You won’t believe your eyes even after witnessing how far vert legend Bob Burnquist has personally taken skateboarding in such a short period of time. Bob naturally kills everything in this issue, including the cover shot taken on his backyard dream ramp. Bob is featured in a "Five" spot, along with Nilton Neves and Rodrigo Teixeira, doing some of today's most innovative, street-inspired vert skating. Issue 53's DVD-only bonus footage takes us back a short way on the calendar, but a huge distance in skating's progression with Bob Burnquist's first time ever skating on video! Check Up: Mike Vallely's definitely got a lot on his schedule between skating, music and owning his own company.   Rookie: Upcoming talent Jake Nunn. Road Trip: Circa and Billabong. Circa skaters Colt Cannon, Adrian Lopez and John Rattray roam around New Zealand. Billabong shows us a few of Australia's concrete playgrounds with the likes of Chad Bartie, Daniel Haney and Bucky Lasek. See a photo gallery packed with highlights of the trip.
