If it was a make does anyone know if Tfunk is getting on a new shoe sponsor and they’re saving the clip for a welcome part? Maybe Vans?

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.

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.

You are an accomplished gentleman and a scholar, and I defer to your judgment.

I have no doubt he did it, but I'd be curious to see how you'd even bail trying that at first.

I'm arriving at this thread a bit late... but does he have to make it over the whole thing? I mean it'd be fucking gnarly to land in the transition and then roll on to the bench. Dustin Dollin style pretty much.

You guys would’ve hated living in the VHS/DVD era. Waiting years was normal. Sometimes you never saw footage…
I thought it wasnt just him solo, shouldve stuck with my og thought.

Not that it matters but it looks like he could just be landing flat and doing a huge air out over the bench off the bank. I’m stoked to see it regardless.

Hahaha that’s what I was thinking.   Geoff Rowleys part in Sorry in particularly was like 6 yrs worth of hammers that he had no video to put in (and you don’t put the shit he was doing in a 411)

I'm still not 100% convinced the Mike Daher tailslide Japan is legit.

In case y'all missed it, Baker's dropping a split T Funk/Tyson video on 4/20.
