DOWN TIME
I'm a thirteen year old skater who
can't drop in. One day I tried and fell
on my ass. I got so pissed I threw
my skate through my friend's win-
dow. Then my mom took my skate.
Now I don't have a
chance in hell to
learn to drop in.
A while ago I went
to Bricktown Skatepark
and tried to drop in on a
twelve foot vert ramp
and fucked up real bad.
Everybody was laugh-
ing and I got really
pissed off. I threw my
skate and hit some kid
in the leg and got
kicked out. Will I ever
learn to drop in? My
attitude is throwing
my chances away.

HARDLY DAVIDSON
Yeah, okay, skating is real cool,
very fun and was part of my young
life. I'd like to say this though, "Fuck
your 'zine and everything about
skating." I'm sitting in Arizona
State Prison for two years because
of it. When I get out, you'll see me
on a big Harley running your little
skinny toothpick, bony asses over
in the gutters! I wasted my whole

ODD GOD
This is to Erik "Free
Dumb" in the March
'93 issue: You must be
some jock faggot who
wouldn't know the
"ultimate" challenge
if it kicked him in the
balls, if you have any.
You can't judge style.
The Olympics would
just make skateboard-
ing normal. Your letter
makes me sick, and
as for the bad name,
who gives a shit? From what you
wrote, you want us all to be preppy.
Republican clones. Skateboarding is
about the individual. I'm only four-
teen, but I know that you sound like
some concerned, paranoid mother.
Leave skateboarding alone. If you
want to help, then go back to foot-
ball or shut up. Oh yeah, and one
more thing, I'm God.

DRUG TEST
Today I found out my grandmoth
er digs through my shit. I think she
does it a lot since she found pot
growing on the windowsill. So I
wrote "LSD" on a sandwich bag and
put some pills in it. I also dried some
clover leaves and put them in a
bag. I wrote "Pot" on it and then put
both bags in my drawer.

READ ON
A weird thing happened
the other day. I went to the
local 7-11 to purchase a
Slurpee and look at the
new issue of Juggs, the
mag with the biggest
hooters around. Suddenly,
Mr. Abdul-Kajeeb-Ingol
Kiy, the manager, hit me in
the back of the head with a
can of beef jerky and then yelled
something about no magazine look
ing. I told him to suck it and he hit
me in the stomach. I was pissed so I
threw my Slurpee and hit him in the
head with my board and knocked
him unconscious. All of a sudden, his
partner comes out and grabs me
and calls the cops. My mom bailed
me out, but I'm grounded for 364
more days. Tell me what to do.
