#17 May/June 1998

RIDER: Devun Walsh
LOCATION: Treble Cone
PHOTOGRAPHER: Stan Hill

The cover is a Stan Hill shot of Devun Walsh drifting at TC. The contents spread is a sick shot of Dani Meier laying it over at Mt. Olympus. There are plenty more sick shots in the gallery “Still Motion”, including Matt Groube, Aaron Jamieson, Dan Fountain, Marco Lutz, Luke Fitcher, Paul Trapski, Sonny Fisher, and Jane Mauser. Quentin Robbins takes us through an inverted 720 in “Trick Tip”, and at the other end of the spectrum Suzy Parker shows beginner basics in “Riding Tips”. Harro reports back from the Nagano Olympics, where snowboarding debuts and our own Pamela Bell represents in GS. Of course there’s the annual “Buyer’s Guide”, including a whole page on step-in bindings which are all the rage. A heap of “Contests” are reviewed, and “Inside” looks at the underbelly of snowboarding – the SIA Trade Show in Vegas. Juliane Bray and Jason Pickelmann are the pick for “Fast Forward”.
