HOW TONY HAWK WON THE GNARLIEST POOL COMP EVER

The year 1985. Considered by many as the gnarliest pool ever, The Upland Pipeline Combi Pool, was the location for Rage In The Badlands event was one of the most notorious skate contests of all time. Heros were made, and dues were paid. Part of the judging criteria was using the entire pool. Big, rough and sporting huge coping, the only way to survive this behemoth was to attack it with power, and the formula to hoisting the first place trophy would be to combine that power with high speed carving, linking lines with combos of tricks on the burly vert walls, and in 1985, whoever did that best and landed a McTwist would walk away a champion. There was zero margin for error, as perhaps the greatest performer ever here, and everyone's pick to win the event, Chris Miller, took one of the gnarliest slams ever this day. That left the field open, especially with both The GOAT Christian Hosoi and high flying daredevil Lester Kasai, although ripping, injured and not firing on all cylinders. Tony Hawk was inventing tricks on the daily and Lance Mountain was coming in hot, having recently added the McTwist to his well rounded repertoire. McGill's machine like ripping would be hard to beat and Stevie Caballero was always a threat to take the win on any terrain. It was impossible to ignore that this would be a day the the Bones Brigade would reign supreme, the only question was which of Stacy's prodigies had the endurance and passion to put it all together and come out on top. Hard to believe this was 40 years ago. It was day skaters are still talking about this day, and always will be.
