Hi everyone...Jeff asked about a clip from the Movie Rad....

I now have a clip up from the Highschool Dance. Send me a Angel!!! Music you Can Dance too!!

RIght now its sitting on the Home Page of www.bmxfreestyler.com and in the Video section

Enjoy!!

Mark

always awesome to watch!

now that damn song is stuck in my head! lol.

Thanks Mark!

I havent seen it in SO long!! lol

Awesome I'll have to watch the movie again, that was a blast from the past.

Thanks Mark, lol this scene always makes me feel so uneasy. Probably because I know that there are about 5 different guys stunt riding for Cru and Lori (or whatever her name is in the movie...my speakers are broken).

How many dances have you attended that actually had a play by play announcer?

It's funny that they completely ignore the fact that there are straight cables on both bikes, despite the fact that the bars are spinning like crazy. The freewheel/directdrive switcheroo I can ignore but even a non BMX'er might wonder how they got away with the bars spinning with brake cables.

must resist........must resist.....

wasn't martin aparijo a double for christian in this scene? and fiola was cru?

just watched it.... Even cheesier than I remember it! PERFECT!!

I love when she's 'posing' on the bike. It so obvious the thing is mounted to a metal rack so it doesnt move.

Don't forget Pat Romano. Oh and for some reason I thought they hauled in Fred Blood do to the decade...but I could be wrong there. I would imagine that Woody and Martin would have been on top of that...although the decade sure does look "Fred Bloodish" to me (no offense Martin/Woody/Eddie if it's really you).

i have the remixed techno version of send me an angel if anyone wants it. this movie wasa "lori's' big start then moving up to full house with the cracked out olsen twins and then on to a TV series

This is a good clip to catch the purple GT block stem on Cru's Mongoose....

Stephen

Woody wasn't in RAD. He had a busted foot at the time of filming.

It's clearly Martin doing the infinity roll at the end.

And as Strike said - Pat Romano is doing a LOT of the riding in that footage.

Weren't some of you guys thinking about re-shooting (reenacting) the opening scene and credits, you should go ahead and reenact this scene while your at it!

Who wants to wear those 4 inch heals while doing a slow motion timemachine?

Now that would be something to watch!

If your bored at work today you could always watch the whole thing:

WOW the whole moive on the Internet!!! Awesome!! This is a timeless movie that I hold near and dear to my heart...as most of you already know.

Keep on Riding!!!...your welcome all!!!

Mark

the whole movie? i know how i'm killin' time during third shift tonight! lol. thanks for the link 87!

I'm not sure what's more bizarre, that scene in Rad, or the Star Wars Bar in Tatooine.

Greedo looks normal compared to some of the outfits in that scene from Rad.

hey thanks for the link was missing it for too long going through my rad withrawls lmao

My favorite is the close up of Cru doing the cherrypicker. He's hopping up and down but the bike isn't moving. Man, we are too spoiled now in the "CG days". Gotta love the good old days.

Yeah I remember laughing our butts off about that scene dude.

Oh yeah what ever happened to my soundtrack tape I gave you? Long gone I guess.

Later,
Jeff

I have the sound track cassette around here some place...

Stephen

seriously, does anyone know if we'll ever get an official dvd release of this?

i'm always tempted to buy the homemade ones off of ebay, but every time i tell myself, "oh they'll probably just release it next year"...and then it never comes.

:::sigh:::

DVD HAS BEEN RELEASED, www.sportwheels.ca had it at one time
