Author: Joe Layden

"No Limits" is a great book/magazine for snowboarding fans.
It contains articles on hot boarders like Ross Powers, Terje Haakonsen,
Shannon Dunn, Shaun White, Keir Dillon, and Victoria Jealouse. However,
I am not a snowboarding fanatic, and so I found the commentary tedious
and long. On the other hand, the photographs are wonderful, which is a
blessing in itself. I liked the absolutely, positively grand picture of
a snowboarder shown in a series
of photos doing a 360, catching big air.
I'd recommend "No Limits" for kids of any age who live for snowboarding, but read it in the summer when there's no snow. In the winter, get out on the slopes! (April, 2003)
