Mig you are so lucky you are not in any of those break dance pictures. I'd have to kick your ass:tongue:

It so funny to see that regardless of how we are seperated by time and geography, we are alike. Fatboy has shown me a photo album like that with argyl socks and hightop converse. I wore a cowboy bandana for years.

We were slaves to skate fashion:lol:

On était vraiment chanceux d'avoir des amis passionés de photos et qui étudiaient au CEGEP de Matane en photographie.

Festival de la Crevette en Juin '76 ou '77 (perte de mémoire...). C'était, à ma connaissance, la première compétition de skate dans tout le Bas St-Laurent/Gaspésie. Suite à celle-là et le même été, y en a eu à Rimouski et Mont-Joli. Ça s'est répété pendant 2 ou 3 ans, je crois. L'Naz et moi, on s'échangeait la 1ère et 2ième place dans le slalom à toutes les compé...

Par la suite, ces contests ce sont transformés en démos et ramp jams annuels.

Hip hop culture and punk had a close link back then and had a lot in common. The blonde dude was the drummer and later the singer of our band. Actually, our skate crew owes a lot to those break dancers. They were a major part of it (they all skated). They toured the bars doing demos and entering all break dance contests. They won every single one of them. They gave ALL the money they made towards building (and later maintaining) our half-pipe ramp (24' wide, 8.5' high, 10' flat bottom).

Yeah, but at least back then we had to make our own fashion and we didn't all look a like.

Skate fashion was about DIY and not about wearing the "flavour of the month" brand...

re: breakdance pictures

Very cool of them to fund your half pipe. There was no link between hip hop and punk where I grew up.

BUT

If you start popping and locking on a start ramp any time soon, I'm still going to puch you in the bathing suit area.

If I ever do it, you have my permission to do so.
