Anyone have this video? Am in it apparently, had no idea

Pretty sure I have a copy, as it would have been about the time we’d stay at Passmore’s down Nottingham, so saw a bunch of it filmed and wanted to own the vid (or maybe I’m confusing it for ‘Hello Coco’? But 90% sure it’s Focal Point).

I remember that video, think Rollersnakes chucked it in an order

It’s Passmore’s first video.

Cool, that would be the one then.

Unmistakably Gaz Jenkins on the cover

You are correct.
The Horse photo that the cover uses was in Gaz Jenkin’s Haunts in Sidewalk.
He was a lunatic

Always thought that ‘Gaz Jenkins’ was the most U.K. name imaginable. Like that’s what the token English character in a U.S. sitcom would be called.

Welsh, surely

I’ve got it somewhere! I had to get it because at the time Gaz Jenkins was one my fav UK skaters!

Pretty good vid!

Whatever.
