Push: J. Grant Brittain - '80s Skateboarding Photography

Grant is THE photographer of the post 70's rebirth, so many utterly iconic images...mesmerising.

if you don't know J.Grant Brittain, but you are into skateboarding, you surely will know some of his classic images. They are among the most famous photographs in all of skateboarding history, and they are also some of the finest examples of action photography you will ever see. No digital here, all film. No way to check he had the shot, he had to make sure he had it as he fired the shutter. Grant is one of the true masters of skateboard photography and this book is essential for anyone who loves skateboarding, and a must have for the collection of all action photographers. THIS is how it is done.

Book looks great. But Amazon delivered it to the wrong house, did not take any photo evidence but claimed it was handed to resident. Eventually the problem was sorted the next day by myself and a neighbour.

If you know you know

So many iconic images I remember from the skate mags back in the day.Such a beautiful book. An essential purchase for anyone who was part of the skate scene in the 80s.

Is pitty to see the work of Grant's print is such cheap quality paper, I'm sure it wasn't his choice but a publisher's choice.I wait for years for this book and with high expectations, I cannot believe GinkoPress did a cheap quality job...The bottom line is, the photos are amazing, the book is a cheap job... pitty... anyway buy it... you have no choices.
