So what would you like for the holidays? The power to leave spots destroyed in your wake? A skate trip to Greece? Some solid Brazilian tech? Unparalleled Switchstance ability? A hamster? Some unique spots? Clean style that gets more refined with age? Forget about Santa and blow out the menorah, 'cause 411's bringing the treats this year with 411 14-4, available November 21st! Art Director Bob Kronbauer sprinkles his creative dust and gives this issue a look and feel that stands out from the rest. Okay, who wished for the hamster?

Openers will get your heart racing and the adrenalin pumping, followed by an amazing Chaos that features Danny Garcia, Chris Haslam, Dennis Busenitz, Devine Calloway, and Kenny Anderson! These two parts alone will get you hyped to go out and skate!

Robert Lopez, from Puerto Rico, is one skate machine that doesn't have an off switch. Put anything in his way and he'll annihilate it. Big gaps? Crazy rails? It doesn't matter! Robert skates like angry Silverback gorilla with the power to bulldoze anything that stands in his path. 14-4 brings you a full part that's not suitable for the weak-willed.

The Planet Earth skate crew went on a trip to Greece for some homemade Gyros and Pita Bread, and instead came back with a full skate part featuring Nate Broussard, Steve Nesser, and Jon Newport. Get ready to smash some plates on your head!

What's young, Brazilian and rips? Why, it's Danny Cerezini of course! Currently holding it down in the OC, this up-and-coming Am is throwing it down all over the place, and making it look too easy while he's at it! This smooth part from Danny will sure open your eyes!

What's a synonym for Switchstance? Andre Genovesi! Recently added to the Hosoi Skates Pro roster, 411's got the debut pro part with the master of switch himself! This guy takes a licking and keeps on ticking! Also featuring Christian Hosoi, Daniel Cardone and Richard Mulder, you won't want to miss this!

Daewon Song, Daniel Castillo, Zered Bassett, Chico Brenes and Torey Pudwill spent two weeks touring Mexico and Costa Rica, eating some good authentic cuisine and shredding up some unique spots. Did you see that line up? Yeah, this Chupa Cabra Tour is on point!

To wrap everything up, 14-4 brings you Chico Brenes, the Nicaraguan-turned-SF-native whose ability to push should be a trick in S.K.A.T.E. Also featuring Mike Carroll, Daewon Song, Rick Howard, Danny Castillo, and Jeron Wilson, nobody comes with cleaner lines than this man, and 14-4's got a full part to back it.

14-4 did some last minute looking around and was able to snag these Special Features just in time for the holidays: The Pro-Tec Pool Party featuring Chris Miller, Omar Hassan and Jeff Grosso; the Vans Downtown Showdown featuring Josh Harmony, Rick McCrank, Corey Duffel and Nick Dompierre; and the Slam Trick Contest featuring Andre Genovesi, Chris Pfanner and Tony Magnusson (!) that went down in Ravenna, Italy.

In addition to the great articles, 411 14-4's features an interactive product guide as well as a magazine supplement with beautiful color photos and interviews with the featured skaters. Be sure to put 411 14-4 on the top of your Holiday wish list!
