OK so here are some of my Pipeline skatepark pics as promised. It just isn't feasible to post them all so I picked a few that I thought were cool. 8)

the friday before the competition mrs hoffmann(the owner of pipeline) let me and vanderspeck into the park during the day when it was closed. no one else was allowed in but us. the best part about it was that about an hour later mr. hoffmann opened up the snack bar and said we could help ourselves to any thing we wanted to eat or drink. :daumenhoch:

this is me, nothing special but I thought it was kinda cool. 1 i'm on my mongoose. 2 i'm riding with tuffs, back when i liked riding with tuffs.
3 I have a number plate on both sides of my bars, so I could put more sponsor stickers on and you could see it even when i did x-ups. 4 i'm wearing fiolas "tricks r 4 kidz" riding pants that he gave to me that morning.:daumenhoch:

me lookback 85. notice the three feet of vert in that bowl. back in the day in my mind that three foot lookback was just the same as a six foot lookback on any ramp.

-
That is Hugo "GONZO" Gonzales. That guy was hilarious, my gut ached from laughing so much. The camo truck was Fiolas ride.
I'm still waiting for more pics to come back from the processors. He did a wall ride off the fence on the other side of the full pipe, he was nuts!
-
i think i have that on a dvd, was that the one where bob haro did the scoring in a fetching pair of black and white check shorts. blyther should have won the highest air comp if its the one i'm thinking of.
-
Bob Haro was one of the judges, so was Mike dominguez (with a broken foot) and Frank Scura. Here's a couple more.
L-R, Donovan Ritter, Bob Haro, Mike Dominguez

Andy, seriously those pics are great, a real part of history. Thanks for sharing them with us.
-
Brilliant pics dude! It's good to see some lovely raw pics like that from state-side. Parictularily the ones of Fiola - the man is my hero.
Thanks for sharing, it takes ages to scan and post up pics, but those babies are worth it.

Those pictures of Dominguez are awesome, he was way radder than Fiola IMO.
Great pics Mr Shohara
-
awesome pics :) loads of style too

Andy! Hey, it's Maurice here. How's it going? It's been a while. Man, those are some cool shots. Mind if I use a few on the Curb Dogs page? How have you been? I'll forward this to Hugo. I'm sure he'd be psyched to hear from you too.
-
Hey Drob.. I live up in NorthCal too. If there's one rider I'd love to meet, its Hugo. Any chance you could sort it out?
-
:4_17_5: pix andy ,
keep em flowing
-
Hey Maurice, it has been a long time, close to 18 yrs or so since I last saw you. Help yourself to anything you can use. I used to have a really good close up of dave from the pipeline but I can't seem to find it. Tell Hugo I said hi. P.S. keep watching this board because I'm going to post a Del Mar KOS thread and Hugo will be in it :daumenhoch:

Great pics.
I seem to remember from a magazine back then someone riding Pipeline on a cruiser. Anyone else remember that?

Can't wait for the next batch. Drooling over here. Tricknuts, probably the easiest thing would be to come to the get together Scott Freeman is putting together. We're thinking about making it in Petaluma at Ramp Rats - Mike Krnaich's park. No date yet but I'll post it here when it comes together. I think we're figuring Augustish? What part of Nor Cal are you in?

Pipeline is long gone, lawsuits and insurance companys made it nearly impossible to keep skateparks open. :'(
