Sick shot!

Anyone know if that board truly has a 14.5" WB? At 31.5: with a WB 14.5 inch that tail must be small...(it is a PS afterall); good twin graphic if were one.

More options for boards with wells are always welcome.

i don't know when the turning point was for trasher covers but they have been on a roll the last few years. another classic

I think it’s when they realized they didn’t need text on the cover. Advertising some AZ tour article isn’t making or breakinganyone’s decision to buy a copy

I clearly remember back then how impactful it was for my buddy and i when we saw reynolds’ backside flip thrasher cover for the first time
“Dude. Reynolds. Wallenberg. Backside flip. B&W. It only says thrasher. What the fuck! A la verga!”
We creamed so hard, as i’m sure many others did.


This is not my SOTY. I'm telling my kids there was no SOTY for 2021

Austyn said there’s a long story behind this shot/trick in his insta caption. Wonder if it has anything to do with berle’s tre, which I also forgot about. Hopefully no bad blood or anything.

Little odd how KB did that long backtail then Austyn did it switch… berle did the tre and Austyn did it switch…

I know Austyn left on vacation, then got the call from Papke the next day that he had a cover opportunity so he bailed on his vacation and jumped on the next flight back to LA to go for it.

Globe wanted a cover with Austyn wearing his new shoe, since his shoe drops next month.

Watch your mouth.  That would give us all the gift of having something to furiously type about.
When nothing in society deserves respect, we should fashion for ourselves in solitude new silent loyalties.

Heapschat.com was rad. Why'd they stop updating it? Anyone know if it's just hiatus or something (last Insta post is from 2018)?

As someone else said let’s hope he keeps 1 upping Berle. The talent gap is big and shit is hilarious.

You two should make plans to visit a supermarket and buy copious amounts of vegetables and sauces, since you both like to stir the pot so much.

Switch 360 flip a gap/hydrant that leads downhill.   Seems reasonable

I think Kyle's part was the obvious standout upon release, but in the passing years I found myself enjoying Elijah's part more and more, coming from someone that has never been that enthusiastic about his skating.

The surf rock song really compliments his approach and I'd argue its probably his best part.

I had his first deck after he came back to habitat and I think that was 8.25x32x14.5. The kicks on that deck were already a little stubby but I liked it a lot. It measured 14.5 spot on so I would assume the dimensions on this new one are correct.
