don’t understand how he did that

Rad photo, especially since the spot is going to be taken out, but that can't be a make right? It looks like he's going to land right in the middle of the bench. I know some people don't care if the actual photo is the make and I usually don't but that one seems a little obvious. Maybe he's hauling ass and cleared it, though.
-
Damn. That’s crazy.

I think the photographer was more focused on framing his body between the buildings than snapping it at the apex. It does come off as a little early. Still rad, and I don't doubt T-funk did a really fast ollie on a bank.
-
Once everybody gets over the fact that t funk looks like he probably has a slingshot in his back pocket and lights bags of dog shit on Mr Wilson’s front porch, people are going to realize he should be held in the same regard as other modern legends.

thats fucked

TFunk is one of my favorites of the last decade. I go back and rewatch his shared DC part with Dekeyzer every couple weeks.
Also does anyone have that video of him bombing the hill set to Send Me On My Way?
-
I can't believe what I'm seeing.
-
woah
-
Maybe he didn't clear it all the way, but landed most of the way there and surfed/carved out the remaining brick space?
It seems at least theoretically possible.
Based on his style and trick/spot selection, he is definitely capable of pulling off some "how did he do that shit?" type tricks.
-
thrashers covers have gotten so good. used to all be wide angle shots from bottom of stairs but these last few years have had a lot of really great covers.
-
I think it’s just the crazy wide angle making people think it’s a bail. There are 5 evenly spaced skate stoppers and he appears to be over the center one, which makes sense for the apex point.

I hate T-Funk, but that is in-fucking-credible

Nosebluntsliding an unwaxed bench is fucked.

That would be sick if he went into the bank and jammed it on top of the bench.

Tfunk renaissance begins today. I knew he was working. Hope hes not dating my ex in SF theyre Valencia buddies

this makes me even more confident that he didn't ollie the entire thing

if this is a make that’s insane

I can't convince my brain this is real before I see the footage. Thought there's only a handful of people that have even rolled over it.

Guessing Mach speed and floated like that a good ways. Awesome

Love this dude’s skating, safety hands n all. I was shocked when he hit that gap to wallride in Baker 4. This dude is a monster I bet it’s a make.
-
That would be sick if he went into the bank and jammed it on top of the bench.
only been there once like four years ago but i don't think that's possible from my memory. i believe there's a gap between the bench and the bank
also echoing what everyone else has said. his (supposed) trajectory makes it look impossible for both of those photos to be makes, so i'm excited to see the footage. predicting the t funk mid november soty run part
-
also it looks like the rail is cut out at the base of the bank at the beginning of the runup in the far right of the photo. would be sick if he ollied over the rail into the bank to get speed

Can you just admit it would be sick?

this is pretty much impossible
t funk rules
-
No way in hell they're putting a straight bail on the cover this day in age.
My guess is he landed and rode back down over some portion of the bench, not cleared it.

heart attack man

Super dope. I wonder if there will be a Pier 7 photo on the cover too in the near future.

Has anyone Ollied the length of one?

It's a sort of Wallie off the grey ledge at the top of the bank and he lands on the bench

Wearing Vans on the cover?

i recently saw a post on instagram of the spot,
(can’t remember who posted, had to be a photographer/filmer) but, a well known pro had commented saying “wow” or something to that extent about the photo of whoever it was skating china banks and, the person who posted said “can you believe that someone recently just fs ollied over the WHOLE long bench?!”. so now it seems like they were trying to have people notice that for when the photo dropped, guess we’ll know when we get the mag from the caption if the clip doesn’t drop first. might be in new gx video. also... gap between the bench and bank is literally like a ft from my memory, really don’t think rolling over is possible but.. maybe? almost more dangerous to risk with such speed and trajectory. either way this is completely gnarly.
edit : accidentally hit 2 instead of ‘a’ but yeah definitely a good gap in between and enough to seem impossible to roll over. maybe it isn’t a make by the photo or maybe it is, he could’ve just like gotten over it then double extended to make the distance. i’m sure the clip will be insane and reminds me of his gap to fs wallride in baker 4. i’m sure a photo of that clip wouldn’t look like a make either...

