came driving quietly down into the
parking area toward us. We didn't
even notice. Before you could say
"shut up and skate," there was a
massive chaos of blue blinks, loud
horns, confused undertakers and
running (like hell) skaters. So if one
of you guys feels like skating an
underground parking lot, check for
cameras and spray 'em black.
because you don't want to end up like
us. We have a $200 fine to pay. Skate
to destroy but look out for Big Brother

Golly, I just wanted to tell you how
much the interview with Mike Muir
dominated. I never cared much for
Suicidal Tendencies before, but I
think they'll be glad to know they
have a new, devout fan.

I hated your cover with Mike Muir.
Is Kevin Thatcher still the editor? Or
did you get that David Morin from
Action Now? Skate rad, poseurs!

In the May '87 issue Potato Head
was quoted as saying, "Women in
men's clothing aren't women at all."
Is he saying that the clothing makes
the man, or women in this case?
Well, if this applies to him too, then
he sure as hell isn't much of a man!

I saw a story about Tony Hawk on
the tube. They showed a wall in his
room that was covered with his old
board models. I saw a deck that
looked rad. A couple of months ago
I rode an old Caballero which was
really cool. My point is, where can I
Dear
get old models? Many companies
made some really rippin' boards I
can't find anywhere. Do they (com
panies) even make old models? Are
there any left?

As a rule, yesterday's boards quickly
become obsolete when the new
shipments arrive. However, ask your
local retailer or write to some of the
large distribs. for more info.T-ed
FEMALE'S TALE
When I first started skating, there
weren't many chicks like me out
there. Well, a couple years later I see
girls skating, kicking ass, and finally
showing their stuff. I visit the Del Mar
Skate Ranch now and then, and
although there are only a few girls
there, we still get cheered on by the
guys. Come on, girls. Quit the ballet
shit and skate, skate, skate!

Keep at it girls, you're closing in on

My sistah, she's suing me 'cuz!
left my skateboard at the bottom of
the stairs and she slipped and
cracked her noggin. She slipped into
a coma yesterday, right afta she told
me she's gonna sue me. I think I'll
unplug her before she wakes up.
Thanks for listening.

How about this? My mom is totals
against me skating. I can't skate with
my friends on my ramp unless my
mom is home. But her boss at work
skates, and he told her to loosen up.
He came over and skated. My mom
was so pissed, I loved it.

Next problem, mom takes up skating.
