From The Editor: Digging Deep in 2011

6 AM Myspace shot in Bishop

As 2010 draws to a close, we demeanour behind during a prior 12 months during Matador Sports.

I wrote Matador Sports 2009 end-of-year summary during a small wooden desk in my room in Villa Crespo, Buenos Aires. we had joined Matador as Sports initial editor which June; in 6 months, we had left from frantically cobbling together content by myself to working with a gifted group of interns, associate editors, as well as contributors. Matador Sports had evolved from a networks baby blog to a beautiful, inventive site which we still think is among a strongest sports mags online.

One year later, Matador Sports is still evolving. Besides yours truly as well as Lindi Horton, mSports first-ever intern, weve had a couple of gifted people stick upon a team: Morgan Leahy deBoer, a San Francisco-based transport bard as well as one of a many consistently cooperative people Ive ever worked with, as well as Benita Hussain, a multitalented writer, surfer, yogi, as well as sometimes-lawyer from New York.

Meanwhile, weve put up some of a strongest essay yet. We sat in upon a climbing film shoot as well as interviewed Gulf Coast surfers as well as anglers in a arise of a BP oil spill; we hopped in to a fighting ring in Thailand as well as schooled how to use yoga to climb, ski, as well as bike better.

In 2011, well be digging even deeper as well as exploring brand new ways of moving as well as writing. As always, we goal youll come along for a ride, either as a contributor or a reader of Matador Sports.
