This is where I date myself. Here is footage of us riding back in the day. This is the last weekend we all road together before we all went our seperate ways and the ONLY time we ever video taped our selves.
Let's see some of your footage/pics.
Come on jevad/gruntt you know you have some.

looks fun.
My wifes dad passed away last year and she went over to help clean the basement with her mom. She lifeted up a tarp and BAM, 100 2X4s just sitting waiting to be be turned into a finished basement. I said, "skate ramp" and My wife and her mom said take them, there yours. Now I just need some nails.

That brings back some memories. Flatland/street was soo much cooler than vert.
Right now hangin in my garage right next to my mountain bike is my trusty 1989 Haro team master. Been meaning to get new cables for the gyro and brakes, but have been too busy.

I have a 87 Haro Team Sport signed by craig grasso. remember him? Also if you look in the background of the first frame, that is a full pipe from a 2Hip contest. they gave us the ramp. It's just not put together.

Man, that brings back some memories! Forward rolling hang 5s, rope-a-ronis, whiplashes, decades, rollaids, funkychicken, backyards etc etc. I miss flatland and street.
Ron Wilkerson and the 2Hip tour ...
Love the tune as well ... heheh.

That's awesome gfro...
Takes me back to the days.
Jeeze that was fun. Cruising the streets with your mates bouncing of everything, on your BMX till it's too dark to see anything, and every now and then sporting a scab the size of a football from a stack you didn't pull off.

Yeah I remember Craig Grasso was nuts, Ron Wilkerson, Dennis McCoy was awesome.
I bet I have some BMX plus' around here.

- gruntt0
gfro - that's awesome. i so wish i had some video of the good ol' days.
the first thing i said when i was watching that video was "MINI RAMPS!" man those were the shit back in the day. The 2nd thing I said was "WINGER!" then I ripped my shirt off and jumped up on my desk playing air guitar.
sad fact: this weekend i pulled my old board out of the closet.... to loan to my neighbor that was moving furniture.
thanks man.

my folks couldn't afford a video camera. I used to be able to get my folks to take pictures but they always had a bad sense of timing so there'd be pictures snapped right before a trick or after a trick...I was like:
"Mommmmmmm!!!!"
heh.
