Straight from the horse's mouth, here's a taste of what to expect in the new issue. "Thats right folks, issue 15 is just about on the shelves and we welcome you to the summer of contradictions. In our special report we buck an old trend to give props to the IBA. They're a fine group of gents who've done a lot with a little and received even less in return. The world tour is now growing big and strong, hosting a tour schedule the pros are looking forward to not making excuses for. On the other side, we profile two guys who've had very little regard for contest results. Spencer Skipper has a style that's made him the envy of the bodyboarding world, revered as champ without the constraints of a contest guernsey. Max Arent-Highfield is part of the new-gen who value publicity over the local comp scene, building his profile through the mags and vids. Joel Taylor takes some time out from his burgeoning empire to pen some lessons while Jose Marquina kicks open the doors to bodyboarding's future. The Central Coast Gang, Kyle Maligro and more big shots than a boardroom meeting. We're predicting a cool change this summer." << BACK © 2006 UNITE. Clothing Company |
