Awsome place. Skated there from 90 to 97. Miss that place too. I've never seen a park set up the way that one was since. Loved how you could hip from ramp to ramp, mini, to large mini, to spine and back. The place had a great flow.
i could have never known Jeff Phillips but it makes even me sad how every video of his has a comment about what happened to him. I can't imagine what it would be like for close friends and family members of his to see these kinds of comments over and over again
Nice.. the ole' Alternator. People skated vert in the 90's ? :) I was so oblivious to it. Sadly. I remember Aultman showing up at the Jeff Phillips Memorial Skatepark (I refuse to ever except it was called Rapid Fagolutions). He always used the entire park. Nothing but impressed. MORE JPSP footage is needed!!!!
Does anyone remember the mini-spine ramp they had by the street area just north of the wooden bowl? Man, I loved that thing. That was one of more reasons as to why I went there. The big spine ramp west of the bowl was cool too, but I couldn't do as much on that as I could with the small spine. Sucks they tore it down to make the street area bigger.
But still, I miss this place. This place had so many great memories for me. I was there almost every Saturday between 90 and 94.
This park looks a lot like Rapid Revolution, or "Rapids", is it? I remember it closed down after the owner shot himself one night in the park. Is this the same place or no?
crazy to see this video. I was only 12yrs old, but I remember seeing yall up there.... And I still see jon the alternator in austin..... fuckin gnar gnar
