SKI BUMMED
In regard to your Ice Burners arti-
cle (December '89). I think it is full
of shit. We "pole-clutching swivel-
neck ski-heads" can rip it up better
than any snowboarder ever will. We
skiers have been ripping it up before
snowboards were even on the draw
ing board. You say the air factor is
unreal, but can you compare it to the
cliff jumps of Scott Schmitt? If ski-
ing is such a mellow, laid-back sport,
where do you get people like Glenn
Plake and his three-foot Mohawk? 1
don't think you have any right to put
skiers down. I have never heard of
a snowboarder pulling out triple back
flips with four rotations. I don't see
how a sport that takes ten days to
master can even compare to the
amount of effort it takes to become
an average bump skier. I think you
should check out the skiing scene
before you knock it. I'm sick of hear-
ing skiing get put down by snow-
boarders. I don't think you have a
right to do it. They are our hills, and
If you can't treat us with respect, I
think you should get the hell off them.

skate: it makes me feel good. When
you play football you have the feeling
of taking out your sadist tendencies
on your opponent. When you skate
you have the feeling of taking out
your masochistic tendencies on your-
self. I enjoy the fealing of having a
whole team behind me when I play
football. I also enjoy the feeling of
skating to please myself. I hope my
letter reaches through your mail pail
so that it can display the message
of "Live your life to the fullest."

NO FANG YOU

Listen, a large amount of people
are tired of your crap. There's no
such thing as a vampire! Compared

You suck too, but we printed your people are dung-on-the-lawn. I hate

DIMPLETONS
There are some skaters that we
hate. We call them the Dimple Butts
because all they do is sit on their
asses all day and get dimples from
the grip tape. We hate them because
they think they're bad, but they're
really posers. They live where all the
bums live, including them. Their
cousins are rejects. One has buck
teeth and the other has connect-the-
dots on his face. We don't skate with
them anymore because if we did, we
would get dimples.

The sad thing is, they were probably
out skating while you were writing this
whining letter Ted
OPEN MIND KIND
You may take this with as many
grains of salt as you wish. I am a
thirteen-year-old open-minded per-
son who skateboards. This year I
decided to play football hoping that
it would be fun. After 11 games and
65 practices our season ended in the
semi-finals. I found that the reason
I play football is the same reason I
to say it, children, but you should be
the scared ones. When you die you'l
have a one-way ticket to downtown.
Why don't you try being nice guys
before some pissed-off revolutionary
beats your sick brains out? Damn
you. Do something for this world.
People like you make the world
suckier. People like myself help it.
We're the ones who are going to take
over. Have a nice day.

JAZZ PEST PROTEST
I'm writing about the kid who was
complaining about the jazz festival
in Friday Harbor. Hey, my dad plays
at that festival! They may be a bunch
of cowboy shit-kicker wannabes, but
they also get paid a lot! So, I'd rather
have a couple of poseurs complain
than not get new gear!
