For this weeks Old School Sundays, let’s go back to 1987. And none other, than Plywood Hood Mark Eaton’s run from one of the first AFA events held in Pennsylvania. This event was flatland only… Not come across this video before, enjoy!

Not sure if that was the first time, l saw anyone get into a picker that way, or Martin Aparijo. Anyway, unless Lung was nervous, it seems maybe he’d not long learned the steam roller. Happy B’day Lung.
he invented the steamroller, FYI
Oh, by the way, is there any footage you don’t have E. I’m jealous in a good way, though haha.
This was February 1987 and the floor was super slippery, a tight space, and Iām running GT tires with about 75psi . This was a PA AFA comp and I got first in Intermediate.
That was dope Mark!The Christmas tree is awesome,hyped everytime i see you doing that…yeah Lung!!
which AFA contest did you get robbed at because you rode to NWA that pissed off a certain judge? can’t remember if it was before or after this contest…
Yeah Lung! The seat ride was intense
Cool Lung, the second contest here in Melbourne, was held the year before & the first 1, l won, in 82 or 83.Hey Lung, any plans to do another Dorkin, would love to see Kevin, Chase, yourself, but heard you don’t ride anymore.
he still rides, i have footage of him pulling a manual on a quatrerpipe and doing lungspins at this past september’s York Jam!
I thought Kevin invented the steam roller. Seems to be misinterpreted, like some saying a group of break dancers invented flat.
they “co-created” many tricks, but Kevin didn’t invent all of them as most people assume. Mark told me this himself, as i’ve had many enlightening flatland discussions with him the few times so far i’ve flown him down to Florida to DJ for my flatland jams… priceless information for sure š
Priceless alright, but l never assume unlike many. But, truth’s, we only had Bmx Plus, Freestylin, word of mouth to go by , & the fact we were younger then to. Riding still, then great.
so here is internet is now š
