From the collection of ????
I found this in the attachments folder of a crashed email program circa 2008, I have a couple others that are missing pages. Please contact Skate and Annoy if you were the one who donated these.
A solid issue with good photographs and not a lot of talk. Also the first one to make it clear that it is needed a straight edge skateboard zine, with “Drug free and proud” on the cover for the first time, Issue 10 has the same tagline, but sadly all we have is the cover. Guessing on the date for this one, if Skate Straight #8 with the Surf Ohio contest was in 1988 and this one covered a spring break trip to Kona that would have probably put it into the next year.
