Tricks seems really tame compared to today, but that's where it all started. It was great to be alive back in '82,'83,'84. BMX Plux, BMXA Action. Video was super expensive back then so we had to figure out each trick from still pictures.

R.L.s the kyle petty of bmx, Along with HARO they only got where they are in the sport because they had their own personal PAPARAZZI. R.L.'s DAD, owner of the BMX Action mag. HMM.. Guys like Woody Itson, martin, William(Crazy Lacy)Furmage, Tony Ray Davis, Jeff Watson and a few other top riders never if ever got Photo shoots for the mag. Thanks to the internet these OTHER guys can get some respect they deserve. Google/youtube them. BMXFreestyleLegend is spot on. Crazy & Bill Watkins show .1979

He was right about being able to ride on the front wheel, it took about 20 years for people to do it.
This is taken from a U.S. show called, "Action Now magazine for television", which covered alternative sports, such as BMX, skateboarding etc. Do you have the rest of the show? I've been after this for nearly 24 years!

unfortunately i've never seen the full prog. i was given the short bob haro footage years ago on a tape which had a mix of all sorts on the tape.
