Seconds Magazine – Vol 1

January 17th, 2011 by william | No Comments | Filed in New Zealand, magazine

Ex- Dunedinite Adrian Vercoe has not been idle during the Japanese winter, check out this online magazine that Adrian has produced using photos that didn’t make it to print, the majority donated to the cause by Jake Mein, but other New Zealand skateboarding photographers make guest appearances. A testament to the power of networking and the internet. Good Job!
