Thrasher – King of The Road

Back for 2011 is what looks like the funnest competition in skateboarding, Thrasher‘s ‘King Of The Road’. I am pretty sure Thrasher invented skateboarding. Wikipedia can neither confirm nor deny this and it all happened before I was born so I’ll run with it as the truth. If you have never heard of it before four teams travel across America completing challenges both skate and non skate related until they eventually meet up and a winner is crowned.

It’s all filmed and put together in weekly installments and finally released in a video which you can get for free. Check out last years vid HERE. The four teams are the defending champs Nike, Lakai, Vans and Dekline. You can vote for who you want on the teams HERE. If you’re feeling patriotic don’t forget to vote for Chima Ferguson, Dustin Dollin, Shane O’Neill and Lewis Marnell. Check the team announcement video below its mildly amusing.
