I would also like to thank my skateboard and other skateboarders for being around. Basically. I just broke up with my girlfriend. Now what's funny is people who read this are probably like "whatever," but inside you all know that you've been in my spot and you know that it fucking sucks. I wasn't even with this girl that long, but she was the type of girl that gets under your skin and infects your whole life. The type of girl you can't stand to be away from.

It's just that skateboarding skateboarding Form of recreation, popular among youths, in which a person rides standing balanced on a small board mounted on wheels. The skateboard first appeared in the early 1960s on paved areas along California beaches as a makeshift diversion for surfers when the ocean has been my escape to the world around me. I have found out that my skateboard can never flick me over. Yes, it may throw me around but at this point physical pain is welcomed; it is much better than all, the emotional pain I am feeling right now. So to all skateboarders out there, you need to show a little more appreciation to your best friend. Trust it, take care of it, because it can't an d won't flick you over. Much thanks again to Thrasher and fellow skaters you have been my chick rehab. Down for life. Nick List Fort Collins, Colorado The City of Fort Collins, a home rule municipality situated on the Cache la Poudre River along the Colorado Front Range, is the county seat and most populous city in Larimer County, Colorado. Don't worry, she wasn't that hot. T-ed PEACEKEEPER Skaters never die! I just wanted to say thank you to the skaters and all the people at Thrasher that put the best magazine together for all the skaters to read. To the point--I am in prison. I asked my family to send a Thrasher mag into me. I felt kind of odd at 32 about what other inmates might think of what the hell I was doing reading a skate mag. Come to find out, I was getting asked by old skaters and young ones too if I was the one with the Thrasher. It's cool to be able to have a magazine that can break down the politics in a place like this, and get your mind out of Hell on Earth and into what we used to love when we were in the free world. Raymond Preckwinkle Susanville, CA YESTERDAY'S NEWS I don't get it, the rivalry between BMX BMX abbr. bicycle motocross BMX Noun 1. bicycle motocross: stunt riding over an obstacle course on a bicycle 2. and skateboarding. Why can't everyone just get along and pick on all those stupid fruitbooters, which are commonly known as rollerbladers? I am 14-years-old and live in a small town in New Hampshire New Hampshire, one of the New England states of the NE United States. It is bordered by Massachusetts (S), Vermont, with the Connecticut R. forming the boundary (W), the Canadian province of Quebec (NW), and Maine and a short strip of the Atlantic Ocean (E). . Here, the bikers and skaters get along fine. We just pick on 'bladers and posers. I recently read your article "BMX Jihad jihad: see Islam. jihad In Islam, the central doctrine that calls on believers to combat the enemies of their religion. According to the Qur'an and the Hadith, jihad is a duty that may be fulfilled in four ways: by the heart, the tongue, the hand, ." I looked up what Jihad meant; it said it is a Muslim holy war. So what has extreme sports extreme sports Sports events characterized by high speed or high risk. Such sports include aggressive inline skating, wakeboarding, street luge, skateboarding, and freestyle bicycle events (wherein tricks such as back flips are performed on a bicycle). come to? We have to make up stuff about holy wars and crap like that? I bet only about one-quarter of the people doing BMX and skateboarding really, truly hate each other. Personally, I don't think that some of your articles help either, like that article about the biker bik·er n. 1. One who rides a bicycle or a motorbike. 2. A motorcyclist, especially a member of a motorcycle gang. biker Noun a person who rides a motorcycle that took a sledge sledge: see sled. hammer to one of the skater's ledges. I have to admit though, that was out of the bikers' own stupidity, and if you are reading this, know that you are probably one of the reasons that BMX is frowned upon more than skating. So, in conclusion, don't fight with each other. Take yo ur anger out on those stupid fruitbooters. Bruce Morse Barrington, NH Let me guess, you're a biker. T-ed THE BIG LITTLE PICTURE What will become of us? I don't know Don't know (DK, DKed) "Don't know the trade." A Street expression used whenever one party lacks knowledge of a trade or receives conflicting instructions from the other party. exactly what I am trying to accomplish by wilting this letter to your mag, and I don't mean to disrespect you guys in anyway; I think your mag rocks. I just want the normal people that have been skating for years and know what skateboarding once was to think seriously of what has become of the industry itself. I've been wondering what the heroes of my childhood are thinking. Pros are now being sponsored not only by all the independently owned companies that produce decks, trucks, shoes, and other things necessary to skate. In these dark days, pros are signing with corporations that produce soft drinks, cell phones, shades, temporary hair dyes, and a host of other shit that is completely unnecessary for skateboarding. What's going to be next? The Tony Hawk
In the context of general equities, this describing a buy interest in which a dealer is asked to offer stock, often involving a capital commitment. Antithesis of in touch with. a killer new spot. It's about having fun and watching Quiet Storm over smokeables and 40s. It's not about what cell phone your lame, middle-class ass should buy because the ad in Big Brother was so bad ass. It's not about coolness. It's not about what kind of car you should get your parents buy you. It's not about fucking GOT MILK? ads! These corporations that are pushing their products on us could give a rat's ass about us. In fact, it is my theory that they are the reason so many mini malls are being built with nubs included in the blue prints. Go try to skate in front of a Nike headquarters building and see how long it takes for you to be fully prosecuted. They care for one thing and one thing only: YOUR FUCKING MONEY, YOU IDIOTS! They have complete control over enough people's thoughts. And although I love that many of the pros signed to these greasy bastards, I am pissed that they have sold us with their loyalty to the big checks that the Boost Mobile phone company sends them every month. In conclusion, I simply just have to say be who you want to be. Do not ever let someone else tell you what is cool and what is not. Marlon Sarro Ventura, CA We'd reply, but we're in Vegas. T-ed HODLIGANS FOR LIFE I used to skate when I was a kid, but I still have a love for the sport even if it comes from the sidelines as a spectator. I've got a message for our youth. To all you young hooligans out there shredding the streets, you have got a good thing going even if all the disapproving ignorant majority is 1 breathing right down your neck saying "skateboarding is a crime." My response: Tony Hawk and others are making millions, and at the same time providing an avenue for our youth to do something constructive with their time. And what do those that oppose have to show from all their hollering? A headache from stressing on shit they can't relate to and a pocket full of green lint lint - A Unix C language processor which carries out more thorough checks on the code than is usual with C compilers. Lint is named after the bits of fluff it supposedly picks from programs. , instead of green backs. The moral of the story is that skateboarding isn't a crime, it's a deterrent from committing crimes So young hooligans, continue to do what you do best. Express all your individuality and creativity by shredding the streets. Keep up the good work.

I am currently in Iraq serving our country. Without a Thrasher right in my hand and a board under my feet the days out here can pass very slowly. I was wondering if you guys could send me some reading material to get my mind off things? Oh, the "To Classify is to Control" article in the April issue should be read by every skater.
