Matt Mumford #8.
Strong armed.
Invisible did a little remodeling in 1997. They even took a couple months off from advertising to do so. Dave Bergthold and the crew came up with a series of vibrant ads featuring the team skating some big obstacles in front of a yellow and orange wall. I think this might have been the last run for Invisible since a lot of the team found new sponsors afterward. Matt would soon join former Invisible rider Jamie Thomas at Zero. I like how they tried something a little different, even if it maybe didn't work out in the end.
Here's the remodeling ad:
They ran a three pager with the dots ahead of Matt's 50-50. I wanted to include that for the sake of the tale.
