The Skateboard Mag is an independently published skateboarding magazine. Internal tensions between the Transworld Skateboarding magazine staff and owners AOL Time Warner prompted a walkout of several key editorial members, including J Grant Britain, Dave Swift and Atiba Jefferson, to form The Skateboard Mag in 2003.[1] The first issue was released in March 2004, Issue #1 April 2004.[2]
The Skateboard Mag 's mission statement states that it
| “ | Seeks to maintain the independent nature and integrity of the skateboard culture at all levels, provide readers with a broad, accurate, and knowledgeable view of skateboarding, and advance skateboard publishing through excellence in photography, writing, and design.[3] | ” |
