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.

Willow's World
This feature on Christoph "Willow" Wildgrube in Cologne, Germany ran in the December 2012 issue of Transworld and coincided with when he turned pro for Almost and with this video part. Words and photos by Oliver Barton.
Flip's (2007) Eurotrashed Tour
The Flip team took a trip through The Netherlands, Germany, Belgium and back to The Netherlands in July of 2007, skating demos and getting tricks at spots along the way, some of which would show up in Extremely Sorry. This article also features what might be the first photos of Christoph "Willow" Wildgrube in an American skateboarding magazine. Words by Ewan Bowman, and photos by Thomas Gentsch and Arto Saari.
One thing I remember from seeing this article for the first time was being in awe of the sequence of Willow's varial heelflip. That set is still huge by today's standards.
