I missed the freestyle boat a bit by jacking in at the end of 84 just as it got really big, but although I would have enjoyed the better ramps and lifesytyle I certainly am glad that I missed those fashions  :crazy2:
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,

 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

That was what it was all about Bill! Being different and not going with the flow! Cool fun times.

Well I'm not laughing at his bars.  I've had a set for 20 odd years and they are still going strong.  I even had a set stolen from my garage once! (admittedly, they were attached to a Trickstar)

Drop in Dave, we will form an AZ bars splinter group and laugh at all those poxy GT bars (bent some of them) CW bars (oh - bent some of them too) etc, etc......We will wail with laughter at the rediculously small handlebars that appear on new school bikes and wonder at the quality of the welds on your old AZ bars (what kind of welding was that by the way?).

Oh happy days.

Damon, here's some of those pictures from Slough 1986 that I mentioned in e-mail:

Damon showing Eddie Roman some UK air.

Craig lofting on what I recall was a pretty windy day.

The boys getting run out of town for being a little too excitable.

Maurice - killer pics man. I love the one of the crew getting kicked out these are priceless....I like my Brian Blyther style granny air too -  Thanks for the memories - I spoke to Eddie Roman about a year ago, we should get him on the forum.
