Thunder Trucks Instagram Contest (Photos)

Social media is undeniable. Tweets and Facebook posts run the game in touching base with the youth based market. Lately Instagram is just as relevant. Even more so now that it's not just for IPhones anymore. Thunder Trucks is taking full advantage of this and holding a contest where participants post up photos of them re-creating tricks from Thunder Pro Jamie Thomas's Battle Commander (Video Segment ran on the popular Berricks website). They aren't being sticklers for specifics. For example the wallride (see image below) doesn’t have to be down a ten stair or whatever, as long as it is a wallride, it counts. - Jason Chapman The Global Skateboarding Network.com

"Send any questions you have my way and good luck! Be sure to tag #jamiethomasknows and @Thundertrucks in your post." - Brad Handel DLX Distribution

"Congrats to Charmcity Skatepark rider Tyler Thomas for his win in the JamieThomasKnows Contest with a stylee trey flip at the Lake Fairfax Park in Virginia!" - Jason Chapman Charmcity Skatepark owner
