Jake Phelps posted a rant about Frank Hirata and then today, a post entitled Phelps Fired. Apparently he has not been fired. This is interesting, and I can’t wait to see where it goes. Thrasher would not be the same without Phelps.

Duh…it’s bullshit.
Right Ki, that’s why the post says HOAX. So, no duh needed. It is still an interesting stunt and I’m sure there is a deeper story behind it.
Review me, Hirata’s part was pretty rad.
It’s so true how he built a bunch of shitty skateparks. Just look at Lancaster county park. That park’s shittyness is 100% his fault. I’m just bummed that we’re not gonna here about the other 4 banned for life people.
homie had some tricks! rolling thunder? he even had a part in a powell video before they totally blew it. ive met dude and he was real nice (and real short) anyway he got way more footy than phelper ever got. regardless i wanted to see jake rip on a couple more heads. to bad his list was all dudes that arent pro anymore so its not so big of a deal to be “banned” from some shit youre not trying do anymore. come to think of it maybe i was banned from thrasher too! WTF!? i coulda done without the “hate speech” but a PC jake phelps is no fun at all.
also they took down the other video with the list of the 5 people who’ve been banned. who were they? billy pepper, frank hirata, tony farmer? who else?
Benji Galoway. I am honestly dissappointed its fake. Would have really mixed things up. Or just been another exodus like when all the awesome left Transworld for The Mag.
phelps will be 47 in september.
Milli vanilli
the other one was choppy omega. phelps should get fired for that trife ollie.
Phuck Felps! He should get fired and they should enlist the other 47er that actually rips and who may be even more of a re/fucktard, BUD BAUM. Think of the possibilities. Every issue could have bud slamming on bigger shit than phelps would ever skate and be filled with stills from the thousands of punk shows bud has filmed (terribly) over the years. Sick. I’m so stoked bud baum is the new editor of Thrasher.
Bud Baum for President!
PUNK IS DEAD
I would love to here some Jaime Thomas stories from Jake…or just get his take. After hearing a tale from my friend the other night, I was ready to drive to SD just to piss on his car. No lie.
o0o00o0o hateness. I have a Thrasher from 99 with Jamie Thomas on the cover, plus an interview (shouldn’t the cover always have an interview?) They talk about JT thinking he was banned from Thrasher. I thought for sure Frankie Hill would be on that list, with him suing Powell and all that. Or how about this? You want a list of current pros to blackball? Go to skatewave’s website (I purposely don’t capitalize their name) and look at their list of pro riders. Anybody who rides for skatewave chooses to forfeit all of their skateboarding integrity forever.
Go Michael Phelps. Narcos Si!!!!
BUD BAUM yeah!!! BUD can even bowl higher than a 32
Hirata was actually hired to advise on the fixes made to the Lancaster park. So, it was not 100% his fault. The park was already screwed. I can’t say anything cause I have never gone. But then again I never went because of the parks rep.
