    An article from RAD magazine for a skate competition at The Factory in Dundee in 1989. Scanned by https://www.whenwewasrad.co.uk/

    This was when the main ramps were up the top end of the factory at the main gate/door. Sometime after this the ramps were moved down to the bottom part where I shot the video below.

    • Did you stay overnight for that jam?
      My mate was saying he was there from Livi with a group of guys, they slept under the ramps at night.
