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.
Meet the Gerwers
Frank talks to Alex Klein about what it was like to grow up Gerwer for the December 2004 issue of Skateboarder. Photos by Gabe Morford. Happy 50th, Frank!
Curtain Call: Pat Burke
The Curtain Call article for Pat Burke's legendary Radio Television part from 2009. Crazy to think that this video came out 15 years ago. Hyperlinks to the clips he talks about are below the scan. The photo sequence was shot by J-Hon.
Filthy Forever
This 8-page article from the May 2010 issue of The Skateboard Mag documents a trip Shad Lambert took to Australia with some of the Supra team. The photo of Antwuan's switch frontside flip is incredible.
The Captain Is Plastered
This 8-page article from the February 2004 issue of Skateboarder documents an 11-day RV trip the Kr3w team (and Dustin Dollin) took from LA to Denver sometime in 2003. Intro written by Erik Ellington and photos by Shigeo.
Jon Allie - Fallen ad
Before becoming a part of the C1rca squad, Jon Allie had a brief stint on Fallen, appearing in the third-ever ad for the company, posted below. I scanned it from the February 2004 issue of Skateboarder. By the December 2004 issue, he was announced in the Squawk Box section as the newest pro on C1rca. No photo credit given for this Fallen ad, but possibly Shigeo? The tailslide clip appeared at the end of Jon's New Blood part.

PJ Ladd's interview from the February 2004 issue of Skateboarder. Words by Aaron Meza and photos by Brian Gaberman and Atiba Jefferson.

The 10 Most Hated Tricks of All Time (and Tim O'Connor's addendum)
This Top Ten list was put together by Mackenzie Eisenhour for the April 2003 issue of Skateboarder. After reading it, Tim O'Connor decided that he wanted to add seven more skateboarding sins to the list and has his additions published in the June 2003 issue.
The European Brain Drain: Six skaters spend their summer in Europe
This article covers six skaters' 2002 summer trips to Europe, capturing their thoughts on the food, nightlife and spots they encountered. It was put together by then-staff photographer Oliver Barton for the January 2003 issue of Skateboarder.
Junkyard Dogs
Mike Ballard and a few skaters took a brief respite from the struggles of shooting skate photos in the streets to shoot a junkyard feature for the July 2001 issue of Skateboarder. Steve Berra and JB Gillet also got the cover and Contents page, respectively, with photos from the same session.
I don't skate. I'm just a kook. (by Dave Carnie)
Dave Carnie makes some thoughts about bullshit in media & advertising to accompany some skate photos shot by Jay Michelfelder, Jeff Landi, Jody Morris, Atiba and Rodent. Published in the September 2004 issue of The Skateboard Mag.
In the Moment: Brian Gaberman photo feature
A Brian Gaberman photo feature from the August 2003 issue of Skateboarder. Lots of good photos in this one, but the Satva front crook at China Banks is my favorite. Fittingly, it's his first appearance on this blog.
Divulge: Adelmo Jr.
Adelmo's interview from the August 2003 issue of Skateboarder. Words by Alex Klein and photos by Shigeo. I scanned this issue mostly to get this interview up. I love the switch back tail on Sylmar photo.
