first look: march 2017 issue of the bible with geoff rowley (who?)!
the liverpool legend geoff rowley flips through another thick issue loaded with first-rate ripping, sprinkling in expert analysis and preferable methods of slamming on a rail.
...and you too! a “trick” or ”treat”, honestly?!!!
on fukkin' point, and this is probably one of the best quotes in skateboarding's history, in my bloody opinion. =)
this is also one of the few reasons that i personally dislike “methods”,“style” and “technicality” aspects on how to push a fukkin' skateboard “properly”. so distasteful and seriously, who really gives a fukk?!!! no, i am neither mad nor angry, i am just sayin'... so, you go ahead and do your thang, and i'll do mine, aight? thats' it, end of story. finito!

overview.
-----
put on the 3d glasses and immerse yourself in a hyper-real world of vibrating color, extreme tricks, and professional skateboarders. featuring the european carhartt skate team and inspired by virtual spaces, this award-winning volume brings the culture of skateboarding to life while exploring the thrilling possibilities of 3d photography. skater and photographer sebastian denz spent three years travelling across europe photographing some of the best skateboarders within its borders. long before 3d became popular in current cinema, denz used its effect to capture these striking images, including portraits of skateboarders as well as action shots in various locations from diy spots to skate bowls situated in barns and backyards. denz built his own large-format camera to take the 3d pictures in a never-before-seen quality and produced unique images which come to life in three dimensions and pay tribute to skateboarding culture.
this time around our mission was to do an entire issue on our hometown of “berlin” - an ode to the city’s future and past with some present thrown in the mix for good measure.
and here’s a little sneak peek on what’s happening in our “berlin”issue.
- david lichtenauer... is dividing his time between building high-concept skate ramps, high-concept airplanes and high-concept miniature filmsets - amongst many other creative high-concept things.
- thomas von wittich... has been following berlin’s notorious graffiti crew “berlin kidz“ for two years - and luckily for us he always carried a camera with him.
- moscowman... probably is the hottest ticket on today’s dance floors, not only in berlin but world wide - and we had a long conversation with the young Israeli about his mission to free all dance floors.
- ruth wolf-rehfeldt... is an unfairly forgotten genius from the former gdr, whose art is very complex, very skilled, very elaborate - and it was entirely created with her trusted typewriter.
- more eloquent statements and visual awesomeness about “berlin” from the likes of: lukas feireiss, andreas gehrke, anna uddenberg, live from earth, conny maier, zhivago duncan, alex gnädiger and many others.
cover by daniel josefson (r.i.p. 1961 - 2016).
the “berlin”magazine has the format 200mm width x 250mm height and features high quality print, different paper stocks & comes with flaps + specials colors!
warning, the footages you're about to watch are NSFW, guise!!! so all ov y'all, please view at your own discretion, a'ight? thanks!

after the big anniversary issue #100 we thought it’s a brilliant idea to deal with youth and its subsequent cultures - before we’re getting too old to have a clue about it. this is the first issue in a series of shape-shifting editions in a mono-thematic fashion.
and here’s a little sneak peek on what’s happening in our youth issue
- don letts... the original culture clash master, who single-handedly turned a generation of punks into reggae enthusiasts, speaks his mind about youth culture’s rich past and rather sober present.
- mark oblow... has been busy building his own brand moblow between surfing, skating, consulting, shooting photos for various clients and enjoying the beaches and food of costa mesa.
- less... the celebrated south korean photographer is an expert when it comes to capturing seoul’s youth, which has the tendency to completely lose it as soon as the weekend arrives.
- sylvan rand... was there, he witnessed all the new styles and movements and protests of the last five decades, and saw how the youngsters finally liberated themselves - and luckily for us, he finally decided to open his impressive archive to the public.
- more eloquent statements and visual awesomeness about “youth“ from the likes of: trevor jackson, zuza krajewska, mike blabac, the internet, gaurab thakali, kazuhiro hori and many others...
specs for the trump card players: 220 mm width x 274 mm height, portrait format, high quality print, different paper stocks, uv lacquer.
