“Elegantly compiled, a fantastic arrangement of artwork” – WESC

Full-value illustrated design book with 10 unreleased layout designs of the early days of the Playboard Magazine (only for the iPhone and iPod touch).

A professionally compiled “sketchbook” this volume takes a highly individual look at board-based sports – without going over board or succumbing to trendiness.
