Of course we made covers for our internet-magazine. Many people asked us about that so we decieded to put some of them in here so you can take a look at it. Maby you'll like it, maby you wont, main thing is you have fun to look at our first attemps of creating covers.

In this issue of BigBoy we talked a lot about element. We'd never expect so many different views. So we talked with 10 different people and put their comments in the magazine. Of course we talked with more people in first place. We talked with them on the streets and made some interviews. At the end we talked with 30 people I guess. But this was to many to put it in a magazine. So we decieded to sort out.
The subject "Bam Margera getting married" was a big deal for everyone who loved jackass. So we had to write a report about it. All we knew so far was that he getting married...so that was kinda problem for us. No one could say something about that because we didn't know more about that as anyone else. Luckly a good friend from the U.S. knew more about that because everything happens their earlier than in germany. So he told us everything he knew and we had our report.
Markus had the fantastic idea to make a special interview with our little girly-midget. We all thought that would be a great way to make our ordiance laugh so we agreed. And it was a whole lot of fun! Jacky started a hughe waterfight with Basti and tattered the complete studio. When she sats in her chair with her wet hair and her more wet clothes she actually made a good interview and so we've got what we wanted.
This issue of BigBoy was clicked most. So thank you guys for viewing our magazine!

This one was very successful too. I was right before a big skatesession and we did the only thing right and ask Pro-Skaters about their fears. We got great feedback about that. Most thing we were wondered about was the fact that no skater paused before telling us about his big fears on the board. It made it a lot easier for us.
We wrote about the most scariest and dangerous fence at skatesessions: THE LOOP. It was kinda big deal for us because some guys from our team tryed the loop a few days before we wrote this report and got really hurt. Its a very dangerous ramp and every skater admited their fear to this fence.
Of course we had to write about Tim O'Connor after we put his photo on our cover. But it was really hard to tell you guys something about him you don't know so far. But we just write about his skatetricks and his highest jump and stuff like that.
This issue was almost that successful as the first one.

Poorly we had to make a decision. Jacky just joined us and she dragged us to make a report about Jackass-the movie. We weren't so sure if that is really that good idea to put in our magazine but it absolutely was! The fanpages were exploding so we decieded to give it a chance and made a big special about Jackass.
On the skatesession that year a skater and good friend of us had a bad accident and had to go to the hosptal. We wrote about that and after it was written we brought him a copy to the hospital.
At that time we just had a big photo-shoot. Many people came by and want to get in our magazine. We had so much fun that day. Jacky was the first day at our office and she really came trough. She laughed a lot and after the photos were taken she stayed and helped to process the photos on the computer. At the end we found our favourite guy and we put him on the special site. Special thanks to him at this point!

This issue is the last of 2007. The picture we choose was great and in a good quality. We ask skaters again about the worst ramps they ever had to overcome. They were again very open and told us everything we wanted to know.
The Skateboard-ckeck was an idea from nowhere. Everyone was excited about the summer and talked about their boards and how they gonna prime them. So the idea was born and we tryed to make a report of that. It worked out pretty good and after three days the report was "ready for take-off".
At that time we really went to Florida to visit a speicial skatesession. A friend from the U.S. told us about it and he was skating there too so we had to get there. The session was great and we got some really cool interviews with the skaters.
The first and only

Make youself ready to be proud, because that is the first front-logo and our name-giver for our magazine. Yes, basicly we have to thank Johnny Knoxville because this picture of him gave the magazine the name "BigBoy". Actually it said "strong boy" under the picture but we worked it out for us a little.
This picture means a lot to us so we put it on the frontpage everytime we can. Its like a tradition for us and for some devoted fans. So we are not about to stop with that.
By the way, if you want the first issue of our magazine you have to write to our bigboys-office. The adresss will be on the contact-side as soon as we can put it in there. Probably it is already there...
Good morning beautiful...

So this is kinda gnarly, isn't it? We put this disgusting picture on one of our last issues and it really shaked the people up! We got in much trouble because of that. Some people thought it was hilarious, some people just said: "You guys are so disgusting!", and other people really wanted to sued us.
Of course we were pretty surprised about all this excitement but we weren't on the point of taking this picture out of the magazine.
But when some people sent us some caveats we had to take this out.
But look what we just did: aaaand taddaaaaaa! Here it is, our lovely "good morning!"-picture.
Sure, it is kinda risky to put this in here too but, hey, what can you do when you're working for such idiots!?

Jacky and Johnny...what a sweet couple
posted by: Markus
Aren't they sweet? We create this picture when we found this photo of Jacky sitting in a bar and waiting for some action. It remined us so much at this picture of Johnny so we decieded to make a little special for our magazine and for our other website.
Well, we don't know where excactly Johnny was when his picture was taken but thats not so important.
We didn't ask Jacky if we can put this in here (actually she don't know we made this picture of her and Knoxville!) so she will find out in the next week.
This is for you lil chick!

This was a special we did for some issues of the magazine. And it really went down well. We got so many mails for that of people who were asking for more of these. And actually we made a lot more of those pictures but most of them were in a bad quality or they were just not so good with this sentence.
This one with Knoxville is one of those I liked most! Its just perfect quality and the colour of the sentence fitting in there so good.
People still ask us about more and we will make more of these but right now our office is almost empty so wait till september when everyone will come back.

This was the second pic we put on our magazine. And again it is Knoxville who made this possible for us. And thats actually kinda simple to explain why he made the pictures so perfect: he is just one of those guys who really are into Jackass and who really did/do horrible stuff. Some people do feel bad for him and thats why he fits perfect into this.
This was after the "RollingStone-Cover shoot" when he got shot by paintballs. Its one of the most popular stunts and thats the reason why we took this picture for our special. Thanks again Johnny!
