Admin S.Brothers Posted November 20, 2014 Admin Share Posted November 20, 2014 There is always something fascinating about a factory rider who rides a bike from a company other than his sponsors. Blyther from first issue of Freestylin' - Summer 84 issue. TA with Bottemas March, 1984.... not sure, I've seen it called a Patterson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chromey Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Amazing pics of Blyther! Was he riding a real Huffy? I know Stu and others raced some restickered RL's and Skyways at some point - due to the unfortunate Huffy geometry. i imagine riding ramp woul dbe even harder with a big lazy head tube angle. But Flyin' Brian is amazing anyway - I'm sure he could get any old bike to go way up in the sky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chromey Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Some random Blyther goodness I've saved on the ol' computer over the years. (sorry I don't know who to credit for the shots — most probably Oz & Windy, but there are some gems from regular old freestyle fans out there too). Dom Phipps posted a lot of these on an old Haro thread a long time ago. Too good not to save for my own archives. And... This is my all time absolute favorite pic of Brian Blyther. -------------------- 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin S.Brothers Posted November 20, 2014 Author Admin Share Posted November 20, 2014 Huffy era... unattributed photos from internet I will see if I can track down the magazines. Probably 1984 if anyone wants to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djdemo Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Great post. Other than maybe Mike D, I haven't seen anyone go higher on a 1/4 pipe than Brian Blyther. Here's a few more to add to the thread! I got these from Dave Nourie a few years back. Jeff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin S.Brothers Posted December 5, 2014 Author Admin Share Posted December 5, 2014 Jeff, those photos are sick. This photo is so outstanding. I cropped it, for the dub version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
