chrome ball incident #480: rebel waltz













pretty stoked on this one.

gotta admit that I fancied myself a bit too fresh back in the day to really give the kid his proper credit. dude totally rips.

makes me want to go out and try a miller flip or something...

dig his art, too.

and that 50-50 flick of tobin's up top has gotta be one of the all-time greatest.

That 50-50 photo is a thing of beauty. Jason rips. And while on the subject of San Jose, any chance a Jerry post might be coming up in the near future?

Really good one. Everything has been done on that san jose rail and yet his 5-0 still looks awesome.
"look at the kid!"

I remember thinking Jason Adams was a kook when I saw that Thrasher cover. Those shoes were unacceptable back then. But, man, that issue was sick: interviews with Huf and Gabriel Rodriguez, a DC story and a profile of the Whooliganz, Scott Caan's rap group.

props to Jay Adams ... he's been sick for a long time and still has lots of fight left in him.

definitely an underrated skater (although he seems to have done well for himself).
