Freestlylin' Magazine -- September 1986 Part Three

This Driver's Education article has always been one of my favorites. I never managed to figure out how Jason Parks did that candybar x-up kick turn. So sick!

CW Racing -- Flirting With Dizzaster

CW always had some of the oddest ads. Here John "DIZZ" Hicks pops some front wheel hops while two strumpets are on their way to The Whiskey a GO go to see Guns N' Roses.

Freestylin' September 1986 -- Part Two

Taking a minute to post part two of the Freestylin' September 1986 issue. A look into a little bit of the craziness of tour life. The sequence of RL doing a rebound was cool and all, I just always preferred a windshield wiper.

Dave Vanderspek Over Christian Hosoi -- Venice Beach AFA Contest

A reminder of how good Vanderspek was.Here is Vander over Hasoi during the Venice Beach AFA contest. I am still trying to figure out what issue of Freestylin' this is from. I am thinking the November 1985 issue, if anyone can verify that for me?

Freestylin' Magazine -- September 1986

The beginning of September brings about the re-start of the old school magazine throwback posts. So it seems fitting that the first issue I am posting is the September 1986 issue of Freestylin' with Ceppie Maes on the cover.

Maurice Meyer and Dave Vanderspek two parts of the legendary Curb Dogs. If you look at Maurice's sequence in the other direction it looks like a huge abubaca. And the shot of Vander is just pure amazingness. Almost as good as this one.

San Francisco Old School BMX Footage

Maurice Meyer always has great old school video clips over on his You Tube site. This little segment from what looks to be some kind of local kid's show, has a lot of great riding from some of the San Fransisco legends. Looks to have been shot right around the time this issue of Freestylin' came out.