Photog’s insta says the whole thing.
Can’t wait to see this!

thank god we cleared that up
-
he cleared the whole thing.
-
Why were people questioning if he cleared the whole thing? You think Thrasher’s going to a run a cover of him just ollieng off the bank onto the bench or something? That wouldn’t even look good on video. And as someone said I think cover bails are long long gone. Ones that come to mind are Penny’s front blunt, and Mariano’s switch shove nosegrind. Those were in the mid nineties. Any others come to mind?
-
Holy shit that should not be possible. But yeah they certainly didn't put a bail on the cover of the 40th anniversary edition, those days are over.
Edit: Just stared at both photos for another five minutes and I just can't picture the trajectory. This is one of the hardest things ever done on a board.
-
Gonna have to wait till we see some footage this cover looks major sus
-
You gotta admit, that is quite the fuckin’ cover.
Iconic spot that everyone knows is going to die soon, covered in birdshit, skatestopped, with a skater piloting his board over the whole fucking thing, blue sky, classic red logo, no text.
-
No one should be here to theorize whether or not he made it or if he did something other than frontside ollie straight over. They wouldn’t have ran the photo as a cover unless he did it.
Having said that, I still can’t believe he did this what in the fuck
-

I know some people don't care if the actual photo is the make and I usually don't but that one seems a little obvious. Maybe he's hauling ass and cleared it, though.
That almost looks like it was taken with a fisheye lense so it could very much be a make in my opinion. You know: “objects may be closer than they appear“ type situation.
What an epic cover!

I sure hope the guy who filmed Masons cover didn’t film this!

Gnarly.. thrasher covers have been on a roll for the 40th. Some real classics
-
Y'all tripping if you think Thrasher's running a bail on the cover in the year of our lord 2021. When's the last time a mag did that? Nick Dompierre's BSNBS?
I'd wager he takes off and lands within the bench's space, carving in and out of it. No less gnarly for that.
-
I guess we can acknowledge that 2021 has been the sickest year for Thrasher covers…
-
Having a cover like this without the clip to back it would be the next Sheckler bs flip el toro debacle. I'm sure we'll see the footage in a DC or Baker part soon.

T funk backside flipped el toro

I kinda want him to drop a mind melter baker part and get Soty just to see someone get it without an official shoe sponsor.

When I first saw the cover I thought it was like the JJ's switch tre in Korea where the wide angle shot looked like he was doing it over a river, then a long lens shot or video surfaced and it was more like a small ditch.
But now that I see this. Fuck.
-
The footy of this is about to be mental.
Also anyone hypothesizing about what he did or didn't do that hasn't been to the spot should just sit the fuck down and wait like the rest of us to see what happened.

Alright, so that's insanely fucked up.

TFunk is a guilty pleasure for me, he seems like such an intolerable shit of a person but I love his skating and wouldn't change him for the world. I'd just stay away in person.
-
Can’t wait for the footy to come out so everyone saying he somehow landed on the bench shuts the fuck up. Dat boy cleared the bench. Long ways.

T-Funk does seem to have cat like reflexes and being well aware of that, but this is insanely high rolling. Not quite water tower level, but we're on our way up there.
This is a bridge...
-
Look, whether or how he cleared the whole bench is less interesting than the fact that T Funk is the rare case of someone whose little kid style was legit good and just got worse as he grew up.
-
What the fuck else we got to talk about round here besides whether he cleared the bench or not?
Who gives a fuck? No one is dissing him. We'll all be psyched to see the footage no matter what trick he did. He'll get props all around.
I'm still cynical based on the photo - the filmer looks like he's setup directly in the LZ. I hope he did though!

Have we discounted that he’s short enough to land on the bank early and go UNDER the bench?
-
He had to have cleared the whole thing by that caption but I don’t see how the hell you would get the speed for that just pushing. Seems like a weird spot for a motorcycle tow in, maybe he used one of those bunjee slingshot things.

was also my first impression - would fit to T Funks skating and would look funky on video.
But they would not hype up a bench bash like that.
He is doing the full bench - and this is... unbelievable - just check comments on Thrasher IG

the fronside ollie will be in his welcome to Vans video.
Since TNT & Geoff fade out they are in need for some guy with a loud mouth, Billy the kid Stunt attitude and Napoleon complex.
If you read the thrasher interview Gardner find also good word for T-Funk.
"I think the person who can be the most difficult is T-Funk. But not in a way that I don't enjoy being around him."
"He is a really good dude and maybe just a bit misunderstood"
On the question - if there is anybody in the team who is difficult to work with...
I like Tristans skating since he is the new baker kid. But I also like Geoff and Tony skating.
If you want to hang out with that guys - you need to have a hell of a pussy to suck all of that obnoxious energy out of them...

