Post by: Ramp Rat on November 14, 2006, 12:28 AM: Ahhhh - man, these are way cool....thanks for the post....I remember seeing you lot getting airs out the bowls and freaking out. You lot were like demi gods. There was something magical about it, hard to explain - it was all so new - just seeing a BMX get an air out of the bowl was amazing - seeing these pics just gave me a taste of that feeling from back then. ROM rules :smitten:
