Ive had this tape of footage for ages and Im finally getting it up on line. Here is the first section

Jerry Galley!!!

This is some of him riding Uxbridge Mini ramp and then some at Wakefield skatepark. Its all from the mid 90s, Jerry is riding an S&M HAF and they were out in 93/94.

The riding is just amazing, so good. He makes every trick look briliant. On edge the whole way.

Also look for Mason Smith who pops up and throws down. Again, such a good rider.

Ive posted this up in here cos its Mid at its best and I didnt want it to get lost in the Video section

Laz, thats nuts. Im behind him on his mini run sat on my bike on the deck (in a grey sweatshirt and a blue had on backwards).
Once again we were in the same place and didnt know eachother!

Laz, is that you with the girl (?) who he has to swerve to avoid?

Lazarou · « **Reply #10 on:** September 11, 2008, 11:16 PM »

Yep!

SaMAlex · « **Reply #11 on:** September 11, 2008, 11:18 PM »

Thats rad! I always wondered what you and the girl were thinking when Jerry almost hit you, and then still busted out a massive air.

Lazarou · « **Reply #12 on:** September 11, 2008, 11:29 PM »

I think that was the day i witnessed one of the best Vert comps ever! Galley, Tabron, Stuart King, Jamie, Zak the list goes on!....

Ive got some of it on video but those 1/4 airs are better. I should get the vert comp up on line anyway

Mason Smith?

Jerry ruled everywhere he went, always.

When I went to Montpellier to MC @ FISE this year the french speaking MC who was there, first thing he says to me "Do you know Jerry Galley?" of course I reply with "Yeah" & he's like "Best fookin rider ever man, get him down here, I love that guy!"

Yep, Its Mason.... like I said in the first post

Ive got some more footage of Mason and Richard Brown to come. Sure, they didnt have Jerrys style, but they both kicked arse.

WAS

? does more like, someone had some footage of him with mr meacher at skaterham, top night

one of the nicest,gentliest people i have ever met, fecking lovely chap and you really cant help but feed off him when riding

welsh denny · « **Reply #19 on:** September 12, 2008, 04:30 PM »

ace footage. gerry rips . you could put him on a 2ft ramp and he'd prob shred.

one talented rider who never pushed himself to do all the big comps. he always preferred a chilled out ride but ripped always and the masses loved to watch him ride.

think i got some footage of him from over the years- bristol vert sesions, koc's, bike shows at nec. maybe more......

emerbmx · « **Reply #20 on:** September 13, 2008, 12:10 PM »

thats awesome footage-
one of the best things you could ever witness on a bike is a gerry galley air.

whos got the KOC footage where he does a huge wallride, then big 360 over the spine on his first run? was it on props or clicked?
i'll never forget seeing that run

lodge · « **Reply #21 on:** September 13, 2008, 01:12 PM »

Love seeing unseen footage like this, JG one of the most talented riders ever.

That huge turn down at the end is crackers, thanks for posting

Miko · « **Reply #23 on:** September 13, 2008, 06:50 PM »

The last two big airs are awesome. Take a still and the style is iconic. No need for a zillion bar spins and flips. That's just elegant riding. Not a single Red Bull or Mountain Dew banner in site. Those were the days.

Funny how naked parks looked then.
