Thank you to Live Skateboard Media for their interview about Push, and to The Good Copy for their review of Issue 1. Also there is a Cameron Adair Podcast with an audio interview about.. stuff.
Cheers all.

The GX1000 Tokyo edit is now up.
(I remember filmer Ryan saying to me, before the trip- "I want to get lots of footage of security guards kicking us out"; "That shouldn't be a problem" I replied..)
Push Issue 2 will have an article from this trip, coming out January 2016.
Krooked NY zine

Sort of an un-official Push 1.5, this zine features photos of the Krooked team on a visit to the grimy streets of New York earlier this year. It comes with the Richard Hart guest-artist board (and there are probably a few more copies of it floating around, if you keep your eyes open).
The board is a limited edition of 333 and will be released sometime in November..

It was an honour and a pleasure to work on Matt's interview for Push Periodical issue 1. When we started to shoot, I was still only vaguely toying with the idea of making a magazine. But when we started to get tricks like this one, the mag began to take form in my head, and I knew I wanted to make a full Field interview for it. (Not that I told him for a while!) Thank you Matty.

No introduction needed for this guy. Important and inspiring. I was stoked to be able to include him in the first Push Periodical 'Foto' section.
If you are looking for a copy of the mag, see the list of sellers/ distros in previous post; I have none left.
Issue 1
I am both stunned and reassured to report that I sold out of Push 1 before the release show in SF last week. Most of the copies are currently on their way to distributors and online shops (see list in last post, below..), and should be available very soon.
I have a handful of copies left for the second release party & photo show in Croatia this month. (Stay tuned about potential Bordeaux release.)
Thank you everybody for your support, especially advertisers Magenta, Northern Co., Carhartt WIP, FTC, & Quasi; and my dashing and talented contributors Mark Whiteley, Sergei Vutuc, Ben Gore, Zach Chamberlin, Aymeric Nocus & Mat O'Brien.
Thanks too, of course, to everybody who appears in issue 1: Brendan Carroll, Alex Davis, Brian Delatorre, Matt Field, Glen Fox, Mark Gonzales, Ben Gore, Jake Johnson, Jimmy Lannon, Zach Lyons, Takahiro Morita, Taylor Nawrocki, Stevie Perez & Tobin Valverde. You all rule at skateboarding and life.
Til next time.
