 Kelly McGarry was like a shooting star that shined very bright as he flew over our heads, but only for a short time as he traveled on his OWN PATH across the universe.

We miss you Big Guy. Hope your "heaps tabled" in the afterlife!

 That no handed landing was solid. Will we one day be seeing big tricks landed in that manner? The evolution of progression.

 Jus' remembered this ain't parta FEST. I look at them jumps & think "FEST? McGazz? Both deserve so much better". Maybe this'll bring in the next FEST event & do McGazz some justice 'cuz them lil' smaller than slope, BMX sized jumps ain't gonna cut it.

The thought counts for sump'm though.

 Is there something like this for Stevie smith?
  • 4 0
 The legend of Stevie Smith lives in the Vancouver Island mountains. His home town has also represented hard with the approval and construction of a local bike park, and there is a memorial race in his name at Mt. Washington. Two legends gone way too soon! Love the atmosphere in NZ though, I believe the big man with the flowing locks is looking down on us mortals with his signature grin.
  • 2 1
 Nah, he was just a DHer.

 @brodiedriemel: "us mortals"? I'd say were closer to immortality than he is at the moment. :/

Believe what you like, he ain't watchin' shit from a fvckin' hole in the ground or like a fart in the wind blowin' around. :/

Ugly truths is still truths. :/
