Post by: tickz on June 15, 2011, 08:09 PM: some of those are of "jitsy", legend, he had a chrome gt performer at one point, he was proper mint!

I still pop in the skater sometimes, I think the new ramps and refurb will do the place justice, the old ramps were super tired.

I remember shouting for the bowls (now filled in)... bowl 1!, 2 then 3!!

ahhhhhhhhh memories!

Post by: hotdog on June 15, 2011, 08:36 PM: This was probably the only time I went to Bedminster. Around '85/6 I think. This skater was a local called Spex.
