ConcreteWave Editions Copyright Date:05 Review Date: 8/23/05 Formerly known as just The Skatepark Guide, Best of the West is now being published by the Concrete Wave Editions, meaning the good folks at Concrete Wave Magazine.

Slave Labor Graphics Copyright Date: Review Date: 7/28/05 “Orphan of the streets and skateboarding daughter of justice, Jesse Sanchez fights a never ending battle against the forces of evil, nepotism, ninjas, and hunger as Street Angel!” Usually, when subcultures try to engage in some sort of crossover attempt, the results are disappointing or even insulting […]

Sean Cliver Concrete Wave Editions Copyright Date: 2004 Review Date: 2004 Updated: 4/6/2005 2004 has been a banner year for good skateboard-related books. Independent’s Built to Grind certainly raised the bar, and Disposable has stepped up to the plate. If you don’t have time read through a bunch of superfluous words I wrote in order […]
