I only rode Chingford once, but it was a good one.

bmxmike · « **Reply #4 on:** January 23, 2007, 10:26 PM »

best ramp, best scene.

Yeah - Chingford, that was my fav. halfpipe to ride. Great scene!! Paul Wright is the man, he lives in Orange County with his wife and 2 boys, Treat and Indy, great bloke, he still skates and rips too!. I'll have him get on the forum and say hello. Top Loader, that's funny,

Reconize yourself in the crowd - I see Zak back there, Blighty Wright, who else is in the crowd?

Andy Ripped Chingford with a passion.

Went there long after the jams to ride the midi. Learned to carve instead of going straight up & down, under Andy B.'s expert tuition.
John Dye, Pants, Sean Scarfe and a couple of locals hung round, the ramp had been moved & rebuilt by that time. This'd be about the Summer of 1990 or 91.
Is that Larry Bull next to Graham Marfleet?

i remember slamming on the 1/4 pipe there and making a big hole in it. i walked away quietly and nobody noticed the hole..
