Declaration of Independents: Snowboarding, Skateboarding & Music--An Intersection of Cultures (U)

Declaration of Independents is the state of the union address for the most energetic of today's youth cultures. The editors of Heckler magazine, the mouthpiece for the thriving community of skateboarders, snowboarders, and music fans, have assembled hundreds of photographs, original essays, interviews, and profiles of the famous, not-so famous, and utterly notorious figures of the scene over the last two decades. From the generation of Jake Burton, Tony Alva, and Ian Mackaye to today's greats, the editors of Heckler include the athletes and musicians that matter. Together they ponder the big questions: how did everyone get their starts, how has everything changed since the suits and sponsorships walked on the scene, and who still rips? Declaration of Independents puts Heckler magazine's years of frontline writing and photography together in one master document of the forces that will continue to shape our culture for years to come.
