Thrasher Magazine

We all love a big premiere with our favorite names on the marquee and a packed theater full of cheering maniacs. We also love a bring-your-own-projector affair where all you need is a crew and a wall. Ish went with the latter on Beverly Hills Boulevard for his new Gas Giants vid. You already know we were fuckin’ with it

A little peace and quiet at Escuala in West Hollywood before the crowd arrives

Our guy was out front showing off the new gear

The Texas boys know how to tailgate

Punctual people, NAK and Kevin White both showed up at 7 PM sharp

One of the all-time switch skaters, Pete Eldridge came through

Taylor Kirby is not as much a switch guy, but still an all-time skater

Tanner, Allen and crew had to make it out for Ish

“So where’s the venue?”

You’re lookin’ at it. Ish teamed up with the projection company Wally to get Gas Giants showing over one of LA’s busiest streets

Deathwish boys Kaylanne and Foy

Smiles for miles, Dashawn snapped up next door at Burger She Wrote

Midler, always doing something loud

As if the crowd couldn’t get any more elite, we got Ishod too

CPH goes Hollywood

Kader at least ten feet from the entrance, or is 25?

This might be my favorite photo of the night. At this point the restaurant gave up and started serving food to the bed of the truck

"Let’s start this thing!"

Patrick Praman and Gabriel Fortunato talkin' spots

Dinner and a show

One of the cooler premiere setups I’ve seen

And Ish got enough footage at this premiere to make a whole other video

Carlisle Aikens, one of the smoothest in the game

Dre and Devin made the trek up from LB

Reese Salken and Christian Henry hug it out

Greyson Beal and Taylor Kirby congratulate the man of the hour on a job well done

Then came the fireworks

And Neckface wasn’t even there!

Grabbed one last photo and it was time to dip before the cops came
