Marisa Dal Santo #2.



It's awesome how much of an influence Marisa has turned out to be on the younger generations of skateboarders. Upon further recent review, she got more coverage than I remembered. However, Marisa should've had a Zero ad. The world would have been fine if they took a month off from running pictures of boys jumping down handrails.

As an added bonus, here's Marisa's Who's Hot from Skateboarder:


Notes: I had to piece the Who's Hot together from multiple scans of the same page due to a wrinkled copy of the magazine. That's why it looks slightly funky in spots. As is often the case with skateboarding journalism, Marisa's name repeatedly fell victim to spelling errors.

The photos are by Jonathan Mehring, Joey Shigeo, and Jehonathan "J-Hon" Poellnitz.
