Some of the covers I picked out are ones I see repeatedly when flipping through the stacks while tracking down stuff to scan. Repetition works. I like Anthony's board in the photo - a couple of stickers, lot of a solid color, and scratched out graphics. It looks cool. I'm not so sure how good the cover design is with the magazine's name in small text to the side and all the white. Running the photo as a full bleed and having a white S or maybe a red S with a white outline would be more dramatic and attention grabbing. The cover is from a few months after AVE and Jason Dill started the FA board company. I think he's still riding an Alien Workshop deck so it is probably an older picture. Eric Koston had a Nike ad from 2011 where he was frontside grinding the wall at the same spot.
Anthony Acosta was the photographer.
