Chris Miller #11.



This is the way, step inside.

The photo is by Chip Morton. Interestingly, Chip would go on to start the Limpies clothing brand.

I'm surprised to see Chris skating in Nikes in 89, thought he would have had a "skate" shoe sponsor (vans, airwalk etc).

Not that I know of. Welcome used the line in one of their ads and since Miller now has a board with them, I went with it. Work was a little busy yesterday.

This photo might be from 1988 still since the ad was in April of 1989. I think Miller had at least one other ad wearing the same shoes. It was for Gullwing and he was doing a wallride. I know he was on Airwalk, but I don't think he got any ads until later in 1989.
