Movement Mag issue 33 is now available. It’s got 2 different covers, sick content and great features, as usual…
Excerpt from the Movement Mag website:
When two images from the one wave emerge as the two best shots for an issue, eventually printing as double covers, you’d think the featured rider in said images would mark this as the happiest week of their life. For Michael Novy, though, that news came days after he broke his back surfing on the Central Coast. It’s the sweet and sour of life that makes you believe in more than just coincidence.
The meat in this meal consists of a profile of Mitch Rawlins, an Indo discovery with BP, the south coast chopper shoot that supplied the covers and an evolutionary guide to the world’s best boards.
It is an interesting juncture in the life of Mitch Rawlins. Walking away from a weighty contract and stable life to launch his own board brand will surely make a list of highlights when his eyes roll back one last time and his life flashes before his eyes.
For a week BP and friends drove through remotest Indo in search of a wave they’d only seen on a shaky YouTube clip. While they failed to find the wave firing to its obvious potential they enjoyed a holiday in the unlikeliest of locations.
Boards are most important to the act of bodyboarding. Professional riders understand the important of a tailored template and in this feature they discuss the refinements their boards have undergone to reach their current look.
And so back to Novy, the chopper and that one wave. The full sequence is inside the magazine.
