Introducing Stab Issue #88, Starring Mikey Wright

Tasteful exploitation and the hot death of youth!

We sure get our kicks from things that look good. Don’t you? Like, exquisitely-crafted surf trunks, or a French vision drenched in morning light, or a foam composition that sings. Thus, it is fun, innuendo and good taste which comprise the style portion of Stab Issue #88.

The trajectory of Mikey Wright is one Stab has observed with interest for some time. Recoiling from the shadow of his older brother and sis, Mike aggressively cleaved a different path for himself by way of hacking a mullet into his head, and dispensing with any half measures when it comes to surfing. Deeper, harder, faster, higher, thanks. This, coupled with his love of churning through gasoline and tyre rubber, mark the tipping of Mikey into adulthood. Stab draped him in a boxing gown and our new Quiksilver joint trunks – of which we’re unashamedly proud – and burned into a Sydney industrial estate to capture Mikey’s impression. We discussed the man he’s become, and his concise answers befit his attitude of realness and stoney glare. Buy Stab issue #88, on shelves now, and step into Mikey’s smoke! Is it 5pm yet?
