Full bleed – New York skateboard photography
The book ‘Full bleed – New York skateboard photography’ has been out for a while. What makes it so good is, it shows the multiple facets of skateboarding: The characters, the spots, the side action, the tricks, the fashion, and the city that is New York. All of which is constantly changing is archived in this compendium. There would be one thing to make it better: More background info about the photos and an easier way to interrelate the info with the pages, since the numeration is missing. Have a look inside.
Have a good day, sir
Catch the friendly fire of Dave Ackels’ skate vid series named “Absorb”.

Skateboarding in Uganda
These kids from the Uganda Skateboard Union definitely feel asphalt. After building their own structures near Kampala/Uganda “the elder ones use this sport as a means of communication within their community to transmit values as respect and solidarity.” Quote from the ’Kitintale’ folder from Yann Gross. More photos of the spots and skateboarders here. Also go for the videos.
