Water Jumping, Southsea, circa 95/96

[DJ]

Found this pic of Jon Ppppppppratt flipping off the Camber docks in Southsea circa 95/96....
This appeared on the front page of the local paper stating something along the lines of "local thrillseekers on suicide mission"!!!
All appears on Jon's videos somewhere... ahhhh them were the days
Thought Id share...

it wasnt the nicest water to jump into, i remember one day seeing lots of dead crabs floating in it from the fishmongers right next to where the jump was

Haha!!! You got me for a second there!!! When i looked closer its the bottles we had taped to the seat post & the frame with brown parcel tape, we didnt have anything else at the time!! Your lucky it isnt the flip Jon did with him boxers on his head & frank & beans swinging around to the amazement of the pub opposite!!!!

Was that the same spot where Old Man Isaac famously did that perfect flip on someone's bike?  I seem to recall he was wearing a wetsuit maybe?
