Skateboarding
continues to
mutate daily. It has
also transformed
into a major fash
ion indicator for
those too blind
to get the joke.
As Thrasher
celebrates twelve
years with our
January issue,
expect a huge
explosion of
sequences,
how-to features,
profiles, mega
moves, video
capture just
installed) and girls,
girls, girls (some
who even skate).
Also stay tuned for
the long-awaited

FIFTY SKATERS It's our turn to salute the
unsung heroes who crank with fifty rulers from
across the tand. Look close, you might be in here.
"IT AIN'T RIGHT" Even in this day and age,
staying on still wins contests. Just ask Tommy-
Guerrero about SF Back to the City #4.
ON THE TIP Straight from the streets, tricks
courtesy of Tom Boyte, Erie Ricks, Chris Senn,
Rob Dyrdek, Kris Markovich and Travis Kolt.
CONTEST CORNER All across the country,
skaters are throwing down in competition. Reports
from Houston, TX, and Grover Beach, CA.
ZOUNDS MC Ren reports on the trappings of
fame. Pantera busts some chops. Arguably the
fastest band alive, Carcass rips your heart out.
