Thrasher released a book that runs down the 200+ places you need to skate at before you die, or before your knees give out. Or before you have kids and move to Long Island. In honor of proving that we have actually stepped inside of a bookstore in the past fifty years, I wrote up a brief review of it, explaining how Thrasher’s publishing department broke my heart with their laziness.

*I use the word “read” lightly here. I am aware that the majority of skateboarders have not made it past the fourth grade and are generally incapable of reading, so I would never dream of writing about a book that had a whole bunch of small squiggly lines and words and shit in it.

Skateboarding has been around for a little while now, its about time that they put out some writing that accommodates our ability to read something longer than a photo caption.
I agree. Along those lines, you might enjoy my site:

Corrected. That whole “college” thing is just for my image, I never made it past long division myself.
