Slowly archiving photos and articles from Skateboarder Magazine and The Skateboard Mag, while also including stuff from Transworld, SLAP, Thrasher. I am not, nor have I ever been, formally affiliated with any of these magazines.
Pro Spotlight: Mike Anderson
Manderson's Pro Spotlight interview from the August 2011 issue of Transworld. Words by Mackenzie Eisenhour and photos by Dave Chami, Seu Trinh and Mike O'Meally. This came out around the same time that his part in Not Another Transworld Video premiered.
James Hardy - October 2008 interview
James's interview from the October 2008 issue of SLAP. Words by Ian Berry and photos by Shigeo, Ty Bush and Ryan Lusteg. There's a lot of incredible photos of tricks from his Ride The Sky part in this one.
RIP James.
Heads: Steve Nesser and Ernie Torres
Steve and Ernie's Heads interviews from the December 2003 issue of Thrasher. Gabe Morford shot Ernie's backside flip sequence, otherwise there is no photo credit.
Bastien Salabanzi - The Thrasher Interview
Bastien's feature 22-page interview from the December 2003 issue of Thrasher. Words by Michael Burnett and photos by Burnett, Nicolas Huynh, Andrew Mapstone and Michelini Sebastien.
Pro Spotlight: Jim Greco
Jim Greco's Pro Spotlight interview from the March 2001 issue of Transworld. Words and photos by Atiba, including the cover photo.
Who the hell is Shane Cross?
A September 2004 Thrasher feature for up-and-comer Shane Cross (RIP). Interview by Michael Burnett and Matt Mumford, and photos by Burnett and Nick Scurich. There's some homophobic language in this one which doesn't age well, which is not uncommon for the time. Otherwise, the photos are really sick, especially the 21-stair Smith.
Stevie Williams - July 2001 interview
Stevie's interview from the July 2001 issue of Thrasher. Words by Leland Ware and photos by Shelby Woods.
Jason Dill - 2001 Strength cover
Today, my new scanner was delivered to my house. After I got it set up, I decided that I wanted to mark the new era in this ongoing project by scanning a magazine I'd never scanned before. Here it is below, the first image of Strength I have ever scanned. It's of Jason Dill doing a back Smith on an out ledge for the cover of the July/August 2001 issue. The photo was shot by Mike Blabac, and the clip appeared as a guest trick in Arto Saari's Sorry part.
Rick Howard - July 2003 Lakai ad
Rick Howard nosesliding in Tijuana and appearing in the July 2003 Lakai ad scanned from Skateboarder. Photo by Ben Colen. You can see the clip here.
