Obbie:
The first tailwhip air wasn't done in 85 , it was 89 90 by Joe Johnson...

Daniel W:
Yup, Joe J did the first proper tailwhip air, but Dominguez did a semi successful tailwhip flyout at the Combi Pool in Upland in '85 (or '86).

PaulM:
Anybody got any recent pics or footage of Carlo riding vert?

Hey All..

Thank you for the great comments...  I do have some pics here but i will be loading them up tp my web site...   Just been looking at the posts. and there have been many good vert riders...  On a level playing field you would have Mike canning and Jerry galley up there with everyone.. tabron has done real good im pretty sure he only rides foam now and then but for sure he did 900s with out it... I know for a fact that all the other riders that do these apart from maybe a couple did them is foam...  yes bestwick can do no handed turndown 900s on resi... but im sure there is allot of vert riders that can do that if they lived in woodward... look at Eduardo terreros he dont need foam... he is a hard man..  Whatever we can all say such and such is the best but doing it like bestwick does is how it is..  Look at Kagy.. 10ft double whip flatspin 540...  You can not learn that without foam... it takes 100s if not 1000s of times to learn that...   

Whats quite funny i had all my team at my place over the weekend and Trev and marc trill where there also... i have one kid who rides for me and he can do double flip whips , flairs front flips all the big tricks but he cant air over 3ft.... he cant do rollbacks...  Then we have mike miller... he looks amazing the best lookbacks in the world...  For every rider i have ever seen and every other person who has seen him ride will tell you its all about style...

i will forward a picture to trev to upload..  trev i hope you liked your hockey puck burger!!!

cant wait to hear some comments...

Carlo
