Brilliant doc!
@@Asheanae thanks 🙏
Many great memories of travelling over to Rom. First visit was back in the late eightys, and was a regular visitor right through the 90's.
Bob is cool
❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊awesome
Great vid, many good memories, nice closing tribute to Neil Ruffell, RIP
As iconic as livi and meanwhile..
Do a Hoffman bike video be great
Those Legends came to our town up north. My friend's and I got a train in to see. When we arrived we found Andy and his girlfriend needing directions. They were in a white Sierra cozzy or xr4i so we escorted them on our bikes to the venue where Neil and his Dad were. Shredding all the way we arrived to find the kick and quarter set up and great display of tricks. Andy signed my Skyway padset I had on my welded up burner. He was with Raleigh at the time and was real cool about it. Neil was a total Legend! Rip Neil. The fact they came all that way for us kind of made our year. It was pictured in evening telegraph the following days. It was really good to see Andy riding his bike again in your film and I remember most of the boys from back when. Many Thanks cool cool cool!
Listening to Max talk about his Ultra Burner was cool, I got mine around 82/83 when they first came out, I would have been ten or eleven. In Hemel we had a BMX Track over in Grovehill, occasionally a wooden quarter pipe would appear and I’d try a weak sauce kick turn, lol. We made the trip to Harrow Skate Park one time on the train, very intimidating! 😬🤣
Nice one zach
So many good memories from here!!!!! 55 and still riding.
Excellent. In 1983 me and a load of mates caught the train down from Stourbridge, near Brum. It was an epic adventure. I was only 13 at the time. If me mom had of found out she would have killed me. Massive respect.
It’s not a photobomb if it makes the photo better
He had a half pipe in his garden !! Lol ! I bought a shitty team murray from their shop opposite lloyds park walthamstow the thing weighed a ton ..him nicky mathews and pete middleton from the stow !!
fuck all the whining little cnts, theyre just jealous for living empty lives, im your age, been skating since i was a kid, just keep at it, its your life mate
Age dont matter. We skate! Ya! Its a addiction for me.
#INEPT1
Could you not install a drain in the bottom of the pool or drill to aid drainage etc? Is there not a drain already there?
Love the explanation on these 😂😂
Your skating is epic mate keep going.
Another insane moment I was present for 😅 Legend
The pool and the performance bowl at ROM are brutal. Love the old halfpipe with some of the wall taken off…
Glad to be there for such insanity😂
What year did Romford skate park open ?
@@porkpie8667 1978
@@RomboysFilm I visited the park in 1989 . A group of us from Manchester went down to South Bank in the morning. Then got the tube or train to Romford. It was a top day out .
Great video thankyou for sharing. Amazing I never got to go Gillingham Black Lion was my haunt but.......same designers and same (less popular than the Rom) scene.
I was always at the black lion park as a teenager great memories and once a month jump on the train from sheerness and get up to rom and got all my bikes and bits from OT cycles in dartford.
@@FusedAnubis1 Yeah do you remember no softies? RAD store
@@ashleystyles6888 Oh yeah 👍Mill road if I remember correctly
@@FusedAnubis1 that's right. Owned by raff. Happy days.

Nope definitely Rom.
Andy you were BMX in the day, love ya man 👍
Keep shredding and happy rolling 💪
I remember seeing a BMX show in Bracknell sports centre and a few locals joined the demo. Rom pool is a serious thing to skate.

Was this the 2018 one or was it yesterday?
@@NathanWhitlock-b1r 2018
