Birth Month/Year Skate Mag Covers

I looked up that Lady In Red was number 1 when I was born. I’ll take that.

No idea who was on the cover unless it’s Nicky Guerrero, but this photo looks sick.

Crazy the advance in skating in a few years , the cover saying “did he make it”
If only they knew what was to come …

Ok, there are BMXers and a rollerskater on the cover and I know Cab puts strawberries on salad but at least there’s no Gator. July 1987 issue of RAD:

I too am shocked to hear that you were born in the 1980s

Pretty sure he’s in his 50’s and was giving Tomgnarcore an alternative cover

Nah he’s offering an alternative to that Gator cover.

edit: Yes, that.

Yeah, I guess it wasn’t too clear - just offering up a Gator free cover. By the time that RAD/ Action Bike issue came out I’d left school and it was a decade since my first memorable slam following an ill advised hillbomb on a borrowed Surf Flyer :joy:
