The outro song is Ain’t Talkin’ Bout Love by Van Halen.

There were so many pages of ads in the old Transworlds. There was also a lot of content. Sometimes the ads were better than the content. It truly was the golden age of publishing.

If I recall, Louie was doing a switch backside kickflip over the trash can, which is kind of a difficult trick.

I like the Austin Kanfoush cover from July 2022. Emile's cover from March 2023 was good, too. Thrasher maybe needs to bring back some of the silliness from the late 1980s and early 1990s.

There's so much media churn, that even with one major mag left standing, covers become forgettable. I'll be browsing my stacks and see something I completely don't remember. Like Figgy's had six covers, but how many do you remember?

Slap in the mid 1990s had the best covers.

Doesn't the city know that skateboarding owes you nothing and you owe it everything?

When I saw Ducky’s cover I though he was paying tribute to Bam.
