he put 120% into the the 900's. unfortunately the trick would result in some hefty slams.

Scott and I had a lot in common. I loved hanging out with him at comps. I truly miss him. Until we meet again in the after, I will always have the fondest memories.

Scott inspired some of my best airs, and the nose pick drop in. We hung out at the Trumpton ramp and always had a good battle at the old BFA comps even though we were best of friends, a real good guy. Sad news to hear he's not with us any more. RIP m8.

I remember Scott use to come and ride the halfpipe in Camdean/Rosyth outside Dunfermline, he always seemed to go to Edinburgh to go to Quarterback for a new t-shirt on the way.

Just before he got sponsored by Skyway he had the Streetbeat in purple and whitem hutch stem, chrome ukais and woody basr (i think), i thought that bike was awesome.

Does anyone remember the letter in Action Bike from Scott, a couple of pics of him riding his own ramp.

Cheers

I drifted away from the scene probably about 91, can't rememebr where i heard this but i thought he had given up riding and got into snowboarding. then several years later saw Scott Caroll (RIP) in Invert/Ride, it was a real shock, as Scott was always a really positive person.

Last time i saw him was at Dundee factory and he was in his very moded Beetle with loads of girls hanging around it  :)

RIP Scott.

I would love to see more pics of him, anyone remember is One Handed No Footer on his purple Streetbeat when he started travelling south to the UKBFA comps.

Not gay but was Scott not one of the best looking guys EVER? Man, I miss hanging out with him at comps. We always had a blast.
