In this issue

We drop an arbiter’s subjective ranking of 100 postmodern wave riders, examine a pop-cultural misappropriation of surfing, and explore the obsessive nature of noseriding. We also talk survival with a seasoned Pacific Northwest local, ride full-speed with a contemporary shredder, and browse a prolific graffiti writer’s flicks.
