Skateboard! #9

Skateboard! #9 is the May 1978 issue. It's 100 pages long with less than 38 full pages filled with content that isn't advertising. Aside from the the usual housekeeping items like the editorials, letters and products releases, most of the content is photos of the U.K. locals, AKA the British Photofile. There's also a Tim Levis interview and a continuation of a how-to on building fiberglass laminated decks.
