Thrashin'...

So, here's a nice little rip from an old Transworld Skateboarding magazine from, I'm guessing, 1986 due to the review of Thrashin' and the Chicago Blowout contest.
Thrashin' has to be one of the best skate movies of all time, it PWNs all over that Lords of Dogtown movie. In mai opinion it's the only teen sport du jour-love-drama that they [Hollywood] got right, it has just the right elements of Cheese and Reality with soem really dope tunes to accompany by soem really great band back when they were good. (i.e. Red Hot Chili Smokers)

The Chicago Blowout contest, I remember, happened when I was in 6th grade and we were all stoked on Chicago getting recognized for a national event for our ghea little activity. I even had a T-Shirt for it even though I never went, I got it at this bike shop called Sundance Cyclery in Bloomingdale, IL. because the contest was also part of VSW, so they had shirts for it.
Much like your [I'm] Grateful [he's] Dead 1977 tour shirt.

It's great to find these things that you tore out and hung on your wall as a grommet.

As of the end of this post I am currently listening to "Lollipop Man/Nightflyte" by "Union Jack/Somnambulist" from the mix CD "Psychotrance" released in 1994, mixed by Mr. C from the group The Shamen.
The reason that there are two tracks is because his mix is so fluid and he'll play tracks with each other forever, it's hard to place a track mark. So they just placed track marks every 4 minutes.
