Originally released on VHS in 1999, Hall of Meat is part of Thrasher Magazine's Skate Video Collection which consists of their first 18 videos.
Don't blink or you'll miss your favorite skater. That's the way Thrasher rolls - no parts, no interviews, no crap. It's pure skating from stop to finish. Grab a seat and let your adrenalin surge. Brimming with pools, pipes and punk rock it's completely mad.
As the title suggests you may be expecting a vid full of painful slams, breaks and bleeding contusions. You'll find some distressing footy of this sort sprinkled around, but it's all about the skating. As you know Thrasher rarely breaks vids down by rider parts - it's a conglomeration of skaters ripping. However, Dan Drehobl gets a long part (by Thrasher standards).
Where else can you find tons of riders without any excess crap. Thrasher is the answer and they'll pummel you with skate footy. Sit back, grab a brew and crank the volume. If you don't own Thrasher Magazine's Skate Video Collection, what the Hell are you doing with a VCR?!? Didn't know those things were still kicking around. Get a Tivo, you dope.
