Click the image to open in full size.After four long years, Big Brother is back. Owned by Big Brother Alumni Jeff Tremaine’s Jackassworld.com, skateboarding’s rawest magazine will now exist in digital format.
Archival nerds who never got around to complete their collections can rest easy now, part of the plan is to place the old print mags—there are more than 100—online.
“Right now the plan is that Big Brother will be a section of Jackassworld,” says Tremaine. “We’re going to put up all the back issues and anything we do skateboarding-related will be housed there as well.”
New content for Big Brother will focus mostly on skateboarding, and most, if not all of the O.G. Big Brother lineup are lined up to contribute, including Dave Carnie, Sean Cliver, Rick Kosick, Dimitry Elyashkevich, Earl Parker, and Tremaine himself. “Hopefully Marc McKee and everyone else from the original crew will start contributing,” says Tremaine.
Big Brother served a vital role in the industry. It was part skateboarding, part comedy, and part social commentary, pointing out the many foibles of our industry and generally toeing the line of what’s considered “decent.” In many ways, it epitomized the very “skate” mentality of seeing just how far you could push things before they blew up. The mag, which many concerned parents viewed as a gateway drug to pornography and debauchery, was purchased by Hustler’s Larry Flynt Publications in 1997, ironically toned down, and closed down in 2004.

I bought a Big Brother once on a business trip, at the airport. I read it during the flight. When I got off of the plane, I threw it in the trashcan. This was way before Concrete Wave and ILB. It was during the later 90's, when I was out of touch with the market, from the aspect of media, but I was still hitting the occasional ditch and driveway freestyle.

Its interesting that they are going to focus on skateboarding. What a FREAKIN' novel concept. the typical reader of BB is going to be a cross-over from the thrasher/TWS/Skateboarder/etc that is unhappy with the fashion marketing and non-focus on skateboarding. I had always thought that Thrasher needed to lead the way, However, the new BB may be just the tool to get things moving in the skateboarding direction, from the mainstream side. Based on the write-up of them focusing on skateboarding this time, I will definitely give them a try once everything hits the road.
