When We Was Rad:
Skateboard History from UK Vintage Magazine

More play, less work, more McCann


All work and no play May 1991 Rad MagNo words from Curtis on this page, just more pictures of the time from Vernon. No captions to say who they were, which seems slightly unlike us. At the back of my mind is the thought that maybe Curtis asked for it to be this way?

  1. Yeah, John Gomez (tuck knee mute) and Lee Stewart (frontside lipslide). Both Fairfields locals… Lee rode for M-Zone for a while and was on flow from Blueprint in his later years.
    John ‘The Baron’ Gomez snowboards in the US, I believe. His brothers ripped as well.

  2. the backside lipslide is the one and only ‘JAB’ jon Farmer from manchester on a visit to south bank in the early nineties treating the london crowd to a bit of northern speed and style. Nobody did backside lipslides like r’Jab.
