I came across some more gems in my photo collection.

These are from the KOS at Southsea back in either 86 or 87 (can anyone confirm the exact year ?)

Enjoy.....

Neil (RIP)

Darren


Jess

The board next to the riders is marked up to 7 feet with a little bit more on top, so you can get a feel for how high they are going !

Wow , absolutely awesome pics, and from the opposite side to most pics from the same comp. (pretty sure 85 year of Nike Kagools)
The NR pic........ i have no words, i would send it to AR to post up on his site with the rest of the photo's of Neil.
Thanks for sharing with others. :4_17_5:

wow - love the NR pic. beautiful style - Great stuff. Southsea KOS brings up bad memories for me, I air to the right so the extended vert didn't help and don't do undervert very well so it was a shite competion for me. I remember going for a footplant on the palnk of wood and missed it completley, crashing to the bottom of the bowl, what a disaster. I think I placed last in that comp. That's a scary bowl.

As has been said before - 85 for sure. The 5th pic of Jess has got me mate, and freestyle partner, 'chopsy' in the background - I must have been just outa shot.damn!
Great day, though remember it rained most of the day.
Also have a bundle of pics must scan in someday :)
