does anyone remember the jimjam gyro from about 96ish it was overshadowed by the fishbone ufo at the time. rare as fook. just thought it'd be good for a midschool build!

made by two guys, jamie coplin and jim something. really nicely engineered!

We had them in the shop!

Jim came in selling them as i recall, not very good but better than that Fishbone piece of crap!


Didn't they have a Ride ad?......

must have been a pretty small deal to be overshadowed by the fishbone ufo. I didnt know anyone who used a fishbone ufo

they were way better than the fishbone. fishbone were just a bigger company with more money available for marketing

hence being overshadowed. shame really!

If you can't get one mate I've got a Fishbone if you want to use that instead?
