bad egg zine #6

yesterday i got home from work and saw an opened empty unfamiliar envelope on the end table in the living room. ohhh what did we get?!! ash from colorado who came down for an event stayed with us for a day. she does the bad egg zine and she's rad. she sent a couple issues, one for us and one for bakerface. like a goodzine maker should, she trades with other zines. i've never actually held an issue in my hand, but i have seen them on the website. the zine is a photocopied issue, black and white, lots of photos and some creative writing on things that are going down in the skateboarding world that you won't read about in major publications.

this issue features a brief article on her and her hubba's "egg" at their previous homestead, the new colorado springs skatepark, an update on some colorado skatepark projects (bennett diy, nederland, ft. collins), an article on her trip to az recently (with some rad pool skating shots), jail mail with jack the ripper (which i'm having a very difficult time reading - when you see it, you'll know what i'm talking about), and a bunch of random photos (one of which is wrex at the chicken ramp). on to some of my personal favs of the zine... the upper lip review of moustaches and the "hole in the sun" review.



so to sum things up for you, if you don't get this zine, you might as well get a subscription to rollerblade weakly.

to get a copy, send 2 dollars to ash or find it somewhere for free. bad egg:1354 s. poplar st. denver co 80224 or ash@badeggzine.com
