Geoff Rowley - varial heelflip Santa Monica triple set
An October 2002 Vans ad of Geoff Rowley varial heelflipping the Santa Monica triple set, which was his ender in Sorry. Photo sequence by Burnett. I scanned this from Skateboarder. An iconic trick from an iconic skateboarder.
When In Rome... October 2002 Italy tour article
Aaron Meza (words), Giovanni Reda (photos) and a small (mostly) Italian crew of skaters toured through Rome sometime in 2002 and made an article out of it for the October 2002 issue of Skateboarder. That sequence of Gino's nollie back heel is perfect, great job Reda!
Divulge: Reese Forbes
This appears in the October 2002 issue of Skateboarder. Words by Alex Klein and skate photos by Dennis McGrath (Gaberman shot the portrait). The backside flip sequence at 3rd & Army is incredible.
2002 Antihero train trip across the US
In his signature handwritten style and with some point-and-shoot photos (skate photos by Gabe Morford), Julien Stranger gives an overview of an Antihero trip through the US that included himself, Frank Gerwer, Peter Hewitt, Tim Upson and a very young Tony Trujillo. There's a great ollie photo of Julien in this, and Tony's frontside roll-in on the sea wall will always be awesome (he did it again for the January 2004 Thrasher KOTR cover).
Nike's "First Sponsor" ad series
This was a pretty interesting ad series that Nike ran for 5 continuous months, from September 2002 to January 2003. These ads I scanned were in Skateboarder; I am assuming that they appeared in other magazines as well, though. I only have Skateboarder issues from this time period.
Also, I can't say with 100% certainty that these were the only ones that they did. I checked in the issues immediately before and after these five months and didn't see any, but that doesn't mean that they didn't extend the ad campaign for a different magazine.
It looks like Todd Jordan got photo credit for all of these ads. I wonder if it was his idea to do this series?
