As for Vile. Either he's been offered stuff and turned it down or he's annoyed the wrong people and the offers aren't coming in.

He gets amazing photo's so there must be something else?

I think there are a few things floating around for Vile at the moment and rightly so.

His list of sponsors is long to date and fairly circuitous, strange the way things work out - ATF, Blind Europe, Santa Cruz, Clan 010 - maybe back to the UK finally?

Vile could have claimed the cover was a switch tres haha.. At a glance, great issue. Witness pics are rad. Joe gavin wallride nollie (out the top!) looked like a crook on the bar. Dylan Hughes 5050 on that skinny wire/bar is asking for trouble.... Amir frontside flip pic in the brighton article-OOOOOOOF!!!

What are these shoes? Not that I expect to be able to catch frontside flips like this with them... I thought Alex Moul got Lakais? Triangle logo on the heel, and the general shape makes them look Axion-ish.

[CondescendingRupert]

About to say Axion.

KCK?

KCK?

Exactly my thoughts.

Darren Nolan's photo because rumour has it that he didn't land it, besides which he wears a blond ponytail.

I've heard the pony tail is meant to be some sort of half-baked Davy Crockett refrence. I'd imagine 1 of the 3 people who were there at the time the photo was taken could step forward and confirm the make as well as the Crockett reference.

Amir's photo is amazing.

Axion Mandelas I think.
Alex was/is getting flowed shoes through Mark 'Plain' Brandsetter who was/is the new/old Axion TM.

Here is a second angle of amirs fs flip, the photo used is a make for anyone wondering. I was actually filming someone else in the park when he was trying this but I spun the tripod round every time i saw him hurtling towards the quarter, thats why this angle is pretty botch. Its weird it looks no where near as high as chris's photo but i promise you its the same make.

Just reactivated my facebook account for the first time in months to get somebody's contact details & what do I see? Amir's frontside flip. Fucking hell fire. I know Amir well & know he's keen on the ol' frontside flip but, Jesus Christ, it's actually ridiculous. In fact I'd go so far as to say that it could be worthy of being posted in the 'Best ever' thread (for transition of course, nobody can step up to Penny or Reynolds as far as the street version is concerned). Genuinely gobsmacked by it.

Fuck that - it is fucking massive and, as pointed out by Ed Hubert - the photo is of the make so yes, it was that high.
