If this list was made in 2024, which of these ten would still be on it?
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.

The Ten Best Lines Ever Caught on Video
This Quirk feature was put together by Mackenzie Eisenhour for the April 2003 issue of Skateboarder, with comments from Dan Wolfe, Ty Evans and Greg Hunt. Below are timestamps to all of the lines mentioned.
Video Days: 20th Anniversary Reunion (repost)
One of the first things I uploaded to this blog two years ago was the Video Days 20th Anniversary article that was published in the February/March 2011 Skateboarder (the first issue when they switched to the oversized format and published 6 issues/year). I've since refined how I scan magazines, and rescanned this article over the course of last week (scanning the oversized issues is tedious). Below are the new scans. Words by Jaime Owens, and photos by Jaime & many others. As I mentioned two years ago, I also appreciate the irony of scanning and posting an article that includes scans from Chrome Ball Incident - very meta.
Guy had the cover of this same issue, getting a new trick at the same spot he skated for his Video Days ender. The still was shot by Ben Colen, and the sequence that was included inside of the cover was shot by John Bradford.
The Photography of Spike Jonze
This portfolio article of Spike's photography appears in the July/August 2000 issue of Skateboarder, which is also the only issue of the magazine that he got a photo on the cover of. The article includes early photos of Gonz, Natas, Hosoi, Guy, Jason Lee, and more. The intro to it was written by Kevin Wilkins.
Going Solo: The Practice of Skating Alone - Brian Gaberman Photo Feature
This appeared in the October 2004 issue of Skateboarder and features Jason Lee, Reese Forbes, a young Silas Baxter-Neal, and a few others. The John Buchanan kickflip is so epic.
Jason Lee & Chris Pastras announcing the restart of Stereo Skateboards
In the October 2003 issue of Skateboarder, Aaron Meza interviews Jason Lee and Chris Pastras about them restarting Stereo Skateboards after a 3-year hiatus (7 years for Jason, who left the company in 1996). They also got a few tricks for the article (all photos by Mike O'Meally), and after 2 or 3 days of trying, Jason got his 360 flips back.
Video Days: 20th Anniversary Reunion
Below is the article Jaime Owens put together to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Video Days. It appeared in the February/March 2011 issue of Skateboarder, which was the first issue of the mag when it was reformatted to be bigger and to come out every other month rather than monthly. I remember being incredibly stoked on this article when I first read it. Hearing Jaime talk about the making of it on his Nine Club interview made me want to scan it in so that anyone who hadn't read it but had heard about it on the podcast could take a look at it.
It's very late and I need to get to sleep, so I haven't labelled any of the photographer credits yet. I just wanted to get the scans up as soon as possible.
Also, the archival ads posted throughout this article were provided by chromeballincident - I am fully appreciating the irony of scanning a magazine article that has scans of older magazine ads and articles in it.
Okay, here's the damn feature. Enjoy!
