The May 2025 issue of Thrasher Magazine is a celebration of Jamie Foy’s second Skater of the Year (SOTY) title, solidifying his place among the all-time greats. The cover shot captures Jamie in peak form, throwing down a frontside half-Cab to backside overcrooks on a massive yellow kinked rail, a trick that defies physics and demands respect. Dressed in a white hoodie, blue jeans, and a tan cap, Jamie makes this death-defying maneuver look effortless, proving once again why he’s one of the most dominant skaters in modern street skating.
The bold red “THRASHER” masthead looms in the background, standing out against the industrial gray backdrop. Jamie’s signature brute-force style and undeniable precision are on full display, from the locked-in grind to his effortless control mid-trick. The Thrasher "Skater of the Year" badge in black and red cements the moment—Jamie Foy has once again reached skateboarding’s highest honor.
Thrasher Magazine has been the core of skateboarding culture since 1981, founded by Kevin Thatcher, Eric Swenson, and Fausto Vitello. More than just a magazine, Thrasher has become a global symbol of raw, rebellious skateboarding—from its legendary Skater of the Year awards to iconic video series like "King of the Road" and "Firing Line." It has chronicled the evolution of street skating, transition destruction, and underground legends for over four decades.
This issue dives deep into SOTY legacy, featuring Leo Romero reflecting on his reign as Skater of the Year, while Miles Silvas passes the torch to the next generation. With exclusive interviews, unseen footage breakdowns, and photo features, this magazine is a must-have for skateboarding fans who appreciate the culture, history, and raw talent that fuels the sport.
Jamie Foy’s second SOTY title isn't just a personal achievement—it's a testament to his relentless drive, technical mastery, and ability to take the heaviest spots and make them his own. As always, Thrasher captures the essence of what makes skateboarding raw, real, and unstoppable.
