BROKEN DOWN
I live around the San Fernando
Valley in Northridge, and the only
decent place to skate near my
house was fubared by the quake.
It isn't even rideable anymore. Do
you think that this is part of a gov-
ernment plot to ruin all the good
spots, or do you think that God
just hates California?

Just look around bro, the quake
made more spots than it broke.
NO FRIENDS
Mario Van Peebles' article on
"How to Form a Posse" in the
August issue said, "Skating with
your bros makes each day worth
living. I couldn't agree more. The
problem is, my bros have all quit.
Skating is one of the best things
that has ever happened to me and
I don't want to quit, but skating by
yourself sucks. I'm alone and 1
don't know what to do.

Try and find some real skaters.
CLEAN GANG
I live in a small town with bout
five skaters. We session at a radi
bank office and turned all the shit
black with wax. A few days ago
some dickhead came out yelling
about how we had to clean it up
or he was going to call the pigs.
and press charges. What takes.
wax, soap and truck metal off of
heavily-skated curbs?

My mom is messed up in the
head. She listens in on my conver-
sations to see if I'm dealing drugs.
What should I do about her?

Tell all your friends how cool she
is and it's over.
HAIR CARE
If you have dreads, how do you
get them out?
