Features:

CHIMA TURNS PRO
One of the greatest achievements a skateboarder can accomplish is to have their name printed on a board and into the history books as a professional. We salute the newest inductee, Chima Ferguson.

NEW ZEALAND MISADVENTURE

Ten days in Kiwi country with no itinerary, no warm-ups, no shame, no regard and no stopping a rowdy bunch of Aussie-based lads from ripping NZ a new Aotearoa-hole.

NICK BOSERIO PROBED
Not with some alien enema, but by distinguished readers of Slam asking curiously odd questions to the suitably oddball shredder know as Brass. Nick is sick!

TODD BAKER NEW GEN

This Canberra lout is one compulsive obsession short of autistic. Maybe that's why he's so freakishly good at skateboarding. "Gonna make it, gonna make it, gonna make it…"

CHIMA FERGUSON POSTER
This issue also comes with a pull-out poster, featuring Chima blasting a switch heel on one side and some scooter hate on the other.
