PRISON TIME
I was very disturbed by
your "Skater of the Year"
article It says that Mark
Gator Anthony was 1996
fingerboard champion. I fail
to believe this "fact I am a
fingerboarding demon with a list
of tricks more impressive than
your mom's tits Kickflips, impossi
bles, slides, and grinds of every
style. Huge olfies
all with only two
fingers, no
cheatin'. If Gator
wants to go at it,

case, smokes and

stupid First of all, there are not
girl skaters who deserve to grace
the pages of Thrasher. Plus, who
wants to look at them instead of
the guys, anyway? OK, enough of

Go rob a bank and get caught, that's
the only way to hang with Gator Tied
GOOD GIRL
I was sitting in my room, reading
your magazine, thinking it would
be neat to write you. Yes, I'm a girl.
but I'm not freaking out about no
girl skaters in your mag These
girls that write in and say they
want to see more girl skaters are

Dosent go beyond that
hick town with

to cruise
through the
mall in their
neon-decorat-

trucks. They
yell and spitt
and cuss, but we move on and for-
get about it. One day when the sky
is blue and the sun is shining.
there'll be a revolution, and no
more will they say, "Hey, girl Why
don't you use all that young girl
energy in the back of my ET
Camino instead of on that piece of
wood? Oh, and you know what
else bothers me about this town?
Since I started skating, all the kids
in school treat me weird. The
guys are freaked out, and the girls
think it's unlady like. Who cares?
What is their version of a REAL
girl anyway? Butter is always better
than margarine, or so I'm told But
there is hope. There is a new wave
of skater kids coming up I've seen
them. It's great. I've heard a lot of
people say how they don't like all
these kids starting to skate, but, 1
mean, how did those guys start
out? Just selfishness, I guess. Hell,
I don't know. I don't care.

BOMB SQUAD
On February 15 I saw a concert.
But this was not just any concert.
The US Bombs played, or tried to
play At first it seemed to suck, but
then it really picked up. "The US
Bombs are playing my friend Erik
said. Then he said. "Duane
Peters, and I was all, "Fuck, yeah!"
I totally forgot he sang for them
