KooK2

June 23, 2011 | Words By: Howard

Dan Crockett’s independent publication makes a second round of fabulousness.


Once a year we put the word out for people to submit art, illustration, writing and their alternative take on surfing culture. We mix it up and print on paper from sustainable forests using vegetable inks. The result is the KooK - a 24-page surfing newspaper featuring contributions from all over the surfing globe. KooK2 just launched, with copies being sent out 1st July. You can buy K2 exclusively online from thisrichtapestry.blogspot.com
