One handed no footers used to give me the big smile factor too, I entered one of the Derby jams when I was about 16 and learnt them, and various other bits and bobs during the jumpbox comp. Mal from Local clothing gave me a load of prizes despite other people doing backflips and big 360's and shit, his reason was because I had the biggest smile on my face. Which was true, I had never pulled half that shit before and was massively stoked.
It all went downhill from there and I stuck to tech miniramp tricks and street
RIP Storm skatepark and RIP Mal's back
BTW does anyone know scott the punk? http://rideukbmx.com/30-seconds/healthy-living-scott-buchanon.html Used to ride with him although he's a few years younger than me. Watching him rip at storm going real high over the box was real stokement for me, he was always so stoked and rad and positive. I aint spoken to him for ages though :(
