While I was at the Van Doren Invitational last week I got some info on the sly that this issue of Pacific San Diego Magazine with Amelia Brodka on the cover was coming out soon and I couldn't wait to see it. For me, knowing that a female skater is getting a cover or a pictorial in a magazine is like Christmas, as these things are to far and few in between.

I have to say it didn't dissapoint. Photographer Dan  Sparagna, who has been shooting with Amelia a lot over the past year, really killed it with these images.  Congrats to both Amelia & Dan!
