Did you know the first 540’s were done on Roller Skates!
1987 Steam zine featuring Brian Wainwright by Rick Steamboat Charnoski
You have to turn your head to look at this blast from the past! Frontside 540’s way back in the day….too crazy.
If you have the best of something let people know! The House of Steam and Team Steam have Brian.
Nice One!!
Brian is living and ripping in N.C. and his Brother Morris is doing the same in Seattle.
