 "Who is it ?"  "Do you really really have to ask" 

thats a great blast from the past, Mantronix spinning and Mc tee rocking the mic, if you ever listen to one other Mantronix jam make sure its
Needle to the Groove, oh and you can't beat Carlo on a Skyway

I think Carlo was as good as Hoffman and was the most underated rider ever. He is a legend. The first time I saw him ride he was about 13 and very small , he did a 7 foot turn down and I just thought its time for me to quit. So I did lol.

A great vid, i have thought about the Hoffman/Carlo thing in the past but they are very different riders, personally i prefer to watch carlo as i think he had a powerful dialled style, i dont want to take anything away from Hoffman but he's vert riding was sketchy in comparison to carlos.
For all the high airs carlo did bitd he very rarely bailed.
I too remember the first time i seen him ride, he was on a white performer you just knew he was gonna be something special.

Agreed he's a legend.
