Featuring: UK Scene report (Wow, in first issue!) Competitng hammerhead shapes in product review, street skating on university of Illinois campus, Midwest mini tour, review of Naked Raygun show with skate rock band McWilson opening – (unbiased, I’m sure, as both S&A editors were in McWilson, and McWilson was created out of thin air to open for Naked Raygun.)

Editor’s Note: All-in-all a pretty good first issue with a surprising amount of photos. Right out of the gate we really had a lot of attitude and took ourselves seriously.
