Tinker Juarez Tabletop At Lakewood Skatepark

Tinker Juarez from the December 1980 issue of Bicyle Motorcross Action. 

BMX Action--March 1984

I am not sure what is most impressive? R.L.'s air. Or all of the crazy captions on the cover. They really tried and fit as many on there as they could didn't they. Didn't really matter to me when I was younger, great cover shot and freestyle tricks I could do, I was SOLD!

At the time I had no idea about NBL racing, San Antonio had only two ABA tracks and I am not even sure where a NBL track was located in Texas, and to tell the truth, I still don't. Great Brent Patterson shot.

What was the difference between the #1f on Rod Fehd's plate and the #1 on D.D. Leone's plate? I am actually wishing they would have had one of those drawings of this tracks layout. From what they showed it looked really good.

Here is the top side view of the cover shot. I actually think I like the cover shot better. Well, minus the free prizes of course.

Cult Goods. Did the band The Cult ever get back together? Or did they never really break up?

BMX Action--November 1982

Another kick ass cover from BMX Action and Bob Osborn. Greg Hill leading another race and somehow keeping his feet on those rat trap pedals. Around this time everyone I knew wanted a chrome GT set up like this. Including me. Chrome will get you home. And it might even get you first in the mains.

BMX Action--February 1983

I will be honest, there are a ton of these back issues of BMX Action that I missed growing up. This happens to be one that I wish I would have picked up at our local Albertson's. I absolutely love that cover shot of Clint Miller on his 2X4. Speed, style, great lean over one of the "flaming debris" at Magic Mountains

I have seen so many different shots from this jumping contest at the ABA's Lancaster race, this has to be one of the best of Jeff Kosmala blasting in the long distance jump. I am glad the boys holding the 9th Street Halloween Jams are still having these. Always one of the best things to watch.

From the looks of it, the Lancaster track had one of the best lay outs of the season. Would have loved to race that track, looks really fun and technical. And there you have Greg Hill winning in the Pro Cruiser Class again. Wonder if GT had a bonus clause in his contract for going after the cruiser number one title?

Mike Buff with a perfect table top during a BMX Action show at the Magic Mountain race between motos.

Advance kick turn trickery. I keep saying that coaster brakes need to make a come back. ACS would make a killing if they brought back that freewheel that had the lock out on it. Someone needs to make that happen.

Flatland legend Martin Aparijo getting his X-Up on. Must have been before he made the switch over to BMX Plus testing crew. I always forget how good of a jumper Martin was, always had a good style on jumps.
