Beautiful photo - that freshfaced teenager in the skateside shirt third from the right is Ally Barr.
Was that a snapback that Adams was doing or a gnarly grind that went wrong.....and did he make it?

You can take the Boy out of Kettering but you can't take Kettering out of the Boy K-Boyz

Hey Brad
Howzit down under ?
Yes it was a "Snap-Back-Gnarler" As i recall he did make it quite a few times.
He showed me a cool new trick that night. A Frontside Cess slide.
That is Jeremy Henderson in the midle looking just as blown away as all the K-Boys (and girls)

Nice to see the post to help Jay out. Ego Skates is releasing our Jay Adams decks late Jan. early Feb. The first to be availible is a very limited run or 20. They will go fast as for Jay and myself will each be keeping one and Ego Skates has had many calls about the deck already. So help a bro and his family out and grab one while you can. This is only an example of what they will look like. The first 20 are alittle different which will make them a great collector. However some that don't understand the graphic off the first 20 find it alittle harsh. I will post a pic of the first 20 as soon as they are finished and availible. They will all be an oldschool cut, not a popstix.  |

Jay has been back in since November 06 but I think is due to be released sometime mid 08. You'll find recent interviews with him in the current Juice and Concussion magazines.
There was a benefit for him last year to raise money for his defence. You can see footage on You tube.
He sounds like he's in pretty good shape considering his position. I wrote to him earlier in the year and he sent back a 3 page letter detailing some skate sessions and travels and also some skate art which he'd done.
He's the coolest.
