Julien, Jamie, Lance, Ed, and Rickk all weigh in on what it's like to be a pro skater for the company that they own. The interviews were conducted by Aaron Meza, and photo credit can be found within the scans.
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.

Bruised, Battered & Driven: The Antihero Story
Julien Stranger gives an overview of the early days of Antihero in a 12-page article stuffed with Gabe Morford photos. This was published 22 years ago; there are riders on the team now who were toddlers when this piece came out.
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).
The Beauty & The Beast Tour article - January 2010 Skateboarder
This issue centered almost entirely around the 2009 Beauty & The Beast tour, which was the second of the three that Girl & Anti Hero did together. Below is the feature article documenting the trip and all of the other pieces in the magazine that featured riders from the tour, in order off how they appear in the magazine.
I loved watching those tour videos when they came out. Some of the best tours ever. This is also one of the two Skateboarders I have that got water damaged, so the pages are a bit crinkly and there's some glare I couldn't get rid of. I think it's kind of cool, though... gives the scan some personality... maybe.

Everything Burns: 2001 Thrasher Australia trip tour article
This article appears in the March 2001 issue of Thrasher. I'm guessing that it is a Spitfire tour, but I'm not 100% sure. It's full of amazing photos (taken by Luke Ogden), including one of my favorites of Brian Anderson (frontside bluntslide).
Julien Stranger Vans ad - Summer 1998 Skateboarder
I'm attempting two-page merge scans for the first time tonight, and the first one I did was a two-page Vans ad with Julien Stranger doing a frontside air. With almost all of the magazines I have, I am able to scan two pages simultaneously, but the Summer 1997 & 1998 and the February/March 2011-Feb/March 2013 issues of Skateboarder have 12-inch wide pages, which means they're 24" wide for a two-page scan. Thankfully, an unknowing benefit of upgrading my scanner is that it is able to "merge" two separate scans. Pretty interesting, eh? If you've read this far into this post, I commend you for your diligence.
Anyways, here's the ad.
