ON THE COVER: "After I shot this photo, I told Neen that he should use this heelflip as a silhouette trademark. Like the Michael Jordan slam dunk icon. That heelflip is gold right there." These were Seu Trinh's words as he dropped off his photos from his recent NYC trip with Supra. We couldn't have said it any better.
