LO1: draft articles

Editoral 

Hi Im Will this is SBMX. 

SBMX is a Skateboarding and BMX magazine, based in Sheffield. This is our first ever issue, we have tried to bring you a contemporary magazine with a fresh look. Me personally have made this magazine by my self from the pre and post productions, my favourite part of making this issue was the interview with Dylan Young. 

I spent the day with him at the bowl, very down to earth person with allot of potential. Jack was another character and he had some interesting ways of how he could ride not using a board.

I hope you like this issue and will keep on reading your issues to come.

Jack interview 

I went to meet jack and have check up with him, i asked what his average day is like 

On an average week day for me I’d get up at around 11am, if my girlfriend’s around she’ll make me the nicest egg and bacon sandwich but if she’s not I’ll usually opt for the standard marmite on toast and a cup of tea combination (which I think you just can’t go wrong with). After checking emails and keeping up to date with my sponsors etc. i’ll pop down to James, equipped with a chicken pasty in one hand and a can of coke in the other and have a good old chin wag with James, or maybe sometimes I’ll just sit in there and read the latest copy of sidewalk…

I’d say 9 times out of ten I’d go chill with my brother for a bit and beat his arse at Pro evo soccer, but right now he’s putting together his latest edit so I’m usually sat next to him advising on his editing skills etc. Then around 6pm we all jump into someone’s car and go hit up Devy Green for a few hours, usually in the evening time I’ll watch a film, go for a quiet beer somewhere with friends or just chill with my girlfriend.

We go talking about sponsors

Seems like every time I get this question my sponsors have completely changed, anyway, right now I’m riding for Barker Skateboards, DC Shoes and Apparel, Venture trucks, Travel wheels, Nixon watches, Slugger Skate Store, New Era and Object hardware.

And finally, what have you got planned for the near future?

Well I have a couple of trips coming up before Christmas with DC and Barker, then I’m planning on making the big move from Sheffield to London which is quite exciting. Obviously it’s going to be very different from my laid back life I’m used to in The Steel City but I’m really looking forward to it, so next year you’ll be seeing a lot more of me skating around London. To be honest it’s something I should have done a long time ago but hey better late than never.
