Thrasher Magazine (January 2026) serves up a heavy dose of the new year with a striking cover: Daan Van Der Linden rolling into a massive brick structure beneath a bold magenta THRASHER masthead. The photo is stark black-and-white, letting the scale of the brick waves dominate, with Daan’s shadow arcing across the wall and the logo popping like a curb-paint hit on a sunny SGV afternoon. Inside, Elissa Steamer sits down with Daan for a full interview—real talk, road grit, and the kind of perspective only a true lifer can pull. Greyson Fletcher detours from pools to bull riding, Creature × Monster raid the countryside on a Viking-themed mission, Gabbers checks in on a busted thumb and a newly fired-up crew, and Antonio Durao throws in hilarious “5 Greats” lists. For the history heads, The Butcher pens an ode to Madrid’s Welcome Skateshop turning twenty, and Skate Like a Girl marks 25 years with highs, scares, and milestones. It’s the kind of thick, throw-in-the-backpack issue you flip through between sessions—think curbs by Myrtle, flat-ground warmups in the Monrovia lot, or a cruise after burritos in Claremont—fuel for the next push.

Stix SGV has proudly served the San Gabriel Valley skateboarding community since the late ‘90s. With three locations across Los Angeles County, we’ve been deeply rooted in the local scene. Our Monrovia shop has been a staple since 1997, followed by our Claremont location in 2014, and our South Pasadena shop opening its doors in 2022. Our mission has always been simple: to uphold skateboarding culture and stay true to our community.
