Throwback Thursday: 07 NY Brooklyn Banks Jam

This was an iconic event for a few reasons. It was one of the first times that riders gathered from all over the USA to meet at one spot and ride together. It also just happened to be at one of the most famous spots in the work, The Brooklyn Banks. Everyone threw down, and you get to see some riders riding that you can't see riding anymore.. OG riders like Ricky Wernicke, Chris Bartnicki, Frank Coler, and of course the late and great, Stevon Wilson. At about 3:40 you get a little shot of Zig Short was he was just a youngster..no clips in this one though. Definitely check this out.


Also don't forget to check out Josh Toy with his long black hair... something we will most definitely never see again. At least let's hope not.. haha.

    Zig as a youngster? He's 22 now meaning he was 17 when this happened ;D

    Oh and Josh that Whip to Superman was GNAR! It's always been my favourite trick from you.
