It can be anything you want but it HAS to be old school and it HAS to be freestyle.

I'm still think so you lot have a think too and get them posted up!

This is my favourite pick - Craig Campbell on a Skyway TA...I remember this being a poster in BMX Action Bike (or maybe Freestyle BMX  ???) - anyway I used in to cover a maths exercise book. For some reason my maths teacher took exception...still can't imagine why????

Oh yeah...Hoffman's first cover and I believe, first pic. Ultra-extended no foot can. I think we all saw what was to come after that one. And it did.
