going down. The rules were none, the beer was flowing.
and the slams were coming by the dozen. Unfortunately
for the vert ramp, Ruben Orkin skylabbed on a drop in
and was put out like a cigarette on the flatbottom:
ko'ed, seizures, dilated pupils, the whole nine yards.
The paramedics were on site in a matter of minutes and
the Rube-dog was on his way to the hospital. The ses
sioning went on till dawn and then it was time for the
street contest. Let me break it down: Agah-tank girl.
Bill Pepper-shorty gone wild. Rudy-dreads. Donger-
braids. Chet Thomas-bionic. Koston-all-American guy

Bob Burnquist (above) had the crowd drooling after he
unleashed his bag of Brasilian bombshells-blindside kick-
Rip to fakie for all it's worth. The Brazilian nuts come to
play: Carlos de Andrade (opposite top middle) switchflips to
fakie while his partner Rodil Junior (opposite top right)
frontside heelflips the hip. Sporting some funky socks, Mike
Frazier (opposite mid right) slows down for nothing on this
mute torque to fokie. Tos Pappas (sequence) fucking rips-
check out this kickstart kickflip alley-oop mute.
DROPPING BOMBS
Vert contests are funny in that even

a bail can still fuck up the whole deal.
When the announcer calls "fifteen sec-
onds" and your shit has been flat, do
anything to show the crowd you are
dead serious: Monk (left) does the rail-
ing drop, while Nathan Schroeder
(below) jumps off the roof to show
that when the chips are down, it takes
a specialist to get the job done right.
