Congratulations are in order!The venerable rag Thrasher Magazine awarded Chris Cole the coveted THRASHER Magazine Sk8r of the Year! Typical SF cold rain did not damper the spirits of 600 or more revelers and the gracious host, the one and only THRASHER Magazine! Wahoo fish tacos , A mini ramp and liquid lubrication by Pabst warmed the crowd. VSA crew represented Venice well and Homies CRS111, BMFS,Goto, Mofo BFox, Nickles,,Cab,Hawk,Lance,Trujillo,Gutter,Jack Curtin and others were lurking about the hulking warehouse as well. As the event was held in a 90 year old military warehouse, the acoustics unfortunately were unintelligible, as JPhelps mced the videos. Phelps lived up to his cantankerous reputation as SFPD interceded in an on stage altercation between Phelps and G.Rowly. With order restored, Chris appeared elated as he received $2000.00 and a nice trophy. Thanks, THRASHER!
