Professional skateboarder TJ Rogers has every reason to celebrate this month.
After beating cancer in 2022, he set a personal goal for himself: to one day have an interview with Thrasher magazine.
Three years later, he can proudly say he made it happen, and it just so happens to coincide with his birthday month.
Sharing his excitement on social media, TJ expressed his gratitude to everyone who helped make the interview come together.
He thanked Thrasher editor-in-chief Michael Burnett, the team at the mag, and all the photographers involved, acknowledging the effort and support that went into turning his goal into reality.
Beyond the interview, TJ also took a moment to appreciate the outpouring of birthday wishes he received from friends and followers.
He described this month as the best birthday month ever, feeling the love from all the messages and DMs he received.
This experience is about more than just an interview for TJ.
It represents personal growth, determination, and celebrating life after a major challenge. Achieving a goal he set for himself after such a difficult year makes this moment even more special.
This birthday month is legendary for TJ, not just cause he hit a big personal win, but because everyone in the crew and the community had his back the whole way.
