I'm glad someone finally mentioned Mike Canning....although he kinda rode for Skyway & we all knew he was amazing, I'm sure he got the short end of ths stick behind Neil, Craig & Carlo.......The guy was ahead of his time! remember Hoffmans Indian Air Candybar...Thats was a Canning creation, he called it the "Turkish Delight"...Get it? Indian canybar. ..pretty smart in my opinion. The guy was ahead of his time. Laidlaw, Guillote, Reynolds & Brown too....some of my best friends at the time.
Here's our boy Dave Slade....He's doing pretty well for himself. I'm stoked for him

Cheers John, much appreciated. :daumenhoch:
I just figured there was SO many people that didn't get the credit they deserved! My opener was a perfect example, nobody mentions Donovan Ritter these days and the guy was awesome! As we all know Mike D was way ahead of his time and DR was around at the same time as Fiola, Sigur, Dominguez etc. etc. but he NEVER gets a name check, weird!
Make your own minds up....
Ritter is the one on the far right...obviously! And by the way, Fiola won the highest air that day but you can clearly see he didn't!
