When a rider like Casey Starling joins the squad we knew we wanted to start things off with a bang! So as soon as Casey was on board he hopped on a plane to San Diego to sesh the streets and mark the occasion in the streets.
It's been a good three years since we saw a fresh part from Sunday's Mike Mastroni, but that didn't mean he was sleeping! Since the completion of his Headlight's section, Mike has been out there bagging ultra creative clips on a variety of stand-out setups, and the result is well... incredible. 'Industrial Eyes' is the kind of part you can watch over and over and notice something new every viewing.

What happens when you take one of the best BMX riders there is and mix it with one of the best BMX film makers out there? …. This.
Going back in time with FAT-'zine issue 06. 1988. Carlo Griggs (Proper) on the cover.
The colour of the cover changed with every issue. I sometimes checked on the cover color before Joop (R.I.P.) started photocopying but at times I couldn't be bothered and found out when the 'zines were done. It's still 1988 and Carlo Griggs scores the cover. Jamie Cameron took the photo. Nice one.
The 'zine is starting to look professional with an official editorial page, contents page, and articles.
Interviews in issue 6 come from Tommy Guerrero, Dennis McCoy, Rick Allison and Robert Moeller. There's a photo of Axel Reichertz flatlanding with a fullface. Paul, Menno and I did a Coca Cola commercial and made easy money.
Frank Peeters reports about the Titus Cup, Le Clip provided the free sticker, we went to Bonn for a contest at Mathias Rechenburg's place, we cruised over to Den Haag for a sk8 contest, we visited Tropica in Germany and also discovered the banks at the University of Düsseldorf (1988!).
The Stokebros are starting to make a presence and Olli contributed a nice drawing of Alf.
Just flip through the 'zine page by page and discover something weird. Find the link below to turn the pages.
