In this issue

We follow the path of a French foam and fiberglass perfectionist, examine the surfing roots of a skate industry titan, and bet on the Emerald Isle. We also pit stop at an eccentric gallery on California’s Central Coast, view the artworks of a big-wave pioneer, study the surfer/photographer relationship between a generational style master and lensman, and more.
