Thrasher has been scanning entire yearly runs of their magazine and making them available on their website. I was looking through them last night, and found some interesting stuff.  (Click the images to get through to the issue, then click the pages to enlarge them).

the Skater's Edge: Get set up for Downhill by Bob Denike -- Thrasher September 1983

Behold! The radicalitude of Possum Kingdom. Who woulda thunk it. Outlaw race coming up down there. Thanks to Baked Boards for posting this up on the youtubes. Checking out that pavement, and the speeds these guys are getting, I’d say leathers might save you a little skin. Or a lot of skin.

Some killer new footage provided by Sector 9 on their youtube.com channel. These guys are flying!
