And she gets used




My more recent new skool bike which I ride the ramps with- 2004 Haro "Dave Mira special" Flight

Just got back..


I ride with a few guys from back in the day like... didn't even realise I was riding with royalty and sharing a curry with em too.

A couple of guys who rode with Andy Ruffel and a guy called Billy Stupple... I dont know Rob and Trevs surnames but apparently they were on a few videos and stuff

I am a bit young for it.. ( thats sounds cool at 27 ) most of the guys I ride with are 40+

at Corby on Thursday Stupple was doing "old skool drop ins" on the 14.5ft high Vert

(thats where they drop in from the back wheels...... which is fuckin hardcore)

I skate and love it

I ride an old skool "Alva leopard" which i also use for cruising to the beech when i visit my mums in spain. Heres a pic of it....erm.....on the beech

And heres a pic of it set up with "Gyros" for Ramps and Pool riding

Recently, my mate has dug out his old Bmx from the loft and restored it aad we got talking as he didnt realise that there was a lot of old skaters and bmxicans that are back into it
Back in the day, well early 80's he was a pro rider and used to be on BMX Beat,Blue Peter and Time Out
His Picture of him doing Big Air out of the Performance Bowl at the Rom is still hanging in the shop there.
Heres a shity pic i took on my Phone of one of the Post Cards he used to sign and hand out to "Fans"

And just after he finished restoring the bike he tagged along with us Skaters and Skaterham and heres a pic of his first time on it and in fact the first time back on a bmx in just over 20 years
I thought he done well to get as high as he did for his first time in such a long time. It took me about four seshions before i could frontside the coping as the pipe is 11 Feet high
He wants to tag along with us in the summer to the Rom again as he wants to see if he can still ride the pools
I can

Dont ask me any techy q's as i'm a skater and dont know anything about bmxicams although i respect what they do. Its just the "Gay Bladers" i dont get
Regards
