We visit Billy Marks at home before he heads out on the 'King of the Road' competition.King of the Road is an institution in skateboarding. Started by Thrasher magazine in 2003, it's a demented, roving adventure that follows various skate teams across the country as they compete to accomplish a list of tasks, some of which carry great risk of bodily harm, and others that don't involve skateboarding at all (but still might carry great risk of bodily harm).VICELAND has teamed up with Thrasher for the latest season, which will feature the Birdhouse, Chocolate, and Toy Machine teams hauling ass across America, throwing their bodies and whatever dignity they might have had into the wind for a chance to become the reigning King of the Road.This year, Toy Machine returns for its third King of the Road competition. Toy Machine has brought Daniel Lutheran, Blake Carpenter, Billy Marks, Collin Provost, and newcomer Axel Cruysberghs on board to do pretty much whatever it takes to earn the team's first victory.KING OF THE ROAD premieres Thursday, April 28, on VICELAND at 11 PM. Until then, watch the documentary following the last ten years of the competition.
