    Jamie Foy Thrasher Cover December 2024
    Handrail heavyweight Jamie Foy delivers a knockout punch to the final cover of 2024—16 down, six up and the grind of a lifetime. We caught up with the former SOTY to talk handrails, contests, and terrain. We got interviews with Brandon Westgate and Chris Russell. Full Death Match coverage, and last but certainly not least, YETI took the gang on a wild adventure to the Oregon Coast. Heavy issue, don’t miss it!
