OK, maybe I'm being a bit hard but...
I used to contribute to RAD, later Sidewalk, Snowboard UK, White lines, Ride and have published my own national mag...
About four years ago I tried to set up a UK Wakeboard mag, I had writers (pros of the time), photographers (both here and in the states) experience and a plan!
Nobody wanted to know... whats Wakeboarding? Advertise? Not a chance. Backing of UK Distributors... sorry we do'nt make enough money to help!
(and we don't really give a toss about the sport, just making the money..)
I know why I'm a bit hard, I KNOW I could have done it better, that why.
I feel the sport is getting short changed, again.
