On the cover: Tahurai Henry, velocity and shadows at Teahupoo. “I wanted to convey the sense of speed and energy that goes along with the wave itself,” says photographer Ben Thouard, “but I also wanted to experiment with light and the silhouette of the rider. A lot of attempts went into capturing this photo. This one stood out from the others.”
In this issue, we investigate the properties and mystique of magic surfboards, dig through a surf shooter’s 50-year-deep file, walk the beach with a trendsetting scavenger, and view prime selects by a South African photographer. We also head due north to cut first tracks at an Arctic slab, and session right points between blizzards. See what’s inside.
