Yes I think he was running them when he was riding for LWT on a 85 Master, but this was his first Master an 84 & I'm 90% sure this is his actual Master as I got it off a friend of Chris Young.

Wow I have a pic of him somewhere in my collection its strange to think I may have a pic of your frame.

He deffo looked the part bitd with the Haro gear and wearing his mirrored goggles on his eyes when other freestylers wore them on top of lids.
