Janky Contest Handrails.
The Birdman does a railslide at the Münster Monster Mastership #8. The contest took place from August 3-6, 1989 in Germany. Tony won the vert and finished 2nd in street. Lance Mountain won the street event. Rounding out the top five were Ray Barbee, Lester Kasai, and Pat Ngoho.
Of note is that the Münster contest marked the debut of high flying Brazilian Lincoln Ueda, who placed 4th in vert. His son now rides for Toy Machine. The other top finishers on the big ramp were Tony Magnusson in 2nd, Jeff Kendall in 3rd, and Buck Smith in 5th.
My mom is doing well with recovery from her operation and things are slowly getting back to some version of normal.

This ran in the 1991 Thrasher calendar.
