The 2011 Slam Photo Annual puts the spotlight firmly on Australian skateboarding’s finest moments, celebrating the skaters and photographers who made the year memorable. This issue is packed with more than 50 standout images—each one not just a trick caught in motion, but a moment frozen in time, complete with personal stories from the photographers who captured them. It’s a mix of raw street sessions, wild spots, and some picture-perfect landscapes that add an extra dimension to the action.
In a sign of the times, Slam took a leap into the digital age with this one, creating a dedicated iPad version of the Photo Annual. But for those who love holding the magazine in their hands, the print edition remained the main event—delivering all the artistry and energy on the page, the way skate photography has always deserved to be seen.
Ultimately, this Photo Annual is a celebration of progression—on the board and behind the lens. From rugged bowls to hidden alleyways, the images in this issue showcase Australian skating not just keeping pace with the global scene but pushing it forward in its own unique way.
