About Tony Magnusson

Tony Magnusson is a Swedish professional skateboarder and entrepreneur from Tyresö, Stockholm, born February 23, 1963, known as "T-Mag." He started skating at 12, moved to the United States at 16, and began his professional career in 1983. In 1987 he co-founded H-Street Skateboards with Mike Ternasky, one of the first rider-owned companies in the industry. H-Street introduced a DIY approach to skate videos, shooting on home equipment at a faster pace than the major companies, which helped shift how the industry produced and consumed video content. The team included Ron Allen, Matt Hensley, and a young Danny Way. H-Street's Shackle Me Not (1988) and Hokus Pokus (1989) are considered landmark productions of the era. Magnusson also designed the Hell Concave board shape, an extended deep concave that has become standard. He co-founded Osiris Shoes in 1996 and was inducted into the Skateboarding Hall of Fame in 2024.
