On the cover: The mirage-like Palmetto Point, in all its “everything aligns” glory. With access and, potentially, natural sediment distributions at risk due to big-moneyed interests, Barbuda’s already ephemeral wave could become nonexistent, wiped out in place of vacation estates and tee boxes. It’s the rare cause worthy of spot exposure in the name of preservation. Photo by Al Mackinnon. Further down the line, we check in with a creative multi-hyphenate turned ’80s clothing magnate, the internal monolog of a zeitgeist shredder, the extracurriculars of a European logger, the bright pallet of a Brazilian designer, an A-list shooter’s multi-decade retrospective, and a family three generations deep into hunting slabs and crafting trusted boards. For the full ride, pick up a copy of TSJ 31.5.
