Great times.Due to nostalgia I find myself with an old school bmx collection now,slightly more expensive than 1984,but equally as enjoyable.
Just spotted me collecting the first prize at 40 minutes in, after this comp I was spotted and soon sponsored by Skyway UK.
I remember your Southsea skatepark stuff from the magazines.. Good Times 😊😊
The best times
I still ride and my seat is two fists high and always will be.
44 and still trying to ride .
Craig Campbell, Billy Stupple, Mike Pardon, Terry Jenkins, old firm! Legends
(1984) looks all so dated now, but lots of fun! the potts mod hasn't been invented yet(85) and the acs rotor hasnt come into being either, that was released a year later(86)... these were the most important things to happen in BMX! without them no one could do bar spins, tailwhips and decades!!! 1986-88 everything changed and evolved into what you see now ;)
We lived it large (B.M.X. style ).back in the day (80s)....First gen bike's... not the best, but progressed.....hence P.k.ripper, + G.T.s.... now we're talking. Mags,+ spokes,wheels...super whip framework.....that's how we rolled....get u some 😂...big love and big respect
La bonne époque
Wow those were the days memories I'm came 3rd in the 14 plus

ye buddy came 2nd,,,good days them,,
yeah, I came in 1st! great memories! thanks for the upload!
am stood at the side of you at the end,,,,,
An all alluminum frame Skyway race bike weighed what 12-15 lbs? You had to order those from a catalogue based in California. A whole bike would set you back $800 back in the 1980s.
3.04 'lets not forget bmx zipping around camel tops and whoopi whoo' lol
Yes, me too. Craig Campbell hero status........
wow thats crazy how far its come now....
It has changed so much
Back In the day
Super ! Schöne alte BMX zeit !
...and here he does the forward pogo, another simple trick'' That trick, which I'm sure isn't called that. looked pretty damn hard to me.
That skyway on the thumbnail tho.
before I got my good bikes I wanted that Skyway frame stander to put on my Randor lol. I got a Haro instead lol
boy, I wanted to be them when I was 14
I wanted a Diamondback, then I wanted a Mongoose, then I ended up with a Predator. Think I got it in 83 or 84. Had it stolen in 86 or 87. I had a car by then but still pissed me off to this day. I traded in my 5 Speed Stingray on that bike...wish I still had the Stingray.
i had a bad ass rampar cromo 3t with all alloy race inc shimano everything then it got stolen and i got a jmc to replace it and still have it and i discovered its quite valuable now but i still liked the rampar
Trick narrator reminds me of Mark Owen. Desperately wants to be American by the sounds of it, too 😂.
Back when the bikes looked amazing and anyone over 30, like the narrator, sounded really really sad!! I feel sorry for the teens and twenty somethings of the 90s and later because everything is just so ugly and boring, and everything is just a watered down version of what we did.
Why are the seats so high how bmx changed
No seat post is sooo gay, old school is where it's at!
says someone afraid of change for the good and stuck in the 80s..
who are either now "refined riders" or considered inovators of the sport.
they were that high because flatlanders back then used every part of the bike for tricks, they didnt just spin in one direction for 10 mins on one wheel.. its not a unicycle.
We rode a couple miles to homemade dirt tracks so a high seat helped for the long ride. Stashing an allen wrench under the pads was always cool to lower it when needed .
Also, @ 14:00 - beat Drake to it!
hey guys how much is a 1980s sigma worth
nothing
1 million dollars..easy.
Ah , yes, the " Camel Tops"
A one handed Pogo is not an easy trick😂
It’s either BMX or its freestyle....BMX is racing on a specially made track, and the riders decide who the winners are by winning the RACE!. The freestylers have a set of judges looking at the tricks they do to determine a winner!......BMX is not freestyle, freestyle isn’t BMX....amd neither is park or flatland styles of riding....
woodystorey Thanks for that detailed explanation. I don’t think they thought too deeply about the title back in ‘84 ;)
Darren Cousins....yeah, that’s probably true...It’s just one of those little things that has always kinda bugged me, because what freestylers do and what racers do is totally different, different skill sets. BMX is racing and freestyle is.....well, freestyle...
