Closer Skateboarding Magazine Issue 8 Jahmal Williams Back Cover

You should know by now that Closer Skate Mag never do things by halves so of course they've doubled down on the covers once again to give you maximum bang for your buck. On the front, we've got the most colour-coordinated man in skateboarding, Tom Karangelov, who brings the Skittles vibes with a rainbow-coloured rainbow rail ride in Anaheim, California, shot by Closer's head honcho, Jaime Owens. Alternatively, Jahmal Williams brings that textbook East Coast gloominess with a night-time pivot fakie on a New York manhole cover, shot by Cole Giordano.
