Wow! I can't believe Thrasher (and Jake Phelps) made the front page of HN. I first met Jake Phelps at Tampa Pro in 2006 when I was in middle school. He was giving away free wheels and I thought he was just some random dude. Later I found out his position at Thrasher.
Thanks for upvoting this, fellow HNers. If you don't skateboard and you've thought about it, I recommend you try it out. Or if you "used to skate," get back on the board! I find software dev and skateboarding very similar. There's a certain resilience that comes from both endeavors, at least for me.
If you've got a little bit of time to burn, check out the Thrasher YouTube channel [0].
