Declaration of Independents. Skateboarding, Snowboarding and Music - An Intersection of Cultures. By John Baccigaluppi, Sonny Mayugba, Chris Carnel, "Heckler Magazine"

The editors of Heckler magazine have assembled hundreds of photographs, copious interviews, and profiles of the most infamous, and not-so infamous, figures in skateboarding, snowboarding, and music of the eighties and nineties in a book that documents the formation of an independent era. Heckler magazine is the mouthpiece for a thriving subculture of skateboarders, snowboarders, and music fans - a proud and incredibly active youth culture that continues to grow but whose formative independent era is ending. From the humble days of suburban leisure activities and punk rock for bored youth to the advent of "alternative" rock and professional sponsorships for board youth, Declaration of Independents: Skateboarding, Snowboarding and Music: An Intersection of Cultures charts the history of this movement close-up, with the people who made it all happen. John Baccigaluppal, Sonny Mayugba, and Chris Camel have produced Heckler since the early 1990s, experiencing and observing the upheavals that the decade has wrought. Declaration of Independents puts their years of front-line writing and photography together in one master document of the forces that will continue to shape youth culture for years to come.
