at the same time. It made me laugh but made me want to go out and get a wide board again and ride pools and old concrete skateparks again. Thrasher started off with the hardcore ramp and pool image, then like cattle changed with the times and went to an all street skate format, but there is too much of an influx of different disciplines to really take Thrasher seriously. Because it "sells" thrahser is back on track with the pool and park stuff and are sell-outs imo but still flip through it at the local bookstore for s#@!s and giggles. When you get down to it, it's all about demographics and what the 25 and below crowd is buying into and always has been. Take it tounge and cheek and keep skating no matter the style!

American Freestyle Skateboard Team
On 5/21/2005 Bob Staton wrote in from United States  (68.111.nnn.nnn)

The American Freestyle Skateboard Team is a fund raising project to assist freestylers interested in attending the WC in Brazil October 1st and 2nd.

This is going to be a great event! It is in a wonderful location and has good media coverage. This is as close to the Olympics as freestyle is going to get ( except for a possible demo) in the next few decades so lets get behind the yearly WC and support the skaters from our country. The FLIPS crew from Brazil are working hard so lets back them up by getting as many skaters there as possible.

Each team member gets his/her own signiture t-shirt printed up with a photo and their signiture on it.

If someone could post the t-shirt images for me here that would be great , I will send them the jpgs.

It will require each team member selling about 100 shirts to raise the aprox. $1000. needed for the round trip air fare. Sponsors may have their Logo placed on the back of the team members shirt for the contest for a $100. contribution.

Team USA members so far are:

Joe Humeres - Seasoned Pro with a winning record.

Terry Synnott - Top ranking US and International Pro

Mike Heller - ( of punked Thrasher fame) Recent winner of the LA Metro Open Freestyle Jam and the WFSA Venice Old School Jam Freestyle contest.

Several other freestylers and high jumpers will be joining Team USA soon.

Please support Team USA -

The shirts sell for $15.00 each plus $4.00 s&h.

Send your US Postal Money order to:

Robert Staton
630 E. Victoria St. # C
Santa Barbara, CA 93103

Thank you for your much needed support.

Tony, don't let that ruin your session. They are trying to "appear" core by poking fun at something. Its freestylle this month, next month its something else. Ignore it and go out and ride! I find it funny that they are poking fun at freestyle when they have had various front covers with Freestyle riders on them...oh well....I'm heading out to skate.

New thrasher
On 5/11/2005 Tony wisneske wrote in from United States  (209.66.nnn.nnn)

I hate thrasher now. I read it just before my freestyle session and it ruined it. They say they want to support individual and original mindsets. They want to support all skating. Why would they make fun of something that helped them be where they are now? They see one person who still dresses like the 80's and assume that all freestylers still dress like that. They stereotype, they lie, and they, well, suck! I've lost all respect for thrasher.

Ben, I know Mike is sick I have skated with him at the Santa Barbara contest, I frestyle too, I was just pointing out how lame it is for that magazine to poke fun at freestyle, they've had many cover shots of freestyle in the past but I guess they feel the need to appear "core" by poking fun at something that is not the mainstream rail-stair-ledge thing.

Synopsis Video Premier
On 3/29/2005 Frank Lee wrote in from United States  (68.223.nnn.nnn)

All:

Daryl Grogan just called me, and he wanted to let everyone know that he will be appearing in a video called Synopsis.

The video premier will be held this evening at 8 PM in Long Beach, CA for those of you who live in the area, and can make it. The video will be shown outside on the corner of Long Beach Blvd. and Ocean Avenue (300 East Ocean Avenue).

I'll be sure to post more details about the video and the event once he sends me the flyer.

Thanks,

Frank Lee
