   cool 

[SteveG]

Brilliant, at least you have some of you on film, wish I had some.

action zone bars, it says 1986 but i think it was 85

notice one of the airs is a topside no-foot can can, it's kinda hard to see

[billstup]

What was the thing with the back brake at the start, did you have to adjust it ?

[MartyC]

Looks pretty cool, at least you have some video footage 

[dordymush]

great old video.
aint it funny though that tricks you could pull off every time when you were messing about in the street never came off when people were watching lol.

[Trev]

cool vid. i wish i had some of my competition runs videod...

it's definitely not 1985 though.  86 seems more likely.  the quickspin and backwards infinity roll didn't come out until 86.  i remember the first time anyone had seen the quickspin over here in the uk. scott freeman came over and done it.  it was the first up to date trick i had learnt. i learnt it the day after i saw scotty do it.  i remember about a month later, freestyle bmx were raving about the fact that craig campbell pulled it in his routine. i thought to myself, how cool am i as i learnt it about a month earlier...

Nice footage m8... Not easy for a younger, smaller guy to pull some of those moves.

[Dingobmxer]

cool vid 
bike looks HUGE though 
  DINGO

[bsdforever]

yeah the bike looks massive

action bars, SR stem and Speedwheels spinner all added to the extra height!!!

I had an adjustable seatclamp to put my seat up for the quickspin

I saw you grabbing for that a few times, i thought you had unhooked the quick release on the brakes with your foot. I used to do that regularly...      Annoying

[selfpreservation]

sweet vid you were well young nice bike no framewhip though , i remember the boomerang coming out i landed one in the under 12s northern ireland freestyle competion and it won me the comp Aon my master , had to swap half way through for a supertuff for airs cause id just had a coaster fitted and i couldnt even get halfway up the quaterpipe with it  , cant remember when but it was deffo the year the vanderoll came out , i won £15 worth the halfords vouchers LOL

If it was 85 I was in that one, It may be the one that Scott Macdonald won where is mum was the judge and he was shite....
Was it at Milburn Academy

come on madall, read the thread all the way through..... i've already concluded it must have been at least 86.... 

[madall]

OK Trev if it was 86 I was probably shagging me burd that day...lol

[hunterdubber]

You say its embarrassing ,but I bet it gives you buzz watching it

  you  gotta laugh at the old geezer who's walking across you when you are going up the trick ramp probably trying to find the badminton courts

[jimmyp]
