*contains a rude word

So… I wasn’t quite sure what was going to happen when I sneaked up on Ben Skinner with the latest Carve, but fair to say I didn’t quite expect…. this. Obviously Ben is pretty stoked…

It is Ben’s first ever cover, and probably the best water shot we have seen of Porthleven. The shot is by Cornish photographer Mike Lacey. So congratulations to him too. Shaka’s all round!

Carve is on sale through WH Smiths, WH Smiths Travel, Tesco and all the usual newsagents in time for the Easter weekend. More info on the issue here.
