Street Art, AWOL 13 and Onwards..
Glen Fox, street art in Normandy; photo: Richard Hart
This one comes from PP13, the ‘No Skateboarding’ issue; confusing skaters the World over.. apart from the US apparently, as the copies sent there never arrived.
You can still order PP13 from the SHOPPE though (at present), along with other stuff.
Coincidentally, PP13’s guest artist is Mr. Fox.
(And there will be more from the quick-foot master in PP14..)

Brook for PP13
Torralvo / Greene / Delatorre / Big Blue, SF; photo: Joe Brook
From PP13; the first skate mag to feature no photos of tricks. Because skating isn't all about tricks, after all. And this photo illustrates the most fun aspect of skating as far as I'm concerned.
Have fun cruising around with your friends this weekend..

PP13
PP13 is a 2018 photo annual. With no skate photos.
Yes, for the first (and probably last) time- a whole magazine with no tricks; dedicated instead to the in-between moments, incidents and interactions that we all experience when out skating. (And after all, the point of skateboarding shouldn't be tricks..)
With contributions from Joe Brook, Ben Gore, Jai Tanju, Olman Torres, Benjamin Deberdt, Josh Stewart and Adam Schneider. Guest artist is Glen Fox.
Out now.

This and many other unpublished photos of Traffic alumni were unearthed for a special ‘From the Vaults: Traffic’ zine, available now.

Oyola Upstream
Ricky Oyola- f/s board up, Philly, 2003; photo: Richard Hart
One of my favourite projects from 2018 was working on a guest board for Traffic. Which soon turned into two guest boards and a zine and some shirts.
Here's Oyola swimming upstream in 2003; originally seen in Transworld and reprinted in the zine. (I will, incidentally, be making some photo prints available soonish.)
Best wishes for 2019 and on we go..

Traffic / Hart Boards
There are two new collab boards out on Traffic designed by Richard Hart.
One features drawings of traffic and the other features the photo of Luke Malaney’s bloodied, crooked paws that appeared in PP11.
Both boards come with a limited edition ‘From the Vaults: Traffic’ zine, featuring photos of Traffic alumni 2000-2018.
There are only 50 of each board, so ask Santa quick smart.
A handful of extra zines (without boards) are available from the SHOPPE here, or from Theories (US) or Palomino (UK).

Joe Brook docu video
Frank Gerwer by Joe Brook
The unmistakable profile of one F. Gerwer, shot by Joe Brook for PP3.
If you're looking at this website, you're probably into skateboarding, photography, and specifically film photography. So be sure to check out the three short films that Ilford have just made about Joe Brook, Ray Barbee and Jason Lee, regarding these very subjects. Nice work, everyone concerned.

Ben's cover on Zach's 30th
Ben Gore- f/s nollie heelflip, Athens; photo: Richard Hart
The cover photo for PP11 was this one.
This spot is a bit of a mission to get to (cheers George!) but well worth it. There were storm clouds looming though, and right after Ben landed it, the first drip-drip of rain-drops fell; then a storm of Biblical proportions erupted.
Oh yeh, it was also filmer Zach Chamberlin’s 30th birthday. Quite a memorable one..
