'Full Bleed: New York City Skateboarding' is a photography book that gives the reader a comprehensive look at the stakeboarding scene in the Big Apple. The book spans over 30 years and employs the work of 40 photographers.
'Full Bleed: New York City Skateboarding' is a must for skaters and photography fans alike. There are tons of great shots that explain why skating in NYC is unlike skating anywhere else. My personal favorite is the image of a boarder flying high above a half-pipe with the World Trade Center towers in the background.
