Thrasher Dec 2014

This December 2014 issue of Thrasher closes the year with a mix of chaos, humor, and global reach, running its usual gauntlet of offbeat departments alongside a stacked feature lineup. Sections like Lunatic Fringe, Five Greats, and On Board keep the tone loose but sharp, while Photo-G, Trash, and Firing Line deliver the magazine’s signature blend of absurdity and raw skate moments. There’s a celebratory undercurrent here, but it’s still grounded in the same unpredictable, anything-can-happen energy.

The features stretch across crews, tours, and personalities, from Hellride’s all-out assault to international coverage like LRG Cyprus and HUF Asia. Manny Santiago brings technical precision, while Enjoi injects humor and chaos, and Skrillex and Meltasia expand the cultural scope beyond skating. Anchored by Louie Barletta and Ben Raemers sharing the cover with chaotic style, and Wes Kremer’s heavy Clipper line in the contents, the issue captures a year-end snapshot of skating at full volume, equal parts reckless, global, and alive.
