Big Brother and BMX
Juse came through with these photos of an article Big Brother did back in ‘98 or ‘99. I remember the article but I don’t have the issue, so if your eyes are really good you can get the gist of it by clicking the below photos. It’s pretty witty, and basically states that BMXers are insane, and that two of the minds behind Big Brother were former BMXers, which explains the insanity of Big Brother magazine.
Images of skaters are:
Sal Barbier - Pose
Adam McNatt - 360 flyout
Skip Pronier - Stylin’
Brian Patch - Table
Ron Bertino on Jeff tremaine’s bike
Jason Dill / Dead Sailor
Also pictured are Mike Frazier and Robbie Morales in the news section with the caption: “This picture of Mike Frazier and Robbie Morales is a good example of the cliche ‘killing two birds with one stone’, but in this case it’s more like killing one bird and one pachyderm.”
Another funny comment in that issue: “Robbie Morales now pedals around on Standard Bikes to burn off his excessive calorie intake.” Click the below image to see it slightly bigger.
I believe Adam McNant had a skateboard graphics of a bmx rider doing a table top. I have been looking to get one forever.
i used to have that one. classic.
I still have that one around. Big Brother was and will always be my favorite magazine.
