Barely made it (Photobook)
An inside story about the heady years snowboarding by Patrick Armbruster
This limited photobook showcases some of the most iconic snowboarders - behind the scenes and on the snow. Barely made it takes you through a visual journey from when the half pipes were still dug by hand to the biggest competitions snowboard yet has seen. The time when snowboarding became popular, the riders were idealized to rock stars and the events became pilgrimage sites for the fans.
The book is filled with statements from all the riders with a foreword by Drew Stevenson (former editor in chief of Onboard magazine & Methodmag / founder of TTR). This book is a contemporary document of snowboarding during the 90's and early 00's.
