You know when you are a kid and you see a bad slam, or remember someone as being the best skater in town? Then years later you see the footage again (or the skater) and they are nothing like you remember... The slam was soft, the skater was fat and can barely ollie. I was worried that this was the case with this Hosoi slam from a 1985 Mt Trashmore contest. My good friend Dave Messick filmed this, and I'm pretty sure he is the only one that did. He originally showed me the footage around 1995 and I was blown away...You see, Hosoi just didn't slam like that! Especially when he was doing his trademark airs on the edge of the ramp. I called Dave a few months ago to dig it out of the vaults, and it was just as good if not better then i remembered!! Enjoy this piece of history! < less

He must have left some of that fat you mentioned on the ramp. Maybe it was cheaper than liposuction. Did they even have that back then..the mind wonders. Thanks for sharing this Jesse.
