Ode to Jim’s Ramp Jam
An absolute classic from the YouTube vaults. Above is the first heat of Jim’s Ramp Jam, a must-see 1996 mini-ramp contest that features the likes of John Cardiel, Gershon Mosley, Chet Childress, Dan Drehobl, Mark Gonzales and many more. The highlight for me is the footy of Crooks and Cancer Dan as young’uns. Also be sure to check out the second heat (featuring Tim Brauch, Chris Senn, Max Schaaf, Chris Pastras and more) and then, natch, the finals. Good eats.
