I don’t have any - badges and stickers are easier to take off if I change my mind. :grinning:

Roses (from the tracksuit board ) or a Krooked bird might be good though.

I’m fairly sure we’ve all seen this photo before but I thought the ‘first time no risers’ comment from @heavymetalchuck was interesting.

Not seen this before. He seems to be wearing moccasins. Very few can make a sweeper look this good.

I think those are Gucci loafers

I can’t see the risers comment, but that photo’s from ‘91 and I know that I’d ditched risers and rails by then.

Also, he was definitely by far the best thing about Psycho Skate…

Oh. It’s still there… at the top (for me).
I’d copy / paste it over but can’t do that from IG.

I’m sure there’s a photo of him in those skating meanwhile.

Had a quick Google before replying: There is. Meanwhile 2 gap ollie.

Has anyone got this book?

Yes. It’s ok, but not quite as good as I was hoping for.

Seconded. I feel it was a bit of a missed opportunity - it could have and should have been so much better. Still, I had to have it to go alongside my other Gonz oddments*.

*A load of his books, boards and Gonz assorted ephemera. I have a large print of this J Grant Brittain photo in a hallway.
