Neil Ruffell (RIP) was one RAD fooker!

I loved watching his balls out style of riding. That front hop drop-in may not look much or spectacular but that's one scary trick to do in that bowl!

Great find.

Wasnt the rained off day, the day when the US Skyway team were there? The pool comp didnt happen but it cleared up for the skyway demo on the hockey rink? I def remember getting the train down to southsea two weekends running to watch it all.

I'll dig out my (Very poor) pics I took.

if you haven't found anyone by the time you next come to rom, i'll do them for you. i bought my first ever scanner about 4 months ago and so far have only scanned in about 5 photos....  i need to justify buying it.

some rad riding on there. didn't make it to the comps in the early days but still got all the old mags and remember the pics like yesterday. maybe a few of us should all pool together what old footage we have  together and make a vid( should read dvd)?  now thats a subject to debate.
