Proper old school styles for this weeks OSS, Scotty Freeman’s first ever contrast, 1984 in Huntington Beach! Enjoy!

For this weeks OSS we go back to 1990, Rob Compton from Myrtle Beach, NC killing it at the Freestyle NBL Nationals 1990 in Raleigh NC, competing in the 16/17 Expert Flatland class!

Every once in a while a repost is worthy, and this incredible run from the Worlds in Limoges, France 1993 is most definitely worthy! The crowd reaction, the music, and of course the riding! Albert Retey!

This weeks OSS features Perry Mervar’s section from the Bully SlowRide video circa 1990, enjoy!

Roosevelt Taylor came up trumps with Pete Brandt and Eric Emerson’s section from Reality TV Part 1. Hugely influential in modern day flatland riding, make sure you give this a watch!

A couple of weeks ago James White asked me what video/section made the biggest impression on me growing up, interestingly enough we both picked the same section. Pete Brandt’s ground breaking section from Reality TV Part 2 1991. Pete absolutely murders the San Mateo Underground in this underground classic from Chad Johnston. In related news, does anyone have Pete and Eric Emerson’s part from Reality TV Part 1, I would love to see that again!

For this weeks OSS we go back to 1994 and the BS contest in Kansas City. Great riding in this edit from the likes of Edgar Plascensia, Chris Young, Paul Osicka, Day Smith (who won the contest), enjoy this one!

This weeks OSS features Trevor Meyer on the GT World Tour in Brazil in 1997, who of course id still going strong in the current day. This is 17 years old, I am wondering where is the point when something is mid school as opposed to old school?

This weeks OSS features Woody Itson’s 1988 AFA Masters Round 5 run in Wayne, NJ August 27, 1988. Enjoy!
