An article from RAD magazine for a skate competition at The Factory in Dundee in 1989. Scanned by https://www.whenwewasrad.co.uk/
This was when the main ramps were up the top end of the factory at the main gate/door. Sometime after this the ramps were moved down to the bottom part where I shot the video below.

- Did you stay overnight for that jam?
My mate was saying he was there from Livi with a group of guys, they slept under the ramps at night.PhanLo - They were called ‘Team Omlette’PhanLo
- lol, great name.garbage
- hahaha, yeah, that is a great name.Nairn
- "Can't make one without breaking some eggs"Nairn
- Nope, I was at the jam but didnt stay the night. I was about 14 at the time.
Some amazing memories from that place.microkorg - Radnb
- I skated for Angel Lights in the street comp. Landed my first ever ollie blunt on one of the quarter pipes - remember the feeling like it was yesterday.sinjun
- sinjun, that was the skatepark in the church in Glasgow wasnt it? 'Angel Lights'microkorg
- @sinjun nothing like remembering a first. I was always bmx first, but had a board on me. Flatground sessions all the time. I was dead set on learning shuv 3sgarbage
- No idea why. I kept accidentally sending and landing primo flip 3s. In my attempts I did manage to accidentally stomp.. a sex change shuv.garbage
- No idea how that happened, but it will haunt me for the rest of my days.garbage
- Yep @micro. An old church in Anniesland. I used to arrive on a Friday night and stay there till Sunday - Skating and chilling all weekend - Good times.sinjun
- Did you stay overnight for that jam?

- Hauled ass frontside, fakie backside, suicidal hippie bounce (?) on the last set. JFC.garbage
- That's the raddest line I've seen in a long time.garbage
- I stand absolutely corrected. The amputee that 50/50s the rail and hops a gearbag on a hillbomb. I clearly have no idea who the fuck is on Indy these days.garbage
- That's Wes Kremer from San Diego and that last boardslide down the stairs was gnarly!whatthefunk
- It's crazy to me how much is done switch too, these dayswhatthefunk
- I'll have to look him up, dude's a ripper. And yeah.. that second stage board was amazing. I love that he gives it the Caswell Classic.garbage
- I tried to butt focus a board once and my week was over, lol.garbage
