I'm sure this must have been asked before, but what's your favourite skate(or other?!)mag cover of all time?
If people can be bothered sourcing 'em this thread has a lil' potential to be some enjoyable visuals.
Chami's a wizard, the story behind this one puts it up there for me.
I love Chami and the photo is still nice but I feel like after going to all that effort, there could've been a bit more 'underwater' in that shot to really make it stand out from your typical low-angle fisheye shot. There's some snowboarder photo that was a similar idea but they built a pond and put a bunch of fish in it which is pretty full on.
Might post up a few covers next time I'm on a PC.
This cover stands out the most as it was the first ever copy of a skateboarding magazine that I owned. Flip Sorry hadn't come out yet and I didn't know who Tom Penny was at the time, but the height of the catch always got me stoked. I didn't realise until later how rare it was for a sequence to make it to the cover.
if anyone knows where to find that image without the logos (thrashers ok just couldn't live with the names dyet and lutzka up on my wall) hit me up please
Nate dawg - pretty sure Chami couldn't get any deeper because the water was messing with the pocketwizards the lower he went
Reynolds thrasher covs is so awesome
