**An ode to the East Bay skate scene packed with never-before-seen photos and thoughtful words from author and outdoorsman, Jeff Johnson**
Between his work for Roark, Yeti, Patagonia, St. Archer Brewing, and Leica, chances are, you’ve seen Jeff’s work in magazines, books, online, or on the big screen—and chances are higher that you had to pick up your jaw off the ground afterwards. In short, Jeff’s the kinda guy that everyone at HB aspires to be—skilled skater and surfer, superb climber and fisherman, and inspirational writer, photographer, and filmmaker. We get a special peek behind the making of who Jeff Johnson really is and the culture that shaped him with his latest book.
*Way High Kick Turn* is his personal tribute to the East Bay skate scene that raised him to be the anti-establishment, underground renaissance man that you see today. Page after page of archived skate film is brought back to life, allowing you to relive the experiences that Jeff and his skate buds managed to survive in the ‘70s and ‘80s. These are words, moments, and memories of a freedom-laced era that were previously forgotten.
