OK, THAT TEARS IT. I'm so stoked on Thrasher Magazine and what Mike Burnett is doing (and has done for years) for the website and more importantly, the mag. M*A*S*H*E*R and HOMIES are seriously my favorite edits Thrasher has had in years. Shout out to Chris Gregson and Rye Beres for filming all of these madmen as well as the dudes putting their bodies on the line. Nothing like getting the bible in the mail, like X-mas every month. Happy New Year to the REALEST skateboarding magazine left!

That’s crazy I went to Ohio for the first time in October and was staying in Aspen . Looked up if there was any skateparks near by and skated a good mile and a half to this skatepark by the university. Ended up seeing these guys and they were pretty cool. Dude with the longer hair was getting hella air in the bowls. Had no idea they would be on thrasher

[@InSenya.]

Oh so cool. From Russia with love. I hope once i get be here.

Okay so there's a video from 2 years ago where Peter Hewitt says It's a private giant water park.. type lazy river that skaters built and it's in Ohio IT'S 18 FEET DEEP in that one part THAT'S insane right there.... I live in Ohio and I can barely skate something 7-8 feet Let alone imagine how nuts this thing is MY GOD I'd love to just hang out there and watch people killing it.. guarantee would shit my pants.

Why was that last bowl/ lazy river so deep??

[@hi_is_this_clorox_bleach]

ask your mother

[@TomsGarage007]

Big walls = less chance of flying out with gradual vert walls, much like the plastic one skated in "High 'N' Dry" & likely to be restricted on who uses the ride, like weight & height restrictions designed for safety & obviously you shouldn't stand up in a rollercoaster so similarly, common sense rules apply.

My first thought was water park. But then I thought, "that bowl is way too deep," and the chance for drowning is too great. Either way, whoever built it is nuts. And props to these skaters and Gregson for getting in there.

[@SKムTモ]

Guys I love masher videos but the power metal just starts killing the vibe for me with the abundance of vocal parts and the dramatic aspect of it. I was growing up listening to the genre and share the love towards it but man I can't even hear wheels rolling or even grinding most of the time. I guess what I'm saying it's not neutral enough just like say Blood Wizard videos, it'll stay just as epic even if you put a simple rhythm guitar part under it or cut the music out completely

I can second this, nothing whatsoever is regulated...Which is what makes it mother fucking skatopia its truly an amazing place if you go there when its not busy. All the time in the world to just chill, camp and skate. One of my all time favorite places still growing up
