As a mom I'm allowed to brag, right? It's not often that your son gets his picture in a magazine, or at least not mine. Sure my kids have been in videos & even done some modeling for clothing & shoes (sorry a little more bragging but they were smaller & cuter then) but I think this is the first time that one of them was in a magazine doing something that they love! If you get the chance (stop by your local bookstore) check out June's issue of Skateboarder magazine (page 75 to be exact) & you will see Zak pulling a stalefish (some sort of air) on his skateboard while on tour with Jamey & some professional skateboarders late last year. In fact, if you flip a few pages back (to page 69) you will see that this particular article was written by none other than Jamey (both Jamey & Zak are in the picture at the beginning of the article). I'm proud of both Zak & Jamey - Zak for riding like a pro & Jamey for finally getting to fulfill the dream of writing an article in a magazine.... Can I say he's published? :o) Hopefully he will get many more opportunities, he did a great job.
Any hoo I hope you get the chance to check it out. It's always fun to see someone you know get props for doing something well, let alone something they love to do!

Woo hoo!! Congrats to both. Now I need to find me a copy of said magazine so I can see the photos & read the article.
I can't tell you how many stores that I have been to looking for that magazine. I have found the May issue of Skateboarder mag, and every OTHER skate mag's June issue. When we finally find it, we're buying a few and saving at least one for a keepsake. Also, I am going to scan the pix and put them on the blog. It's such a great accomplishment for both of them. We are all so proud of them!
How exciting.. i think you have every reason to brag.. Congrats to both of them
