Title: Tale of two Quarterpipe's
Post by: TheOriginalNutter on May 03, 2006, 08:47 PM

Shepshed, Loughborough Leics 1980's

Check out this air on our 4' wide quarterpipe.
Outside my mate Plug's house - his mum and dad were so understanding about our antics ;)

This one is down at the BMX track in Shepshed. That's Blues ramp, his mum said he had to get rid of it so me and Plug dragged it (2 miles) down to the track.
It lasted for ages before getting wrecked - even in those days we were the big lads, so we didnt get much trouble !

Ohh the width :)

Nike indeed, the construction of the jacket escapes me right now ...   :-\

Bike is my beloved Haro Sport, after the Halfords Turbo It was my only 20" up till I got my S&M Holmes.

Great pics and quality supports on the back of the ramp!!

I also had a few of those Nike jackets, I remember having a blue and silver one.... In fact I think my old man has still got his!!!
