Interview Thread

He said on insta that Thrasher had no involvement in making the game it was all down to Rockstar and Playstation. Wasn’t anything to do with EA they were Tony Hawk.

It was Thrasher skate and destroy for the PS1 iirc

You’d want more than that really wouldn’t you. I seem to recall his last visit to London was not particularly well received after all.

Sorry yeah Tony Hawk is Activision isn’t it. The Thrasher game was Rockstar.

Cheers re the game corrections - I am clueless about that world.

But yeah you get my point - Phelps era Thrasher cancellations were somewhat capricious shall we say?

Danny Gonzales talks about mic-e Reyes beating him up when he left dlx too.
I think he’s just a guy that didn’t really find his place in the industry and then his last ‘big’ section in Globe’s opinion had a lot of dumb tricks in it. Got injured after that so that was his legacy

I think the nail in the coffin was attempting a comeback via Jart.

He was cool as fuck on Stereo when he wore plaid shirts and stuff.

Actually I’m probably confusing him with Ethan Fowler or Matt Rodriguez. I remember an ad which I think was Danny but may not have been. :crazy_face:

Don’t remember him being on Stereo?!

Early in his career, when he moved to SF in 98ish.

Was it as late as 98? Even more convinced it wasn’t him I’m thinking of then :laughing:

Well he mentioned skating for them in his Wheels of Fortune in 411 26 which came out in January 98.
