[1] On August 19, 2013, the magazine's owner GrindMedia announced that the publication would cease production on October 15, 2013.

In August 1965 the title was changed to Skateboarder and the magazine began to be published bimonthly.

Already, there are storm clouds on the horizon with opponents of the sport talking about ban and restriction.

Another relaunch occurred in 1997, with an oversized special issue that guest-edited by Tony Hawk, with art direction by Jaimie Muehlhausen.

Publisher Norb Garrett stated: Unfortunately market conditions have forced us to have to make the difficult decision ... our Skateboarder team has worked incredibly hard producing a cutting-edge product that has been successful at reaching a larger audience online.
