It’s been a while; I know. So, to recap:
This photo is from PP1 which sold out long ago, but I recently unearthed a few copies of PP11, 13 and 17 which were all previously sold out. So if you want any of those, get on that SHOP tab above.. (Note: PP13 is the ‘No Skateboarding Issue’, and a rarer one as the 400 copies headed to the US mysteriously disappeared.)
Check out Taylor and the rest of the Picture Show crew in their new promo.
You’ve prob’ly seen the new Quasi video but have you seen the latest raw Rios Crew edit from Budapest starring PP pal Ricsi?
(Also: this…)

The four interviews from PP17 are now up on here.
There have been a couple of other interesting interviews lately, too. There’s one with UK filmer Dan Magee (Blueprint, ‘Cover Version’ etc.) on the Vague site, and one with Don Brown (ex-pro freestyler and driving force behind the Etnies/Emerica/Es family of brands) on the Slam site.

Up at the top o’ the page there, you’ll see a new ‘INTERVIEWS’ tab.
PP17, the Interview Issue, is now sold out; but for those of you who didn’t get a copy or who can’t read English (and are reading this translated by a helpful algorithm), you can now read the four interviews on the loose theme of creativity in skateboarding.
First up is Soy Panday, the other three to follow soon.

If you’re interested in the history of British skating / skate publications, there’s an entertaining interview with ‘Skane’, one-time editor of Skateboard! magazine, on the Slam City site.
“I wanted to tell skateboarders that what they were doing was really important. It really matters. It’s historic and it’s not a sport.”

An excerpt from PP18’s unpublished portrait section.
Too bad this legendary skate spot is now gone. I hadn’t been there in years when I shot this, so it’s good to have a final snapshot of this time and place.
