 Here is a memory from Franco's old days travels; joining me for skateboarding nights at Balcatta Rollerdrome around 1987/8 which were compared by Didier Blanquart.

At Mandurah Rollerdrome near where Franco used to work they had two wood surface and aluminium frame vert 1/4 pipes available at skateboarding sessions. These were eventually connected with flat bottom when they were moved to The Edge Skatepark. Our friends Phil Dodd, Kevin Meeks and my brother Jon also attended these skates which sometimes went all night.
