there's subcriptions for SLAP all over the net for 5,6,7 dollars. just try to find those best deal magazine sites. I was subscribed to slap for a year, but in that year I was also subscribed to TSM, thrasher transworld and skateboarder. felt like I needed to cut down a bit..now I don't get anything, but I'm probably going to subscribe to slap again this week. slap's probably the best mag out there right now, every issue my friend gets I basically devour. keep the love for upstate scene and I'll be subscribed till I'm thirty!
