Scott Johnston #7.



Street signage.

The tail end of Scott's pro career saw him hitting up the handrails and flatbars. Nothing that would make the cut for Zero, but he was up on them banisters. It's a good note to end on before becoming a full time shoe designer.

Anybody else remember a sequence of Brian Howard doing a noseslide down the escalator curb to the side of the nine stair rail at the Brooklyn Banks? It would have run before the summer of 1999. I don't think I'm making this up because it stuck with my memory since it was a vert guy hitting the streets. I thought it was a Planet Earth ad from 1994 or 1995, but I found nothing in a quick search last night.
