Economies of style? No: economies of layout. One of the spin-offs of experimenting with shooting high speed colour print film (instead of the transparencies normally used for magazine work in those days) was that we could take four of the machine prints from the chemists, stick them together on a bit of card and count them as one picture. So we could get four pictures onto a page using half our normal “two scans per page” allocation. Honest. Those were very different times.
Justin Ashby, Pete Dosset, Andy Williams and Sean Ward are the skaters featured here.

Yep, I remember Sean Ward ripping up that vert ramp, alley-oop fakey frontside 50 to fakie. That vert was a beast! So slidey too with its masonite surface, we had to mop it with coke and water to get it skateable!
