WISH LIST

Will you
I would like to request Jeremy
Wray in an upcoming issue. I own
the Plan B SHS Video and Jeremy's
part is the shit: 360 off of the
Carlsbad gap, frontside 180 flip
the same gap, a huge kickflip at
Santa Rosa and all kinds of other
big tech stunts. Jeremy is a total
role model to me in that he gradu
ated from high school with straight
As and has become the raddest.
baddest skater in the universe.
Thanks for the two pictures of
Wray in the September '95 issue in
the table of contents section.

My name is Seth Penery and I'm
ten years old and I really like your
magazine, but there are some
inappropriate things like cuss
words in it. It would be nice if you
took those out. When you get that
done, send me a magazine so
could see it before I buy it.

SECOND HELPING
About a month ago, I was sit-
ting in a local diner, reading the
latest issue of your magazine when
this waiter comes up to me and
starts talking to me about skate-
boarding. After about twenty
minutes or so, he tells me how he
personally knows Fred Gall! He
then starts telling me about how
he always used to skate around
with Fred. Then he tells me that
Fred stops in the diner every once
in a while, and that Fred is going
to be there next week on his vaca-
tion. But then the next week when
I went, the waiter told me that
Fred had called and said that he
RO
wouldn't make it because of rea-
sons beyond his control.

INSIDE SCOOP
What's up with all these parents
talking about porno in Thrasher? I
have a subscription and I haven't
seen any. From now on, could you
guys list any naked chicks in the
contents? I mean, I've seen more
pornography walking around
downtown, and the city I live in
sucks. Anyway, what does it mat-
ter? You're just scared that after
your son saw the butt of the lead
singer of the Cows, he'd turn gay.
One more thing, cancel your son's
subscription but stop writing those
stupid ass letters. They bother me.

I am sublimely fond of your
magazine except for its sexist con-
tent towards women. Women are
presented more as tools, objects,
ultramasculine, virile collateral.
I am a female skater, and I find
some of your ads as well as read-
ing content to be demeritorious. I
am especially disgusted with your
"Poot" ads. They (the items of
clothing) are nothing more than
too-tight, overpriced, trendy
pieces of shit. I always see girls
hang out at the Sea-Skate (in
Seattle), wearing those Poot-
inspired clothing articles. They
don't even skate.

LESSON ZERO
I recently took a trip to Stone
Edge Skatepark in Daytona Beach.
The day before we went home, I
