Issue #1
Nine-Ninety is the brainchild of riders Jared Souney and Brian Tunney, and for a premier issue it's damn good. The bulk of the 40-page full-size newsprint (actually, a step above newsprint) magazine is was written and photographed by the two of them, with Jared doing the layout with a slight Raygun influence. Good stuff is found throughout, with some interesting writing turned in by Tunney, and some damn cool photos from Jarhead. Contest coverage includes Impact Skatepark's first contest and X-Games in San Diego (where Brian provides a cool behind-the-scenes rider's view). Also found is an interview with Dave Parrick, article on injuries, NY trails, and an article by me bitching about riding Web sites. Nine-Ninety is free if you pick it up somewhere; otherwise send US$2 to get yourself a copy:
