Victory Journal #5 takes a simple theme—Water—to unexpected territory from Jamie Brisick’s wonderfully personal profile of one-eyed, surfing visionary Derek Hynd to Mickey Duzyj's illustrated history of Orlando “El Duque” Hernandez’s perilous escape from Castro’s Cuba. Add Chadwick Tyler's swimsuit issue with no swimsuits (featuring models Ali Michael and Julia Hafstrom in Florida's wild marshlands), Anthony Blasko's tight-cropped portfolio of cliffdiver's frozen against the Boston sky and Kanoa Zimmerman's undersea black and whites and you get Victory's most ambitious issue to date—a unique portrait of the sporting life aquatic.
