This review is from: Thrasher: Insane Terrain (Thrasher Magazine) (Paperback)
A must have book for your living room coffee table collection.
I do not like how Jay Adams was thrown out there in this book,and the controversy over Dusto and the pipe Salba got busted in is bogus BS,but aside from that,this book is WELL worth the $20 bucks for a crisp,clean and new copy. If you are a skater for life,you must own this. Purchase this,and if you don't have the spending gitas,get your girlfriend or mom to buy it! AWESOME BOOK!!!

I hope the 25 year anniversary book is better, the cover of it looks promising enough with Jay Adams and the classic Skate & Destroy motto I live by across the front, but this one is b o r i n g.
