Swimmer's Ear is a skateboarding, snowboarding and music magazine from Minneapolis.Here is what TWSnow had to say about Swimmer's Ear:"...Swimmer's Ear hypes up the scene in Minnesota, and not only does this little low-budget mag celebrate the brotherhood among Midwest snowboarders and skateboarders, it also gets across the goodwill fostered between all local scenes. SE has great photos-now all it needs is a high-octane color printer to do itself justice." -Jennifer Sherowski, Nov 2003
