Hector the Hardcore Hippy


Hector the Hardcore Hippy by Graham MacEachranThe legendary Mac was responsible for pioneering freestyle/street/bank crossovers (540 on banks, anyone?), the original Death Box graphics, and the R.a.D cartoon for a while.

I wonder where he is now? In 2007 Jeremy Fox was trying to track him down for the Death Box European reunion, but had a bit of a struggle.

Mac, if you’re reading this, I hope it’s OK to have this scan here?

  1. Mac is living in Hackney – or was in 2008.
    Deacon got us to go pick him up on the recent Flip tour in the UK to come watch some ‘modern street skating’.

    Poor old Mac looked a bit confused as to how it had all changed!
