You know I find it so hard to find snowboard magazines on the shelf in the local newsagency, this is only gonna make it harder!

I remember when I was younger I got the first issue of some random snowboard magazine, no idea what the name was, but it had a feature on Clint Allan and his brothers when they were also just kids!

i gave up on trying to find them on shelves.There was one newsagent on the main road in Thirroul next to beaches that had all sorts of snowboarding mags. I was doing some works at the medical centre there and used to go in every smoko and get a different one.

This is comin from someone that prefers the whimsical happenins of Sarah Jessica Parker and her gal pals and their shoppin mishaps, over that of the pure brilliance from people that shaped humour in a direction that nobody has ever done before or since!!!!!  hmmm

I’ll take your comment as a compliment!!!!!  cheese

Yep Deano, that newsagent is sweet! You can find Onboard in there fairly often which is really good.

Glad to see Riptide hasn’t folded, as they are in the Morrison Media stable. I knew it hadn’t though cos I would have heard all about it on facebook if it had!

Thirroul Newsagent is the only place I find AVW on the shelf (Australian Volkswagen). It’s a dangerous place for me - I always buy a few mags when I enter and I don’t buy mags often!

Interesting. Thanks for sharing this, oz.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the US financial situation.

Sorry to see magazine has to be folded up…
I guess to do with culture changes like video rental has shut down due new video rental online….
Be honestly I haven’t buy magazine for very long time, I always check latest on any forums thats free and easy…
