Thrasher Magazine

From Tony Hawk to Tyshawn Jones, plus everyone between and beyond, here's the complete chronological list of everyone who's been honored with the only award that matters: Thrasher Magazine's Skater of the Year.

One award at the end of the year is never enough. For 2024 we got an extra-packed edition of T-Eddys goin' out for stolen valor, grandpa goals, beard of the year and so much more. Is your skin thick enough to make it through the lists? Find out. As seen in our March '25 issue.
