Per Welinder... , he and rodney were the top 2 flatland skaters for a long time in the late eighties.. he came to eugene oregon and put on a demo at the mall.. only about 8 of us showed up so we got to hang out with him all day.. guy was INSANE .. 3 of the 8 ended up buying the flatland style boards (typical board at the time was much larger).. no one could do anything like Per. (pronounced "Pear").. i could do some flip tricks but that was about it..
damn those were some good times...
i think this video of rodney is about 5 years old .. maybe more.. guys been doing this stuff for decades.
