Volume 28 Issue 5
In this issue, we explore the North Shore’s culture of youthful goading in heavy surf, dodge gun-toting property owners in search for slabs in New England, and relay the foreign scams and scandals of Nat Young and Miki Dora. Profiles of twin-fin artist Torren Martyn, tattooer Ben Grillo, and cross-stepper Josie Prendergast add a touch of the personal.
