SSB Loves Stunts... want coverage?
Rumors have been flying and it's time to set the record straight.
Aaron Frank has been reassigned to Motorcyclist Magazine to breath some new life into our sister Magazine.
Big Dave Sonsky has left 2Wheel Tuner Magazine and is now the Editor of Super Streetbike. Dave's first issue is the March 2007 issue set to hit the stands in a few months.
I am still the Associate Editor of SSB.
The magazine is going to go through some changes and yes, there will be coverage of Custom Bikes, Race Bikes and lifestyle coverage that includes stunts.
We need your help. Let us know what's going on in your local area. The section "Scene" is going to be dedicated to the underground scene across the country. We need help letting us know what's going on across the country. This doesn't mean a 2 person show for the local oil change, but if you have a event or story let us know. You can contact us at ssbmail@primedia.com.
We will still cover the Major Events as always including Stuntwars, XDLs, Starboyz Stuntfest etc. Let us know about these too. People sometimes assume we know about all the major stuff, but we are pretty slammed over here and we can use kindly reminders. Let us know at:
ssbmail@primedia.com
**Personal opinion*** The stunt game is separating. There are those that want to make it their living and be professional stunt riders. The room for this crowd is a select few and the key word is professional. The underground scene will live on forever. We will do our best not to forget where it came from.
You have a few individuals in your corner against a industry that still doesn't fully understand what it is we do. But just know we do our best to help the scene grow.

Re: SSB Loves Stunts... want coverage?
You know that's a interesting comment. I would like to hear why you said that to be honest.
Ricky Gadson is in almost every issue including March 07, Jason Britton is in the Feb issue, DJGQ is one of my best friends and is in nearly every west coast thing I do. Mike Seate has his own column.
IMO to say SSB doesn’t like black people just isn’t true. I’m really really brown. I'm 100% Hispanic.
That’s a debate I don’t want to get into on a message board. I REALLY hate message boards. 600 post in 4 years should be evident of that. Things are easily taken out of context.

Re: SSB Loves Stunts... want coverage?
Why are you traveling all the SW states?
Who's going to be there?
Do you have a Photographer that can take magazine quality photos?
What's the story behind it?
send it to ssbmail@primedia.com
It sound like a excuse but we are truely SWAMPED over here and timing is everything. We may not even read the e-mail for a month or two, but then when we have our planning meeting, we go thru the e-mails to look for ideas. Make sense?
Super Streetbike is being looked at closely by people high up in Primedia as the next big thing. We (meaning staff, photographers, writers, riders, everyone) need to step up the professionalism across the board.
