I know you know what I’m talking about. It was a probably a Playboy or Penthouse, it was all crusty from being left out in the weather, the cover has been faded by the sun, and you wonder how the hell it ended up where it did. Well, if you think back, do you remember how you and your friends were all huddled around and flipped though the pages with amazement! You were excited to see what was on the next page, but didn’t want to flip too fast because you wanted to soak in everything that you were currently looking at?! Well, I think that’s the same way you’ll feel flipping though this issue of Focus!

 

There’s all sorts of good stuff in here, but you’ll have to run down to your local shop (or subscribe) to get all the details. In the meantime, enjoy the cover with Dave Bachinsky’s backside nose blunt and the the rest of the sneak peek!

This issue is full of all sorts of good stuff, as you’ll be able to see below. For starters, take a look at the cover – Solomon Mosley with this sick frontside flip shot by Ben Kilpatrick. He’s been killing it for quite some time, and we’re really hyped that we could give him the cover this month.

Make sure you haul ass to you local shop and pick up a copy. They go fast, so you better be faster! See you in 2012.

We’re kicking this one off with our first cover shot by Ben Kilpatrick, with Naysayer Skateboard’s founder Eby Ghafarian blasting this frontside bench-to-bench ollie. From there, things keep heating up.

 

This issue has a spotlight on Birmingham, Alabama, Small Talks with Chris Mathis & Nick Panza, a sick NJ pool article with dudes just killing it and much more. Grab your copy while they last… I guarantee that won’t be long!

 

Big shout out to all of our advertisers for their ongoing support! THANKS!

May is special for us because this issue is our anniversary issue! OUR 6th TO BE EXACT! Beside being special to us, we busted our butts making it special for you too. How, you ask? For starters, a side from beefing up with a few extra pages, this issue also comes with a SICK FREE Ambig/Focus poster, as well as a FREE DVD from Untitiled Skateboards: “Come & Die”.  On a side note, this is the first time we ever used a sequence on the cover. This sequence of Anthony Tomasetti was shot by one of the newest members of the Focus family, our ad salesman, Luke Darigan. Give him a shout for props on coming through with this cover and to buy some ad space!