had the water towers in mind to - the bench ollie could become a classic cover like the towers.
The Towers are even more simple everybody also non skaters understand how deadly that spot is
- and nobody ever touch that spot again - which gave that spot a extra gnarly appearance.
May the most iconic cover ever.
But China banks is a different game. - this is one of the most iconic spot ever- since 40 years every Pro and kid visiting SF skate that spot - and frontside ollie at least to me is the first go trick on a steep bank spot. BUT NOBODY EVER
thought about going over the big bench. Most of the people (at least me) struggle doing a frontside carve over the short bench.

cant remember where i saw it pointed out(twitter maybe) but i've seen like a JFK investigation into Dane Burnam's cover not being the make.
-
you are pretty delusional if you think only a make can be printed, cover or not
Just ask any photographer, you just use the best photo ( and i don't feel like they picked the right one here)
It doesn't look like he cleared the bench (posture, position of the board feels like it's descending too soon, he seems too far from the end). i don't see any fisheye distortion or weird angle that could make this one a make.
I'd love to be wrong, that would give another perspective
The trick is legendary but it's not the correct photo imo

I have a hard time believing mike burnett okayed a cover for an ollie land into bank and bench. Are we talking that specific try from the photo? I don't think he made that one. But I do think he made one (ollie the whole bench).

hahaha that caption is amazing. i’d have butterflies in my stomach if someone described me like that
-
Now that i am stoned enough I think I can see it. the way he did it is shifty and it acutally makes sense with the way he does an ollie like that on transition. thats why it looks like he is on a weird trajectory but he is actually still on the way up basically or just at the peak. you have to imagine he is hauling ass that is why it probably seems hard to believe. hes basically just started his forward movement in the air at this point. the bank kind of sends you a certain way that you probably wouldnt expect but its deceptively steep so it kind of sucks you back in naturally

I terms of comparing this to the water tower ollie, I was thinking about how dangerous this is. Mark that I'm only stating, that we're on our way up there, and your point that no one else ever touched to water towers differs it from this one.
The danger I consider, is that he's going mach 10, riding up a steep ass bank to fly in the air. With the speed it will take to clear the bench, chances are that you would get a wobble going up the bank, aiming to get up flying in the air all ready. He could've fallen over the top of the bank trying this one. It's insane in my mind.

Considering all of you talking about how this might even be a make or not, if you look at Eli's carve, he get's down behind the bench a whole board length before it ends. Chances are that T-Funk does it in kind of the same way, and it might not have been done quite in the way you'd imagine.
I imagine him stretching his feet real far out before landing, carving down behind the bench. Maybe a slam where his calf gets caught on the corner of the bench catapulting him off sideways over the top of the bench.
I've never been to the spot actually. Isn't the bench positioned like a foot out from the bank? In that case, considering him landing on the bank and getting back on to the bench would be ridiculous..

someone already said earleir the photog commented that he did the entire bench no carve in early

OK now this makes sense, seeing how much room there is to land behind the bench without having to clear it. He doesn't have to clear the bench, just stay on the bank and carve out whatevers left. Still amazing considering that simply carving this was an Ender.

He probably ollie or dropped in from the top

I’m sorry but anyone doubting he cleared that is just stupid. Thrasher wouldn’t use this as the cover if it wasn’t a make, neither some weird ollie into the bench. They literally have it on the description saying that he cleared the whole thing. They also know people gonna wait for footy to prove it. I hope someone gets the 100 bucks.
-
I think it’s pretty safe to say he did a high speed carve over part of the bench, snapped a fs ollie and skurted around the end of it. That thing is no joke i really doubt anybody just aired the whole thing, i don’t even think that’s possible

Either way, all I see is a fake flip. Over the whole bench or not.

Which cover?
I think photos that aren't "the" make still get run. As long as the trick did get landed. Or sometimes there's multiple makes and maybe the best photo and best footage aren't from the same one

I don't understand these statements. If he rides up the bank, ollies over the bench then lands back in the bank then he ollied the bench. It doesn't matter if he carves into it or not.

He has to clear all of it or he slams into the bench. And possibly dies. Dude just hauled ass and ollied the long bench, that's all there is to it.

How cool is it that this cover is so good that people argue for four pages if it is a make or not?

I think it’s pretty safe to say he did a high speed carve over part of the bench, snapped a fs ollie and skurted around the end of it. That thing is no joke i really doubt anybody just aired the whole thing, i don’t even think that’s possible
He's definitely taking off from pretty deep in the bench, he might still be going up in the cover shot
I don't understand these statements. If he rides up the bank, ollies over the bench then lands back in the bank then he ollied the bench. It doesn't matter if he carves into it or not.
I don't think anyone is saying he didn't ollie the bench. I'm just trying to wrap my head around it, since he's at such an odd height for where he is in relation to the bench.

What's your call? Do you seriously believe he cleared that? It's clear he lands about a foot short.

Considering all of you talking about how this might even be a make or not, if you look at Eli's carve, he get's down behind the bench a whole board length before it ends. Chances are that T-Funk does it in kind of the same way, and it might not have been done quite in the way you'd imagine.
I imagine him stretching his feet real far out before landing, carving down behind the bench. Maybe a slam where his calf gets caught on the corner of the bench catapulting him off sideways over the top of the bench.
I've never been to the spot actually. Isn't the bench positioned like a foot out from the bank? In that case, considering him landing on the bank and getting back on to the bench would be ridiculous..
OK now this makes sense, seeing how much room there is to land behind the bench without having to clear it. He doesn't have to clear the bench, just stay on the bank and carve out whatevers left. Still amazing considering that simply carving this was an Ender.
i dont know - I think that would be even more wild - jumping in that super steep brick wall and adding a little carve for the last 3 feet???

Let's say they got 10 good photos of T-Funk, 9 of which were not makes and one was. Now let's say that photo 6 was the best looking photo. If he landed it and they got footage of it, why would they user the lesser quality photo #10 simply because it was the one taken during the make?
the way he did it is shifty
If the photo is a make then this. I feel like the very moment after the photo was captured, his back wheels sort of go a little higher in the air while his front trucks dip.
It's basically the only way he could possibly clear the whole thing if, again the cover photo was a make.
Also, as stated before, I can't fathom how the cover photo is a photo of the make. Not because of the angle, T-Funk's trajectory, or even the deceptiveness of the wide angle lens but because it looks like there's no way to get that photo at that angle while still giving T-Funk room to land.
Plus on the covers baby photo it looks like the photog is in the exact spot where T Funk would be landing.
However, I'm probably 100% wrong on all of this haha.

Absolutely mental, can't wait to see the footage

funny that people are categorically saying that he didn't clear when they know neither a) whether or not the photo is shot at the apex of his flight path, nor b) his velocity. these seem like the two most important variables for determining the distance of a parabolic trajectory.

based on the eli footage, the latest he could have popped is maybe here, about 1 3/4 - 2 full skatestoppers in. either way this is absolutely insane - having been there in person many times i wouldn't even have considered this possible.
that still photo of the bench straight on is accurate but is a little deceptive because it makes it look impossible to carve into - which it isn't. carving OUT of it though, out of a huge air like that is impossible and he had to have cleared it
-
Photos can be deceptive. Remember the Jake Johnson switch 360 flip photo over what looked to be a huge water gap? It turned out to be a lot smaller in footage. Obviously the China Banks wall is huge, but I'd say the same general principle applies.
I hate to say this, but there might be a chance that the cover isn't a make. Mags have run non-makes as covers before. For Thrasher to do this in 2021 is pretty unbelievable, but still possible.
Regardless, I'm choosing to believe that T-Funk did land this because it's just better to think positive.
If anyone can give an update, that'd be cool.
-
You really think we wouldn't have seen the footage if this actually happened - who holds on to footage like that for over 3 months in this day and age?

Sure photos can be deceptive, BUT if you’ve ever seen this spot you’ll quickly realize it’s every bit as gnarly as the photo shows. IMO there’s no way the mag would run a bail of a staple SF spot. Again if any of you have been here you realize exactly how crazy this is. He could sit on the footy for a decade as I doubt this will be done again. The benches have been there forever and we can count on one hand how many have stepped to the big bench.

Yes that was glorious! He fully landed in the bank and rode out with a lot of speed. It couldn‘t have been done any better.

Kinda surprised too see so little of the trick on IG aside from heckride. Maybe bc it’s only 11:30 here and most skaters aren’t up yet

Clip definitely does the photo justice, he floated that shit.
T shirt and board are different between the clip and photo, maybe shot on separate days?

For everyone who has never laid wheels on these banks the ease of how he did it is seriously so wild.
It’s not an easy or necessarily fun spot to skate, it’s a challenge and legendary place but if you choose to go there for most people it’s a few awkward carves and a halfhearted attempt at carving the short bench, then you go somewhere else. The line he did where he carved the big bench and tail slid over a short one is as crazy as this single trick.
